Jumper T8SG builds

Cool!

But I assume that this TX opens Deviation for mainstream (no soldering etc. needed), wouldn't it be great to support it natively? What would happen if one flashes the U7e build? Only channels reversed?

Should be great to offer a default config file with all the four 3-way pre-configured . Why not one dedicaced for D/R with three differents rate values....

What you want is a template, not a model. A template will adopt to the protocol, where a model setup will depend on the protocol for which channels the D/R switch effects. Or are you thinking of changing the default model so that channel virt1 is a 3-way switch based on one of them?

What I was thinking is more a default config file where the 3-way switches are well configured for Betaflight for example .... So we just need to change the default protocol .... to our specific machine

I put together this template for a 6-channel multirotors based on CF/BF. I've tested with my Devo 12e, and 6s, but I don't have a T8SG to test. install in the templates folder then in Model setup scroll to choose the 6Ch Multi template. Let me know if this works for you.

The template assigns channels 1-4 to simple curves, channel 5 to arm (GEAR1) and channel 6 for modes (MIX). It also adds virtual channels for sticky throttle hold (virt1), Throttle % display (virt3) and Timer reset (virt 5). It automatically maps to the correct protocol and device layout. TEST WITH PROPS REMOVED. I haven't fully documented it yet...

Another small improvement can be maybe done. The Jumper is compatible with "60" config files .... so maybe by inserting 30 new config files from model31.ini to model60.ini .... should be a little nice add.

Thanks for doing this.
Being my first Deviation transmitter, this update and your templates have made getting elevons to work much easier.

Changes:
* Fix switch mapping for foreign model files.

Now you can use model files from other devo transmitters with correct initial switch mapping with exception that all "DR" switches mapped to "SWD".

Switch mapping scheme:
("DR0", SWD0)
("DR1", SWD1)
("RUD DR0", SWD0)
("RUD DR1", SWD1)
("ELE DR0", SWD0)
("ELE DR1", SWD1)
("AIL DR0", SWD0)
("AIL DR1", SWD1)
("FMODE0", SWA0)
("FMODE1", SWA1)
("FMODE2", SWA2)
("MIX0", SWC0)
("MIX1", SWC1)
("MIX2", SWC2)
("GEAR0", SWB0)
("GEAR1", SWB1)

SeBy - have you figured out how to get the RSSI feed on Channel 16 of an XM+ receiver to appear in Betaflight using the T8SG? Anyone else?

Did you turn on the "lastchRSSI" option ? If the RSSI is still not here.... it means you will need to flash the good XM+ Firmware .... via a Taranis radio for example.

SeBy - I did set "LASTCHAN" on the Jumper - and so I need to find a Taranis I can borrow to flash the correct firmware. By the way, I seriously enjoy your reviews!
