Sorry to see the destruction Ian.

Happy to see Dennis and Mihai colaborating on this.
There has to be something fundamentally wrong here and perhaps it needs a complete re-vamp and start from scratch.
I wish I could help in some way, but I'm not a code writer.

Can someone explain what Mihai means? Is there a bug in version 3.5? I flew yesterday over 3km away without problems.
Should i downgrade to 3.1?

shit thats bad. right...

!!! IMPORTANT !!!
everyone using my fw please revert back to 3.1 ( fw that had rssi on pin 7 ) for the time being. I'm deeply in exams so can't work on the olrs atm until after the 19th of May.

Thanks.

HAHAHAHAHA laughed so hard lol.

I mean if you have problems with the latest fw then revert back to 3.1. In order to get rssi working again ( it was broken in 3.4) I had to re-map all the pins on the rx and that apparently broke something and the rssi drops without any reason.

Seers, u having any problems so far ? what hw version are you using ?

as a side note Mihai = Michael in english :D

Mihai.

I use a V1 TX
V1 RX on a HK Bixler with Dennis DIY OSD (RSSI is working well)

V2 RX on my Tricopter with PPM (Without OSD)

V2 RX on a "Knurrus Maximus FPV" Delta wing currently without RSSI on the OSD (also the DIY OSD from Dennis).

Version 3.5 works until now perfectly.  :D

thundead

so no range problems whatsoever. lol figures as I haven't messed with the v1 hw pins haha. I guess I'll revert the pinout on v2 hardware then. Glad its working good for you

Can you provide some details of your setup? IE Antennas, frequency and settings

Thanks

Brett

seeers

I use a Nagoya NA 771 antenna on the TX which I put on a tripod on my car roof.

on the RX i use a selfmade Dipole antenna

I have attached a picture of my "groundstation" with 2 Video RX and the OpenLRS TX

thundead

Cool setup Seers :D are you using a booster ? also what distances have u flown ?

I dont use a booster. My new record was some days ago 3100m with a RSSI of 2,2V, i think there is room for more, but the video signal was bad. :)
