FrSky Integration with Ethos, S.Port & F.Port

Then it works correctly. Your model is producing too low vibrations without blades.

Ok, thanks i will test the value during flight

Hello,
will there be a new version of the LUA with the missing functions?
Like the parameters of the governor or reading out the event log.

Also interested in the missing pages of the ethos lua scripts(governor,logs ,servo travel correction etc). Is this something that is going to be updated in the near future? Would be very handy to have. Thankyou.

[ZeXx86]

Certainly there will be update as we are doing for everything else.

Hello,

this is very good. FrSky told us that S.Port is not supported for EthOS and integration.
We know that it works with some receivers but we dont know if this support will still work in the future.
We hope that yes. The list of tested receivers could be great.

Just FYI:
I reached out to my main HQ contact at FrSky and he said that S.Bus/S.Port integration have always been supported on FrSky's side, and it will always be supported. Since to my (and his) knowledge, the Lua/integration script is agnostic to the communication protocol used between RX and FC.

If you find a receiver that does not work with integration, regardless of protocol it uses, let me know - it's likely something in the firmware and can be fixed, assuming it has already been confirmed to not be something on the Spirit firmware/Lua side.

The reason I am just now replying to this is because I had the thread bookmarked on Page11 and failed to notice it had moved on by a couple pages

If you're looking for receivers that DON'T work with S-BUS /S.Port, then you don't need to look any further than the first post.

RX4R, RX6R, R-XSR, Archer RS, Radiomaster R161, RadioMaster R168.

I know the Radiomaster receivers are not FrSky, rather they're D16 clones, but by the same token, this should also affect any D16 compatible receivers FrSky included.

I had good luck with the 3.5.0 firmware, X20s, Archer R4, Spirit2 and integration cable using f.port - everything seems to work in lua script on ethos.

I have now testet Position Hold and Altitude Hold.
Both function works very well.
Sometimes the helicopter pumps around the set altitude.
I think this is due to the low vertican gain and the wind, because my Goblin Buddy is very sensitive to pitch.
I think the software works very well

S.PORT integration always worked with FrSky from the beginning, this is true. But not with EthOS. They want to move away from this protocol and use new F.BUS. We also recommend it since it is faster and more reliable protocol. At least in theory. In practise it will show later.
