1 # Yaapu Frsky Telemetry script
3 A lua based telemetry script for the Taranis X9D+ and X7 radio using the frsky passthrough protocol.
5 Requires OpenTX 2.2 and a recent release of arducoper, arduplane or rover.
7 Tested on a pixracer with copter 3.5.3 and on a pixhawk clone with copter 3.5.4

15 - flight mode (modes are displayed based on the frame type:copter,plane or rover)
16 - artificial horizon with roll,pitch and yaw with numeric compass heading
17 - battery voltage from 3 sources (in order of priority)
18 - - frsky FLVSS voltage sensor if available (vs is displayed next to voltage)
19 - - frsky analog port if available (a2 is displayed next to voltage)
20 - - flight controller via telemetry (fc is displayed next to voltage)
21 - battery lowest cell if available or cell average if not
23 - battery capacity and battery capacity used in mAh and %
24 - vertical speed on left side of HUD
25 - altitude on right side of HUD
27 - gps fix status and hdop
32 - home heading as rotating triangle
33 - mavlink messages with history accessible with +/- buttons short press
34 - english sound files for selected events: battery levels, failsafe, flightmodes and landing
38 The script is quite big and compilation on your radio may fail.
39 The safest way is to compile it on Companion and then copy the .luac compiled version to the SD card in the /SCRIPTS/TELEMETRY folder.
41 To enable sound files playback copy them to /SOUNDS/yaapu0/en folder.
43 ## Hardware requirements
45 Please refer to the arducopter wiki for information on how to configure your flight controller for passthrough protocol
46 - http://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-frsky-passthrough.html
48 For information on how to connect the FrSky equipment together, please refer to
49 - http://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-frsky-telemetry.html#common-frsky-equipment
50 - http://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-frsky-telemetry.html#frsky-cables
54 The script can be run in TEST mode. By using TEST mode you can control the telemetry values by moving the radio sticks.
56 PLEASE DO NOT FLY IN THIS MODE
58 To enable TEST mode you need to uncomment some code and recompile the script.
60 the first change is in function telemetryEnabled which should be as below
63 local function telemetryEnabled()
64 if getValue("RxBt") == 0 then
68 --return noTelemetryData == 0
72 the second part that needs to be changed is in the run() function where the line symMode() must be uncommented
75 local function run(event)
85 Now you can test how the script behaves by using your radio channels 1,2,3,4,10 and 12.
