Cool! No if you have it running I certainly won't go reinventing the wheel just for the sake of it - awaiting details with my AVR programmer ready

Sorry, just remembered that it is in the car (in my EasyStar), but...

GPS 6g
CR1632 1,7g
Hub and Vario Sensor maybe 4-6g

so i would say it is is 12-14g

And here's mine in the meantime. 8gr without wires.

So you guys would like a GPS with a built in hub? Or a receiver with a built in hub?

A GPS with a hub that is replaced by a small single chip... replacing the big thing I posted above by something like this and a couple of small wires

Found this thread today -- just finished reading every single post. Head swimming in information - midnight and time to sleep...but....

Has anyone considered a way to increase the volume of the alarms on the DHT-U? Ya, I'd like them customized and all of that -- but to start with --- louder would be nice.

A Rx with an included hub would include the whole 9 yards for all the sensors so I see little point in that. Just use a hub. A stand alone sensor which could be plugged into the new 4 channel directly would be a big boon to the smaller air frames where only one or two sensors are needed. It would save a large amount of weight and space. I don't see why FrSky couldn't keep the hub and offer a few standalone sensors such as vario or GPS for glider guys for example.

That is more of less what I was thinking.. I'd like a real Vario that can plug straight into the receiver. Great for DLG and other small gliders. If it included a GPS, I guess that would be OK..

What are you guys doing with the GPS data?

Flvs-01


Has anyone had an issue with this?
Mine reads .07V high on cell No. 6, the first 5 cells are spot on (+ or - .02V)
compared to a Fluke DVM.

I got this rather confusing reply from Eva:-

"The voltage detection precision of FLVS-01 is 0.03V and I presume your problem was caused by the total values of voltage detection precision from cells 1-5"

Wonder what that means?.

I think she understood you measured a .07V difference on the whole pack, which would be explained by accumulating the errors of all cells, instead of just on cell 6 itself.

That makes sense!
Thanks!

I would prefer separate sensors, a stand alone vario and a stand alone GPS. The GPS is expensive and to tack that onto anything else would eliminate many prospective buyers.

Hi,

I'm new to FrSky so I hope you can help me out
I want to buy a Th9x V2 and add some telemtry. (I only want to know the voltage of the battery )

I found a tutorial but it was only for the TX side not showing what is needed for RX equipment.
So this was suggested on the TX side:
https://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...7205&aff=46415
Can I use only this RX:
https://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...elemetry_.html
and this voltage sensor:
https://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...y_System_.html
or this:
https://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...r_FLVS_01.html

1) do I have to buy a sensor hub? (as only voltage is of interest)
2) can I use a cheaper 8ch RX?
3) how can I use the first cheaper voltage sensor to be used for a 4s battery?

Thanks in advance

1) no hub needed
2) you can use cheaper V8* receivers, but no telemetry
3) it is good up to 18.6V, so event 5S
