hi. rich the op was my old neighbor and friend who got me set up to do this internet stuff. i have most of his old equipment and with reconstituted source code from post #51 should be able to do a 3 channel version if you are still interested. tiny13 is my favorite chip and is 100% compatible with the others in this thread so that helps. let me know.

How much would it cost to do a tiny13? If you don't mind I would be interested in a 6-8Ch version, would it mater if it was only fed 4Ch in?

6>8 channel you would need ATtiny2313. And you would need to know if signal is inverted. Futaba is but spektrums aren't. Still if you have avr programmer take a moment to change.
I live in UK, Bristol if that helps?

post #51 is already 6ch and i think others posted hex for 8ch. i have a bunch of mege8 which are either 6 or 8 im not sure. he just left me with tubes of chips. i can sell some for 5-6 bucks if anybodys interested.

i dont hink too many channels causes trouble but id have to check on that. you can fix the inverted problem in the code easy or with a transistor (no resistor caps needed).

i was thinking of coding a version that has auto polarity and auto channel sensing. shouldnt be to hard. will be more than a couple dozen bytes (that guy was amazing) but theres no space problem in these chips.

I should be able to modify my source code to do what you need, but I don't have an ATtiny13 to test it on. I will try on an Arduino, should be similar enough.

when you get up to around 8ch you start to run out of time 2.25x8=20ms. The frame rate is not set in stone and you can push it out till it's also double. The spektrum buddy box signal uses a different approach they have the pulse go from .5 to 1.5ms.

on a different note I was thinking about how someone reprogrammed an orange rx to be a tx and the thought came to me to do away with all this extra hardware and just reprogram the rx to send ppm out one channel.

DavidT line of spektrum rx's can out put stream PPM and very very small.

kile
Is doing a nice TX module. Now if he was to do more work (i say that like it easy ) and make RX based on NRF24L01 +. Pair of NRF24L01 + very cheap HERE

Ok large amount of work

almost all modern low cost rx like flysky and frsky put out ppm. it is usually present on the bind pin. unfortunately old tech spektrum and orange havent caught up.

davidt modified orange have it but are ridiculous expensive. i can buy several ppm flysky rx for the cost of one of those.

Hi,
I'm very interresting about making this PWM2PPM convertor...

But...Can you give me the way to build the hex file?
I try to make this with winavr, I have to use AVR Studio?

no need to build the hex file. it is already in post #1.

Sorry for my english,
I want to build an Hex file from the source given.

Like for atmega8.

Hi
Which code do you have? Link to it would help.
Winavr can be used within Avr studio.

technically, if were talking about the programs in this thread, it would be avrasm not winavr since assembler not c is used.

Hi,

I implemented kile's code to Psoc. I am planning to use it with HK TR6A v2. May be it can be usefull for you too.

Heh, your receiver does have a ppm sum signal! Just check your BAT pin (the same as bind)
