Ican Hi, first of all thanks for fast replay, now I can not understand what you explain, I bought my rabbit in "Goodluckbuy" (buy bad luck), the standard barometer, was not good (jumping all time) and I changed to 5611 CGS board, all work ok except CH8, then I have Goodluckbuy board with standard, baro boot program. CGS 5611 mod baro and 10k resistor. all ok no complaints, super stable , only ch8 not work
Thanks anyway

Old Rabbit = Standard Bosch Baro:

I'm sorry I don't understand


[EDIT]

If you have added new MS5611 Baro to Old Rabbit then No Ch8!

you believe that? I do not see the connection between the two tinks, one is I2C and the other is a standard port, maybe with interrupt.

There's no believing, its a fact

As Ican has already said its the Bootloader!

[EDIT]
LoveFlight made it very clear in June when I asked them for a couple of the new Baro Boards to upgrade a few Old Rabbits.

this one, mind if i won't ch8 and i have 5611 baro I need to resend to china for boot upgrade ?

I have original bosch and old board, need boot change to for ch8 ?

nebstress maybe you're right, and I will have to buy a new one from ali.

True story: the guys at FrSky were looking at the multicopter market and started asking questions about multirotor electronics, as they wanted a share of the market. Then one levelheaded guy asked them " do you guys have a couple of mathematicians and a physics engineer to back your programmers and electronic design teams, because any FC is as good as the backing team work is ?" And they said "no" and kept out of the picture.

I don't see why is there a fuss about CH8. Even CH7 is mostly redundant. The Rabbit as a FC is mostly dead. Granted, there's a price advantage over a Naza, and it's probably more forgiving of newbies then say MultiWii or Arducopter, but once you get over a certain multicopter knowledge threshold, it's simply nonexistant.

It lacks in so many advanced features, like telemetry, remote access and pre-programmed navigation. Functions depending on mag and gps are a coin's toss to get right or wrong. Yet users - like me - are hanging on promises of a bright future, when there are no real advances since... june !?

It really is no more then a friendlier KK controller, and you get no onboard LCD to adjust stuff
Let's face it. The Rabbit is dead. You get way better FCs for less and with better support. You can have CH8 working on both Arduflyer 2.5 and Crius AIOP, and if you get into trouble, stuff is open-source so you can troubleshoot it.

With most things I consider purchasing now have more chance of attracting my attention if they are 'open source'...

This probably true if you have time to messing arround. I found I do not have sufficient time to play with all my toys and giving sufficient attention to my family.

Rabbit is a simple solution for me. Although its function become fall behind other boards.
