It uses a JR style module doesnt it so openLRS will work? Its speaking to me too Rich, or maybe that's just the firmware :)

The Flytron system is designed for Futaba so they sell and extra bit to make the pins fit a JR type module.  I want all that telemetry coming back... And speaking to me.  Remember when I got about 4 beeps from different electronic devices all at once.... A voice alert would fix all

Can't wait for mine to arrive - I'm told by T9 that it's on it's way!!! ;D

Does anyone know how to access the extra channels - will I need a second receiver connected to the Rx smartport or what?? (?)

Basically, I will be wanting channels for the following: 1 ch E, 1 ch A, 1 ch R, 1 ch T, 2 ch Flaps, 2 ch pan and tilt, 1 ch Camera control, 1 ch osd control, 1 ch RTH and PA / stabilization. That makes 11 channels of in-plane functions - if I counted right! :-[

How will I be able to do this using the Taranis, and which Rx(s) and or extra bits will I require???

Up until now I've been using a 9X with Frsky module and  FrSky D8R-II Plus Rx, with 4 chs for RETA, 1 ch Flaps, 2 Chs pan and tilt, 1 ch stabilizer.

What sort of price will these be, and where to buy?

you can either run the X8r got 8 traditional output and a 16ch Sbus output - frsky is selling a 4ch sbus decoder that plugs into the sbus port and gives you another 4 pwm outs. That means you have 12 channels to play with

or you can use 2 X8R recievers for 16 channels pwm.

Thanks a lot!! Nice simple explanation ;D
