Hello,

unfortunately no change in altitude is displayed for me, it just stays at 0.
The speed is displayed as expected.
Can anyone confirm this?

I use the Spirit Pro (3.3.1) and Geolink (1.2.1) and DC 16II.

cheers

Please note, you have to fly. Altitude measurement is relative from the ground. When model is not flying, it is taking as zero altitude.
So it is starting to measure from the point your model will lift off.

Sorry for the somewhat late reply, unfortunately could not earlier.
I have tested it in the meantime in the flying helicopter.

Speed is displayed with km/h whereby this seems much too low to me.
I suspect here rather that it is m/s. That would fit about.
At Altitude has unfortunately changed nothing, it remained at 0.

Can this please be checked and corrected.

Thank you very much.

Hi ZeXx86 and Gerrybru

I can confirm a similar behaviour about the altitude telemtry sensor.
The value shows 0 m height and it doesn't change ...
As it was to late to drive to the flying area yesterday I tested in the backyard
and had very limited space ; the helicopter was in hover at about 10m height.

The speed sensor showed changes during this short hover and seemed to work.
( I can't judge about the true speed ... )

Spirit RS (3.3.1) / Geolink (1.2.1) and DC 24

Kind Regards
Roland

I can see the telemetry in sensors S Altitude, however it displays only "-" in my radio.
I have latest Jeti FW, latest 3.3.1 driver in my radio and using Spirit GT

any comments?

It is enough to enable GeoLink feature. Then value will be updated.

Oh, did I miss something?
Does this need to be turned on by flag?
I don't always use the height limit.

As already written, also the speed seems to me clearly too low.
I will test this in the near future.

Hi Tomas, first off, just confirm if this should work with a Spirit Pro, Geolink, REX 10 and DS24?? All on latest firmware.

The speed does show movement but no idea if accurate.
The Altitude shows on the screen as 0' but doesn't move during flight, nor show any change in the Log in Jeti.
Very odd that the options for Altitude includes Km!! Branson or Bezos a customer??!!
Can the Speed display have an option for MPH as well??
Thanks

Hi, with the current firmware Altitude is not shown for Spirit Pro. But upcoming firmware will change it. During next week I guess.
