Skywalker 1680 Long Range build log

[mark1975]

looking great there marcin nice setup.

[Mancini]

So it starts like this.
DL RX PPM+RSSi ===to DOSD "not on picture"
camera video input ===to DOSD "not on picture"
VTX video out ===from DOSD "not on picture"
Audio out===from DOSD NOT USED ,going through teleflyOSD to VTX "not on picture"

Picture connections:.
GPS ===directly on picture + teleflyOSD -soldered to GPS cables.
current sensor ===as in DOSD manual
DOSD ===powered by 5V BEC "two lipo setup-separate for video gear"
I2C DOSD SDA SCL===goes to SDA SCL +/- Xlator ===then translated to RX/ground goes to FY30A as ground/UART
+ on FY30A separate red wire === power for FY30A === BEC 5V

NOW !
PWM's 1/2/3/4 signals form DOSD goes to FY30A RUD/ELE/AIL/+/- inputs "no throttle used by FY30A"
then FY30A outputs for servos RUD/ELE/AIL "no throttle" -prefere to setup DOSD to use throttle or leave it with "failsafe settings"
Is FY30A switch signal wire goes straight to DL RX ??
Can I use 5V on PWM's in DOSD to power FY30A ??
or is actually powered through AILERON wires from PWM 1 AIL with signal/+/- wire ??

Right today I manage to do couple mods for Skywalker build:.

poor stabilizer got nice welder wire  and same covering method.
