I am struggling to get a PPM signal that I can use to send to the ArduIMU to implement Jose Julio's quadcopter design.I have a Turnigy 9X TX with the 8ch receiver.  From the receiver comes PWM and I know I have connection with the TX because I can see it on a scope and can also control servos.  I connected all 8 channels from the receiver to the PPM encoder I bought from the DIY Store but am not seeing the channels coded as PPM.  In fact, using a scope, the only channel I can see making any…See More

I have a Turnigy 9X transmitter.  My understanding is that this outputs PPM encoded channels.  That is, there are eight separate channels, as separate signals,  that are each PPM encoded.Is there an easy way to combine the separate signals into a single, PPM encoded signal that has all eight channels?  I am trying to avoid writing code that will do that myself and use something already developed/available.I understand that the DIY Stores PPM encoder outputs a single single PPM encoded signal…See More

As always, I apologize in advance for the newbie nature of my question.I have a Turnigy/iMax 9X transmitter and receiver.  I am attempting to build a quadcoputer following Jose Julio's design and using his code.  As implemented, he uses a single pin on the Arduimu as a PPM input, then parses the PPM signal to get individual channels. Thus, the single PPM signal must have multiple channels within it.  Indeed, it would seem that you would need at least three channels.  Jose designed his system…See More

I am trying to complete my first build of an ArduIMU v2 (flat) quadcopter (using Jose Julio's version as a guide).I am close and just need to connect the receiver.I bought a Turnigy 9TX transmitter that comes with an 8 ch receiver.  While it was relatively cheap, quality it is not.  It looks almost remanufactured and there was a lose screw rattling around inside.  One thing it does not come with is a manual or wiring diagram of any kind to help the newbies of the world.So, a few questions:1)…See More
