Hi Guys,

Im looking at following along with this, but had two questions.

How do i setup the model to use the trainerport/elrs?
How do i bind the elrs with RX without having LUA support?

You want a nano bay, right? I've just uploaded this one : www.thingiverse.com/thing:6501383
You could stick it with double sided tape. I tried to keep the original look, as much as I can

Hi all
The module is successfully connected with a receiver (HGLRC 2.4 RX) and all channels move as they should in receiver tab of betaflight configurator.
It only needs two pins from "PC Game" port. The lower one ("Signal B" from photo) and ground. The power comes from the same pad the internal cyrf6936 uses.
I had the module re-flashed with the "AUTO_WIFI_ON_INTERVAL" box unselected in ELRS configurator. So it won't enter WIFI AP mode when using the internal cyrf6936.

It's an awesome upgrade for the Devo 7E. Now I need an external module slot adapter ( www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004743012876.html ), to mount the module at the back of Devo 7E, and have some flight time.

I was suspecting that this could be the case. Anyway it's not a big deal as long as the module has a screen, and you can configure settings there.
Now I am going to bind it with a receiver and see how it operates
Thanks

I bought a Jumper AION nano 2.4GHz TX module. I connected it to my Devo 7E, running v5.0.0-408f8c0 firmware. All seems well, except when a click enter on CRSF protocol tab, it only shows the "Bit Rate" option from 400K to 2.25M, and nothing else.
Using the modules 5 ways joystick, I can make changes in module settings. I can even make it work as Bluetooth gamepad with my phone.

The module is in 3.3.2 version. Is this normal for the Devo 7E? I haven't try to bind to a receiver yet.

It is normal for Devo7E. Because of small memory, there is no lua function in it. If you want these functions, you have to upgrade "Devo7E" to "Devo7E 256" by changing chip.

Because it has no lua function, you can't check ELRS connection status or change any module setting just in Devo7E. The ELRS connection status can be checked on Jumper AION TX module, if ELRS connection is correct, the "connected" string will shown on module screen(old ELRS version has no this function, maybe), or you can check 5 ways joystick led color.

I use this Jumper module for my DEVO 7E and DEVO 7E 256 are works great. The more information about you can check this thread page13 and page 14.

v5.0.0-408f8c0 firmware is the correct one. I'm running 3.3.0, but it doesn't matter. Check your connections!

Here is a photo of my connections. I also tried different combinations of "Signal A" and "Signal B" pins.
Signal A on it own gives "no handset" message on TX module screen, and after 60sec modules goes to WIFI connection status.
Signal B on is own keeps module connected. The same works with signal A and signal B pair together. So I keeping them together for now.
If i select some protocol other than CRSF module says "no handset".
I think it's not the connections. I will try to flash version 3.3.0
Thanks

I'm not sure how to set up telemetry.. but it is available, I think Elrs lua in deviation is better than edgetx.. so funny

Does anyone know if telemetry is available on upgraded devo7e? Since it should now have enough memory to support it. Thanks

i feel like i am so close to having this done but its time to quit this dead end. thx all

Thanks guys that's great. I am gonna start ordering the parts.

me again. As shown in the photos, the upgrade is now finished. The wires for the ELRS TX have been pulled from the trainer/game port. GND and 2xSignal. V+ (5V) from pin 6 of the Pin-Out where the original TX module sits.
I first wanted to replace the original module with the ELRS one... but after getting "missing module" error, i came to realise, that it was also possible to operate both modules in paralel. Found a place beneath the battery bay. (make sure to isolate/cover the screw heads in order to prevent shorts). Since there were now two modules, i needed two antennas. screwed two holes on the top of the back cover and installed two antena mounting screws. I guess it looks better now, since the old antenna was pretty huge. After cutting off the "knob" of the old antenna holder, it should even look better.
Hope the sequence of the last posts helps others, who are also thinking of upgrading their radios.

Hello, I did it almost the same way, but on a devo 7e. And those 5v are a little less, it runs a betafpv nano module fine. Only one issue.. when the radio vibrates for notifications, sometimes the module disconnects. Flying at 10mw. There was a power mod for devo 7e, might try it someday ) Other than that it's quite reliable, no issues or missing functionality at all! ..I did maybe 20 packs.

Hi,
only did a bench test so far, which worked fine. Weather is cold currently. Will take some time before fyling around with this setup.
But once you did the mod, you may share your expirience with us.

Hi
I am planning to do exactly the same upgrade, for my Devo 7E.
Have you bind your TX to a model with ELRS receiver? How it performs?

Hi all,

after some additional research the signal wire seems to be connected to the Trainer Port.
Is it sufficient to use the illustrated Signal wire at the very bottom, the GND and V+ to have it working?
In the post above, it says that one of the middle wires needs to be utilized as well... (both siglan plus one of the middle wires) but which one exaclty?
Any hint is much appretiated.

Thx + BR

Hi all,

wanted to give ashort update.
The update onto "devo10-v5.0.0-408f8c0" worked like a charm.
In the meantime i soldered together a DIY TX Module (based on ESP32 with E28 TX Chip) as shown in on of the photos. I flashed the current ELRS version on it Release 3.3.2. Is it required to downgrade it?
I wanted to replace the old module with the ELRS DIY TX module. Before burning up something and to be on the safe side... where exactly do i solder up the three wires Signal, GND and V+?

I found some schema illustrating the pin-outs as well as soldering points on the board... however those were referring for the 4in1 module. Is it correct, that i can pull GRD and V+ from pin-out. Pin 6 for V+ and GRD 3 or 8? Which pin od soldering point on the board do i use for the signal cable?

Appretiate your feedback.

Thank you + BR
Martin

It works now, so I can also confirm that Devo 7E works with ELRS modules.

Thank you very much Hexfet for your development which keeps our beloved Deviation TXs alive.

Hello
I also want to install an ELRS module to my Devo 7E. But I need to know if it works as an every day transmitter to control a quad. If it's a reliable RC link, without causing runaways, or sadden disarms, or other issues in Betaflight. And what range it gives you.
Thanks

I found in my research that there is also the option to install Betaflight on the Rodeo 110 flight controller. Perhaps that would be the better choice, as everything can be set and configured here. You can find information on Betaflight on the Rodeo FC here, for example:
