Module from Flysky FS-T6B??

Hi all,

I have just bought a Devo 10 and installed deviation on it yesterday. I have a fly sky fs-ct6b with a broken gimbal I was hoping to use the module from but it has a 5v input not a 3v.

Is it possible to still use the module? Is there a 5v rail somewhere I can use? I'm hoping to use this module for better range than the V911 module.

Thanks,

Dale

Hi Vlad_vy,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Though if you could pick up 5v somewhere could just use the ppm from the TX anyway. Depends if you are going to use ppm for anything else. Otherwise make up your own external module that will use the ppm and 5v if you find it. Going external you could use the ppm out, and power the module with a separate battery but only run a common negative with the ppm, becareful not to include the positive. Then use ppm out in the programming, plug your module in and you should be good to go. I wouldn't be too ambitious with the type of planes you fly at first, stick to the smaller BNF stuff and maybe small foamies till you can do some tests on range and reliability depending which route you take. Very very similar to using a HT8 module from HiSky.

Hi Steve,

Thinking on it I really have no need for extra range for the flysky protocol as I only have a couple of V911s and a V9x9 quad. For longer range stuff I can use my existing DSM recievers. Would be an interesting excersice though.

Blew my Devo 10 up the other night doing the V911 module mod, plugged the battery into the wrong socket on the mainboard Ah well I was really impressed with the radio and the custom firmware so I have ordered a new one. At least I will have spare parts.

Thanks,
