I understand that in post #69, it says that the current 4.0 already includes the betas and therefore can be updated without load parameteres from backup
I just tried it and it works fine
that should work already. What happens when you try it?
I’ve just released plane 4.0.1beta1. Changes are:
- Added Q_ASSIST_ALT parameter which offers a way for VTOL assistance at low altitudes
- fixed channels 5 and 6 on the MatekF765-Wing
- fixed a bug with sending data on a full UART in mavlink parameter download
- added TECS_LAND_PMIN for constraining pitch minimum during landing
- fixed use of UAVCAN primary GPS with UART secondary GPS
- fixed failover between rangefinders of same orientation
- added RC option for TAKEOFF mode
- fixed logging of current on secondary battery monitors
- fixed register checking on DPS280 for mRoControlZeroF7
- added clock panel to OSD
- fixed B/E led brightness on Pixhawk4
- support RTCM injection to UAVCAN GPS for RTK support
Happy flying!

Awesome work!!
Thanks a lot!!
if i plug one one more into CAN 1 as the label are wrong on my carrier board i lose all leds and get the msg no gps found
What is the difference between TECS_LAND_PMIN and LAND_PITCH_CD?

well, this is embarrassing. While I was working on landing for an aircraft I had thought that LAND_PITCH_CD also applied to pre-flare, but it doesn’t. So the two parameters are actually the same. I’ll remove TECS_LAND_PMIN for the 4.0.1 final. Thanks very much for your question!

Hi Tridge,
Is there an estimation on when or even if you will enable the camera switching on the F765-Wing FC?
I am aware that there are more important features and issues to implement and solve but I’m just asking because this feature would be really interesting to have as the board is equipped with it.
Regards
Hello!
It would be really nice to have FPORT support for Frsky users…
@tridge Do you need additional testing for the SDP33 sensor BUG? Please tell me how to help then.
I have a PH1 and Cube Black here for testing.
Channels 5 and 6 on the MatekF765-Wing, working!!!

Thats awesome news but I’ll wait for the “Stable” version as the plane is not cheap…
Tested the 4.0.1 B1 and still bootloops …
It is fixed in master. The fix will be in the 4.0.1 final release

I have a fport receiver now, and plan on working on supporting the protocol. It won’t make it into 4.0.1 though as it is a fairly complex protocol to add.

I don’t have cameras setup on my F765 board, but looking at the schematic I think it may be that we support this already as the pin is already setup as a user controllable GPIO which can be used as a relay pin. Can you please try the following:
- set RELAY_PIN = 82
- set RC7_OPTION = 28 (can be any free RC channel)
that should give you control over pin PE15 which is the camera switching pin.
Similarly you can do this:
- set RELAY_PIN2 = 81
- set RC8_OPTION = 34
and RC8 should then give you control over pin PE4, which is the Vsw power switching pin.
Please let me know if this works. If it does we should add it to the docs.

Yes – Matek confirmed to me this already works and I have tested it. See post.

Thats really awesome!!!
Unfortunately I am not able to test it this week because I’m out of town but knowing that it is confirmed is a huge step forward and it only proves that this matek F765 is a great FC along with Arduplane on it
Thanks!!!
I have a problem since I updated to 4.0. When setting the Amperes per Volt value in Battery monitor 2. I write the appropriate value but it is not fixed, when I open it again it is empty.
If I modify it from parameter BATT2_AMP_PERVLT, it also appears empty
Pixhawk2
Planer Mission 1.3.68
BATT_MONITOR = 4
BATT2_MONITOR = 4
BATT_VOLT_PIN = 2
BATT2_VOLT_PIN = 13
BATT_CURR_PIN = 3
BATT2_CURR_PIN = 14
