RSSI display problem

Posted by David Leigh on June 27, 2013 at 6:34am

When using the Mission Planner to fly a task I monitor the HUD screen carefully.

I have just found out the RSSI reading on the HUD does not show the actual value of the RSSI when flying it only shows 99%   or  0% when signal is lost.     When I play back the TLOG of the task it then does show the actual value of the RSSI.

I had been relying on the HUD to be sure I was flying in full control all the time.

Can this safety item be corrected.

    What about the RSSI and noise figures in the tuning screen for telem?
    Although packet loss is what it's all about RF RSSI is more linear and can give one a heads up on range.

    the hud shows packet loss, not rssi. hence why its a percentage and not a db number.

    It works fine on mine.

    Are you looking at the telemetry RSSI or RC Rx RSSI? The one defaulted on the HUD is the telem RSSI.
