Connect RC controller with SDK 1.0.0/PX4 1.14
-
We are trying to get a drone working with SDK 1.0.0 but we are unable to get a RC controller properly connected. It worked with SDK 0.9.5.
We have a RadioLink RC controller connected to the VOXL2 IO board similar to the Graupner setup: https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-io-user-guide/#using-sbus-graupner-gr-16 but we don't get RC signals through in QGroundControl. This topic seems to suggest that the VOXL2 IO board is not yet supported for SDK 1.0.0 but that is for an ESC: https://forum.modalai.com/topic/2429/voxl2-io-m0065-support-on-px4-1-14-in-sdk-1-0-0. Should it be possible to connect our RC with VOXL2 IO?

@Tjark No, the IO board will not be supported until a later release.

@Eric-Katzfey thanks for the update, although it is a pity since it used to work. Do you have an idea when support will be added again?

@Tjark I would estimate 2 months although we may do an intermediate release that only supports RC options (Not PWM) on the IO board in about a month.
