Radiomaster TX16S redundant link

Some time ago someone mentioned on a blog that he believes an OpenTX radio combined with a weatronic module would be the best RC radio. I really like OpenTX - because its features - and I created a redundant RC transmitter module which I believe can be even better than weatronic modules. Here we go.…

Redundant RC transmitter module & 8 channel receiver

July 5, 2020Posted inRC modeling
Mostly high end RC transmitters/receivers are using the good old CC2500 chipset. When you hear SX1280 probably the first word pops in your mind is LoRa. However SX1280 chip also supports FLRC mode which is very similar to MSK used on CC2500, but according to the documentation SX1280 does it with 16 dBm higher receiver…

RC current sensor

Most of the RC current sensor designs are using a hall effect-based current sensor, like the ACS758. In this project I would like to try something different (more difficult?) and use a conventional high-side current sensor to achieve the following goals: Maximum 60A continuous current sensing capability, Maximum 5S (18.5V) LiPo battery input, Send telemetry…
