The Walkera Devo transmitters use a [[modulelist/cyrf6936|CYRF6936]] transceiver chip. In theory any receiver using this chip could be compatible with Deviation. It would, of course, require analyzing the protocol to make it work. There are 3 other common transceiver chips in the 2.4GHz RC domain: [[modulelist/cc2500|CC2500]], [[modulelist/a7105|A7105]], [[modulelist/nrf24l01|NRF74L01]]. Modules for each of these can be purchased for ~$15 each from China. Currently Deviation supports all of them, but only two additional RF modules can be installed into a Tx without the help of some additional DIY hardware called the [[modulelist/multimod|MultiModule]]. | The Walkera Devo transmitters use a [[modulelist/cyrf6936|CYRF6936]] transceiver chip.

- | Deviation with the additional RF modules already supports a lot of protocols, and the number is increasing day after day. You can look at the [[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Any72n5Y9u-kdGFDeXhBY0I0ek1raTdEN21VTlBzTkE&usp=sharing|Supported Models]] list to see, if your model is supported. | + | Deviation with the additional RF modules already supports a [[supported_protocols|lot of protocols]], and the number is increasing day after day.

In order to support a new protocol, we need to know what transceiver chipset is used in the particular model. If you are not sure, post detailed pictures of the TX and/or RX board. If the chipset is supported, we need captures of the data flow between the microcontroller and the transceiver chip. | In order to support a new protocol, we need to know what transceiver chipset is used in the particular model.
