Release Discussion
We have a release tag:
Bug report / Q&A
1- @conor_strat : Not having any connectivity using St-link and CubeOrange Plus.
@dagar The initial solution for now is to check gdb-server and the versions mismatching. If not working, then we can work around other solutions.
2- @TOTON95 What is the status of CSRF/ELRS adaption to the PX4 supported boards?
@dagar @MaEtUgR There are to options to use the CRSF protocol:
- Either over UART with the dedicated CSRF RC driver for which you connect TX and RX to a UART e.g. Telem1 port and then have all features like telemetry, the bind command that’s about to be added.
- Connect the receiver’s TX port to the RC in board which then uses either the IO or FMU’s monolytic driver to just parse the unidirectional input without telemetry and so on.
We recommend using option 1 if you have a spare UART port and care about best possible support.
Relevant PR and docs link:
3- Marlene: A custom-made driver is written and cannot be launched. The driver is needing i2c.
@dagar check with i2c detect
command first to find out which address your sensor is on and then initialize your driver accordingly based on that port.
