I have been trying to get the Telemetry working on APD 80F3 ESCs for weeks now. I have talked to the APD team and they claim it works.
I have Dshot connected to Servo9-12. I have ground from each ESC going to each of the servo rail, as well as, tied the ESCs Ground and telem together and have all 4 going to the Serial 2 port.
I have Serial 2 set to ESC telemetry with the baudrate set to 115, as specified.
Has anyone out there gotten the telemetry to work on these? I would like to know if I am wasting my time but would like this to work to help troubleshoot if anything happens.
I’m about to test that too, I’ll update here.
I ran out of solder, waiting for delivery due to lockdown, so it could take me a couple more days.
Until then can you post you param file please?
Have you got these params? This is working for me without a motor connected.
I dont have a Cube Orange available at the moment (and in fact I dont own one ) so this is with an old Pixhawk, but the settings are identical.
Telem wires all joined together and connected to Telem2 RX pin
MOT_PWM_TYPE,5
SERIAL2_PROTOCOL,16
SERIAL2_BAUD,115200 (this gets set automatically when you choose protocol 16)
SERVO_BLH_AUTO,1
SERVO9_FUNCTION,33 (and SERVO10 34 and so on)
Awesome! I haven’t been able to get those to show up like you did, but the fact that you did, gives me hope. I may have made a mistake somewhere… Thanks for the help. I will update this thread if I can get it working with Cube Orange.
Also, did you have to bring in a ground from each esc to the telem port or just the signal to the RX?APD_Telem.zip (5.3 KB)
Also, here is my param file. Could you see if it works for you?
