After updating to latest Copter Master (4.1.0-dev) Frsky telemetry back to the Transmitter (Yaapu script) is no longer working. Flash back to Stable and it’s good. I tested this on 2 different PixRacers. This was discovered while experimenting with Andy’s bi-directional Dshot but the problem is not in his release.
Anyone else see this?
Hi Dave,
I won’t be able to test till later today, I do have a pixracer so I should be able to reproduce it, what receiver and firmware are you testing with?
I was running
2020-12-20 13:19:43.79: STATUSTEXT {severity : 6, text : ArduPlane V4.1.0dev (84e578b3), id : 0, chunk_seq : 0}
with passthrough telemetry without issue.
Hi Alex- Both have R9 Rx’s on ACCST FCC (an R9 and a R9MM-OTA). To Peter’s point the version of Arducopter is V4.1.0-dev (662814d6) from yesterday.
I just repeated the test on the one with the R9MM and when flashed back to V4.0.5 telemetry returns.
…I don’t have that receiver, I do have an R9mm and an R9mini non OTA though, I’ll test with those, should be pretty close to your setup (I’ll be on flex @100mW)
Dave sport or fport?
Sport on these
Something odd. I saved the -dev parameter file from yesterday and when comparing it to todays RC_OPTIONS was set at 32. I don’t know how that got there and it’s not a valid bitmask value. But anyway today’s is back to 0 and no-go
@dkemxr Dave first quick test on a Pixracer v1 + X8R on ACCST D16 V1.x does not show any issues, tested bidir frsky too, next is the R9 rx/tx combo.
EDIT: working fine with R9mm on flex v20190201
OK, thanks a lot for testing Alex. It must be Something on my end I’ll have to figure out.
I don’t know if this clue will help me but as this screenshot shows it is receiving telemetry otherwise the NO TELEMETRY message would be present.
Same setup flashed to 4.0.5 Stable:
And it happesn on 2 different Pixracers. A head scratcher so far…
launch the /TOOLS/Yaapu Debug.lua script, it will show if you’re receiving passthrough packets
No, no packets received. I thought I was on to something but no, still stumped.
Can it be related to this issue: FrSky telemetry (yaapu) working on F405, failing on BB Blue - ArduPlane / Plane 4.0 - ArduPilot Discourse
I’m getting no telemetry either. Using R-XSR.
I don’t think so unless you have it working on current Stable and it fails on the latest 4.1.0-dev. This is what I am seeing with 2 Pixacers that have been working fine since the Yaapu LUA was released.
Dave might be worth doing a bisection and find the commit that broke it for you?
I first noticed it trying Andy’s bi-directional Dshot which is based on Master but it’s not in his code because when I revert to “regular” Master the problem is still there.
Heading out of town for a bit to beat this cold weather, will pick it up in the New Year!
Thanks and Happy Holidays,
Dave
