G+_Michael Heinz Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Anyone have any good Taranis tricks and tips? I've tweaked my throttle curve and I've created a flight timer and configured a reset button to bounce the timer. Any other fun idea to try?

G+_Steve Prior Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I'm new to Taranis too. I configured a switch for motor enable and configured it to announce when the motor is enabled/disabled. I also verbally announce a change in a switch that selects flight mode. Also configured telemetry for battery pack and lowest cell voltage warning.?

G+_Steve Prior Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I've been considering switching to sbus between the receiver and Flip to free up outputs which could be used with a receiver controlled switch to control LEDs. Then with the telemetry I could have the transmitter flash the LEDs fit battery low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Michael Heinz Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 The reset is for the timer, I use the timer to keep from over-draining the batteries and I use the momentary contact switch to reset the flight timer so I don't have to power-cycle the radio whenever I change batteries. (I've edited my original post to be more clear.) For the telemetry - are you using an external sensor for the battery telemetry? I didn't see any voltage droop on the receivers own input voltage during normal operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Steve Prior Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Yes, I got the FrSky voltage sensor. The one you're thinking of measures the regulated voltage off the ESCs so it's not gonna drop. The external sensor measures each cell voltage so you can warm if an individual cell gets low before the pack is damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
