Utilising ELRS with Holybro 6X v8

General
1

Hi,

I’m trying to configure a Holybro 6x v8 flight controller such that I can use my ELRS transmitter. I understand that CRSF is not automatically enabled under the firmware so have used this guide CRSF Telemetry (TBS Crossfire Telemetry) | PX4 Guide (main) to enable the CRSF RC protocols. I can build the firmware as the guide suggests but as I try and upload the firmware it gives me a hardware ID conflict (57 Vs 53) and hence doesn’t update.

Can anyone give me any advice…am i editing the wrong source firmware (GitHub - PX4/PX4-Autopilot: PX4 Autopilot Software · GitHub) or perhaps doing anything else incorrectly??

Thanks

Yes, you are on the wrong forum. This is an ArduPilot forum. And ArduPilot firmware is not PX4 firmware. Both support MAVLink but they have different codebases, different architectures and different parameter sets.

Understood, so I originally loaded an ArduPilot firmware onto the FC, I could bind my TX to my RX but could not see the control inputs in Mission Planner. Is there something else I need to do in ArduPilot to get it to see my CRSF link?

Have you followed Crossfire and ELRS RC Systems — Copter documentation ?

You will want to review the Arducopter 6X specific wiki entry also. See The RC Input Section
