Here's a diff for the changes. It should apply with hg import, but not sure since I've got other local changes. I think I need to rebase these to the latest nightly so I can make a pull request (or at least make it more easily). Not sure how to do that and now it's time to go fly :) Will look into it tonight and push the changes to my repo.

Nice work!

Just registered to thank you for your work.
Good job guys!
Another protocol hacked for our beloved Devo.
As I am new at DeviationTX World, I don't know what is the next step. Maybe a pull request for a new nightly?
How many time we will need to wait for a new nightly with this protocol for the Devo 7E?
Thank you guys!

With the nano syma X12



AIL and ELE must be inverted vs the X11 but it's working well

I applied the patch via

patch -p1 < syma11.diff

I managed to recompile for the devo10 but for the devo7E I have

+ Building 'objs/devo7e/symax_nrf24l01.bin'
./target/devo7e/protocol.ld:18 cannot move location counter backwards (from 2000
48cc to 200048bc)
make: *** [objs/devo7e/symax_nrf24l01.bin] Error 1

:(

Just wanted to say you guys are amazing! I can not thank you enough. I wanted to get an x11 for my daughter and now that it's deviated she can enjoy it on our 7e (once it end up in a nightly that is, as I have no idea on compiling my own yet). Keep up the great work!! So glad I purchased this 7e.

Ah, forgot (again) that static initializers can't be used with the 7e. Please try the attached version for the 10 to verify I made the fixses correctly.

I optimistically pushed the changes to my repo. If everything works you can pull the changeset from there to build for any tx. You should be able to pull the branch "pb_repo" and then merge it locally if you've got any local changes from the nightly. It has the SymaX changes based off the current nightly revision.

Once the latest changes are tested I'll make a pull request. It won't appear in the nightly until merged, which as far as I know can only be done by PB. We can post a 7e build on a download site somewhere (but building your own is fun!)

Ok it's working for me :)

Which files should be intialzed these statics ? (coz I already patched my local repo with your work).
What is the url of your repo ?

Hi Hexfet.
Actually, I don't have the skills to compile a complete build for my Devo 7E from the Repo.
Could you compile a Devo 7E DFU based on latest nightly with your changes for Syma Protocol? :oops:
The Syma community is growing a lot, and we are anxious to use our Devo B)

It's not quite ready for a pull request yet. Noticed in SBDK's last video that he had to reverse a couple channels. Need to get the default right for at least one of the supported models :)

Attached is a build for the 7e. Would appreciate some testing as I did some reorganizing. Specifically please post your syma model and which channels had to be reversed.

Thanks!

Just tested with Syma X11 :) .
Channel assignation:
Channel 1. AIL. REVERSED.
Channel 2. ELE. NORMAL.
Channel 3. THR. NORMAL.
Channel 4. RUD. REVERSED.
Channel 5. Flip mode.
Channel 6. Dual rates.

My question is what channel uses the Syma X5C-1 and the new X11C (almost 100% confident same protocol) to activate the camera?
Actually I don't have a X5C-1 to test but I have on the way a X11C that probably will receive in about 2 weeks.

Good to hear. What channels did you need to reverse to fly the X5C-1? Can you fly the X12 with the X5C-1 tx, and vice-versa?

We don't have any information about how to control the camera. I watched an X5C-1 review and it looks like the camera controls are on the left vertical trim button? Can you make an SPI trace from your tx with a logic analyzer? It's possible SeByDocKy's transmitter will send the signals even though it's not from a camera model so he could make a capture.

Can you tell on the copter when a picture is taken or video recording is on/off? If so we could try some detective work. I can make a version that toggles a few likely bits in the protocol and you can test if they work. There'd be six new channels to check to see if any of them control the camera so a bit tedious...

According some reviewers, the transmitter for the X5C-1 can fly the X11 and X12 without any modification, so it's a bit confusing the behaviour into the channel reversing that SebyDocky suffers.
I have exactly the same channel configuration at the X12 Seby's video. AIL and RUD reversed, the other channels normal. We need to wait Seby double check his configuration.
The camera at the X5 is activated by the Throttle Trimmers. Trim Up take a photo, Trim Down start video capture (maybe is inverse, I don't remember good).
I can help testing the camera options at the X5C-1 and X11C in about 2 weeks, when I return work from Christmas holidays, and receive my X11C.
I think it's time to order a cheap Logic Analyzer :P

Nice video :) Yes, something doesn't add up with the channel reversing. We'll get it straightened out. The camera controls we can probably find by trying a few possibilities, but it'll be faster with an spi trace. Glad it's working for you.
