I'm getting confused by all of the upgrades / backwards :)

When you upgrade have you re-discovered sensors?

No, I haven't rediscovered.
All of the previously discovered sensors still worked and I was afraid of having to reconfigure all of my special functions and lipo monitor.

I'm on OTX 2.3.7, latest multiprotocol software, spirit 3.0.

If my rxsr is on v1.9 my integration scripts work but cause all other telemetry to stop.
If my rxsr is on 2.1 my integration scripts don't show any data.

Also are you using V2.7 of the LUA script?

I have the same problem since more than 3 years with X12, X10 and X7.
After starting any script, one out of 3 times, I get sensor lost but also signal lost and a Failsafe reporting in FBL log.
While doing basic Config, I just go to last page and hit Save "*" to get "ok" once or twice and Signal normally recovers.
It's more annoying during reading out the Log File, as reading of previous log is causing log of current session as signal gets lost again.
It requires 3-4 readouts to get log deleted. Having said so, I have got a workaround but looking forward to clean integration.

Hi, same issue here too as the original poster. Everything is fine until I go into integration, then I hear SENSOR LOST and I can never recover Hobbywing telemetry.

I’m about 40 feet away outdoors when this happens.

• uSpirit 2.8
• RXSR firmware 2.1.0 FCC
• Horus X10S ACCST
—OpenTX 2.3.5
—Internal TX module iXJT firmware 2.1.0 FCC

Is there anyone that DOESNT have this issue that could post their TX/RX equipment and firmware and OpenTX version?

The issue is if you’re in OpenTX integration, there’s all telemetry data being sent from the FBL (eg, Hobbywing telemetry) stops working and you cannot get any telemetry values again until after restarting the FBL unit.

I will check mine for you. I haven't touched it in 5 months due to the Covid-19 lockdown.

Mine is working perfectly on two helis
OXY 2 micro Spirit, R-XSR and QX7 on V2.1.0 LBT OTX 2.3.7
Mini Protos Original Spirit, XSR on V2.1.0 LBT

Get full telemetry from HW 25 + Spirit on OXY 2, on Mini Protos get Spirit telemetry + telemetry from ardiono based sensors.

OpenTx integration also works fine on both.

I think that I re-discovered sensors - but not sure, why wouldn't you if you are having issues?

Mine is working perfectly despite the few sensor lost messages that get announced when you enter the integration page. I am using Frsky Rx8r pro in redundancy mode with a Frsky R-xsr as the redundant receiver. They are both using Frsky ACCST LBT version 2.1.0 firmware and the XJT module in the Taranis Qx7s is also uses firmware ACCST LBT version 2.1.0. I am still using Opentx version 2.2.4.

Here is a video I took. You can see Telemetry still works after exiting the Integration. When I shake the heli, the "fuel" value in the Telemetry screen shows the vibrations. Also the esc temperature value from the esc is working. I couldn't test mAh consumed current as I had the heli on the bed lol. Lockdown police still preventing people from flying in Wales where I am at the girlfriend's.
