Hello,

I just discover JD-IOboard that look bot very powerful and cheap but i have doubt how to connect if you have telemetry port busy from 3dRadio ... on i2c port? need sw personalization? or just plug and play?

tks

i do not understand relation between pattern and output pin ... how assign a pattern to a specific pin or group of 3 pin to manage rgb in the config sw?

On current APM2.x it self no but it is possible to do on IOBoard via small software modifications. GPS lock is visible on MAVLink and so is ARMED/DISARMED. Gyro initialization i am not sure did we have any messages for that.

Stefano, you use same pins as 3D Radio. Eg. make Y cable that goes both your radio and jD-IOBoard.

Take a look at jDrones/jDoc site to find more. Here is one helping picture that illustrates how to connect them:
