Currently does not account for centered throttle! ( no altitude hold ) It uses normal throttle, low = motors off. That means it should be used with Devo / multimodule or another tx.

Programming connector is a Microjst 1.25 pitch connector. Don't wire positive to st-link as you may overcharge the battery if connected or damage the st-link.

By default "gestures" are used to change modes, move the stick left-left-down for acro mode , and right-right-down for level mode.

Pid gestures allow the pilot to change the acro mode pids by a percentage, and such tune the quadcopter without a computer. The new pids can be saved so that they will be restored after the quad is power cycled.The new pids will remain active if saved, until the pid values in file pid.c are changed. If the values are not changed, flashing the quad will not erase the pids unless the erase command is manually issued when programming.

The gesture for accel calibration is down - down - down. If pids have been changed using the respective gestures since the last powerup or save, the pids will be saved instead.

DeviationTx and multimodule+taranis can support telemetry, this requires no changes from the defaults on the quad. For devo, when selecting the Bayang protocol, hit Enter to see options, and enable telemetry there. Telemetry currently contains received number of data and telemetry packets, and 2 voltages, battery raw voltage and compensated voltage ( against voltage drop )

For multimodule, you need to add telemetry ( as an option ) to the bayang protocol in the protocol table ( configuration file ). Note the telemetry protocol won't work with stock quads.

The Android app "SilverVISE" by SilverAG (not me) is able to receive telemetry from the quad using BLE packets. To use, the app protocol should be set in the quadcopter. The app will also show the pids.

The gcc version compiles close to 16k, and may need turning off features in order to make it fit. Read install.md for additional information.

The boldclash settings need changes to work with gcc well, turn off pid save as it uses the last K of flash, likely needed for program space. Turn off the software lpf filter, the loop time is longer, at 1400, which affects the frequency of that filter. You could set loop time to 1500 but it may not be needed.

• pid gestures - pids can be changed by gestures at the field
• pid save - new pids are saved to flash by the d-d-d gesture

• level pid is tuned more aggressive
• added filter between level pid and acro pid
• fixed issue where "Overclock" option broke level mode (i2c) - overclock can be used on the bwhoop now
• removed level mode I term - this was not usually used
• minor cleanup and efficiency
• GCC autovdrop now functional
• LVC throttle lowering disabled by default just in case it malfunctions

• autovdrop improved, and better compensation
• new measured motor curve at 24K pwm
• added a new way of lowering throttle below a certain voltage
• lvc now flashes below an "uncompensated" voltage, too, just in case
