Hello Powerbox team, yesterday I made some checks on my bench to test a future setup of my system.
It will be comprised of a Frsky X8R receiver ( 2.4Ghz) and R9Slim ( 868Mhz).
I connected them to RX1 and RX2 of PB Champion SRS and powered them on, obviously set RX to S-bus.
Immediately I seen the two dots, in the main PB screen, showing the signals coming from RX, solid white, strange, in my other setup, Graupner Hott, same PB model, there is always only one dot lit,
if I disconnect the active receiver, it switches to the backup one, right.
Continuing my tests, and going far from the TX, I noticed that the two dots are not solid, they flichers at very high rate, conitnuing to go far from tx, the connected servos starts to move
in a casual manner, this is not good, if I put this on my 2.70m model sure it will go to hit the ground.
Disconnecting one receiver, no difference if is the 2.4 or 868, all works fine even if I am at the limit of the receiver low senistivity threshold, obviousli the antenna fades, and lost frames, increases very quickly till 2048 then stops to count. My thought is that there is some kind of incompatibility between PB and FrSky, S-Bus is a standard but probably there are some differences between PB and FrSky. I heard something similar with Hitec Aurora 9 and Maxima SL rx ( in the Flyingiants forum ). Please have you some suggestions? When Powerbox will support Frsky S-port telemetry protocol? Thanks for your attention.
Best regards
Alessandro
