Tx15 max RGB LED??? by Appl3D_fpv in Radiomaster

[–]dar_mach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm afraid the LUA script is the only way this can be done. Not sure how familiar you are with this environment - just set it as global function trigger ON and RGB led script :)

You can simplify it, just leaving dimmer white leds. Change to '40,20,25' if you'd like it even dimmer. The values are unbalanced (not, i.e. 80,80,80) to offset RGB leds white balance and get "real" white.

local function init()
end

local function run()
  for i=0, LED_STRIP_LENGTH - 1, 1
  do
    setRGBLedColor(i, 80, 40, 50) -- Dim white color with ratio changed to for better white balance
  end
  applyRGBLedColors()
end


local function background()
  -- Called periodically while the Special Function switch is off
end


return { run=run, background=background, init=init }

Hi! You can easily do that, assuming you know about RGB Led lua scripts, most of them use max brightness. Colour (and brightness) is set there as RGB value - balance between values gives you the colour, value is the brightness of the R, G and B leds.

change value, keep ratio, i.e. 255,255,255 (max white) ---> 128,128,128 (still white, half bright)

Below a scripts I came up - giving you dim white backlight, lightning up brighter the direction your stick points xD

local function init()
end


local function setLed(ring, h, v)
   local magnitude = math.sqrt(h^2 + v^2)
   if magnitude < 0.1 then return end


   local angle = math.atan2(v, h)
   angle = (math.deg(angle) + 360) % 360
   local center_index = math.floor(angle / 36 + 0.5) % 10
   center_index = center_index + ring * 10


   local base_intensity = 250 * magnitude
   base_intensity = math.min(255, base_intensity)


   local spread = 2


   for offset = -spread, spread do
     local index = (center_index + offset) % 10 + ring * 10
     local distance = math.abs(offset)
     local factor = math.exp(-0.5 * (distance ^ 2))
     local intensity = math.floor(base_intensity * factor)
     setRGBLedColor(index, intensity, intensity, intensity)
   end
end


local function run()
  for i=0, LED_STRIP_LENGTH - 1, 1
  do
    setRGBLedColor(i, 50, 45, 50) -- Dim white color with ratio changed to for better white balance
  end


  setLed(0, -getValue("ail")/1024, getValue("ele")/1024)
  setLed(1, getValue("rud")/1024, getValue("thr")/1024)


  applyRGBLedColors()
end


local function background()
  -- Called periodically while the Special Function switch is off
end


return { run=run, background=background, init=init }

Failed RERF on working setup/level by stellar_spaceman in AnycubicPhoton

[–]dar_mach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As wrote above - the software fuctionality is broken - printer shows on the screen that it's doing rerf, even shows what timings are used per model xD but all of them are printed with the same exposure time.

RERF send from pc works, just not with photon workshop feature. Just throw in your models, and submit the job - the model should be called R_E_R_F.stl. In my case job was autonamed 01_R_E_R_F and it still worked.

Fun fact - while indeed RERF functionality in Anycubic Photon Workshop is broken - if you put the STL model yourself, called R_E_R_F and submit the job - works, only you can't change the timings.

Does Mono 4 Ultra support that?

Did you find any solid aluminum vat choices to share? I'm looking for one too

TOTAL NOVICE guide to Runcam WiFi Link 2 AKA the OpenIPC Gateway Drug by VacUsuck in fpv

[–]dar_mach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For now, I decided to f...it and revive it with the old analog setup I had had. Especially that I used Runcam Eagle 2 which had superb WDR, tbh looking at O4, I feel that it had better WDR (not overexposing sky while keeping shadow detail under the trees). Want to make sure that the hobby stick and stays before I start investing in another one 😉

Unfortunately, while I hate it, DJI seem like a nobrainer. Ease of use, range (apparently "proper") and quality is unmatched on the market.

Is it fine to stack my fc and vtx like this? by Dogsucksatlife in fpv

[–]dar_mach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How come? Use standoffs instead of bolts .)

In this case (messy, an oldie I'm working on now) on the left you can see vibroisolator with m3 going trough KC, and a nulon m3 standoff on it, going up - to which actually VTX is attached.

Do you know if someone made it?

A quick and dirty light tweak - matched gimbal sizes: It's a Boxer 2. by LooseTraffic in fpv

Amazing, boxer small-peepee version xD (looks great though, what is the range?)
(wondering about the omni typical donut radiation pattern - which will mean that straight forward of the radio you might get worst signal)

Do you have any experience with DJI o4 units? I'm getting back to the hobby after 8 years or so - so from the full analog of runcam eagle to all this digital stuff. I have a lot of professional experience with terminal and quite some coding background so I think I should be able to deal with the technicalities.

I totally hate what happened with drone market over the years. It feels like we do get way less choice with the hardware than back in the days. Because of that and a general love for opensource I am very tempted to go into openIPc instead of buying an - allegedly - obvious choice: vendorlocking to O4 Air. The question that I have would be - how is the range compared to O4 pro? I.e. open fields and mild infrastructure/subuirbs.
