I've got:

Spirit Pro
RX8R Pro RX
X9D se TX fully updated.

I've tried everything to get telemetry working on this thing, every kind of bind mode, upgraded firmware, bought another RX8R Pro just in case the first one was busted. I bought another Frsky integration cable from the Spirit store too.

I've bound an X8R and an S8R and instantly get telemetry.

What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

I am afraid but it look like a compatibility problem.
We will contact FrSky to find what they changed in the protocol for these receivers in order to make it compatible.

Eventually it could be solved within few days.

I think that you are not doing any mistake.

Hello,

they answered, but they wish to have a video of how it is not working.
Could you record a short footage of entering the integration menu and/or scanning/displaying the telemetry variables, please?

I am not sure if you are using OpenTX or not but telemetry should work in any case.

This could help them.

Hopefully they can figure it out. I've been scratching my head trying to figure out why I had no telemetry very either, tried 2 different x8r pro's, and 2 diff radios.
Also seems too stop the Lua configuration scripts from working properly too for me on both a Horus x10s and taranis x9d plus , both running latest firmware / open tx

They are already examining the video. It was very helpful!
I am very interested what they will find.
