Ok, just to close this off… I had a break from trying to figure this out and came back to it yesterday, powered on the transmitter and then the plane and (drum roll) it’s now working. I didn’t change anything! Whaaaaa?

Now, after playing around with the startup sequence I’ve realised that if mission planner (or QGC) is on, with the Mavlink transmitter plugged into the PC, then I can’t get the widget to display telemetry (just says NO TELEMETRY) on the receiver. Not sure what is going on here. Has anyone else observed this? Is this a feature maybe that stops SPort if mavlink transmission is detected? I’ve got it working, but it was a rabit hole that ate lots of time, so if it’s a feature, maybe it should be documented and if it’s a bug then maybe raise an issue on github?

Hi Alex,

Your script seems to cause problems with the Ethos 1.5.0 release up to emergency mode. Can you please take a look at it?

If you need help with debugging please let me know.

what radio are you using ?

The errors were reported with an X20S in our local forum.

sure, any easy way to reproduce it?

Nothing more is displayed. It worked perfectly with Ethos 1.4.7.

I can test it myself in a few days (X18SE). It will probably look like this too.

Did you try the patched version specific for ethos 1.5 I posted above?

No, To be honest, I hadn’t seen this version yet … I’ll let you know if it works.

Thanks Alex

I have now done it, it works great, thank you!

I have one wish: could the pause function of the widget be activated as default in the settings? I often have to change the ELRS settings, but it doesn’t work when the widget is active. So back again, widget on pause, back to the HF setup …

I was just going to ask that. Took the step from 1.4.xx to 1.5.3 this morning. Found the link to Alex’s new lua but I just get the artificial horizon, no numbers. And map not working.
