Dear Sir/Madam,

Hello, I'm currently enjoying using a Spirit GTR running version 4.0.4 R2. Previously, I used a Kavan GPS sensor with an expander, but the GPS signal acquisition was very slow. So I opted for a newer model, but unfortunately, it's not being detected. I'd like to connect a Powerbox V GPS sensor to it. Could you please tell me the procedure to follow?

Thank you.

Well, I’ve finally found the solution: to make it work, I separated the signal wire from the GPS connector and connected it to the signal input for the EXT port, while connecting the rest of the GPS plug to the AUX port.

You can also use E1 port after changing it to JETIBOX/Sensor type.

Then you can connect Scorpion ESC telemetry directly to Spirit unit using SAT1 port. No need to use E1.

Hello,

According to the online manual, the only available telemetry ports are E1 and Ext, with the option to use up to 8 sensors via a Jeti expander. Unfortunately, this solution does not work, and there is no mention of the possibility of using the SAT port, nor is there any wiring diagram provided.
