What is CRSF and SBUS? What are the differences? CRSF (crossfire protocol) is a low-latency, bidirectional communication protocol used in drone systems. SBUS (Serial Bus) is a communication protocol that allows multiple control signals to be transmitted over a single wire between a transmitter and receiver.What is Multi-Bind on the TBS Tracer?
RCMAP_X There are 6 parameters - record the name and the current setting.
SERVO#_FUNCTIONThere are 7 active parameters - record the name and current setting.Add a table above that links your DATX control input with the Servo Outputs above. For example, list all servo outputs that the right stick control.
What does the RCMAP_X parameter control?What does the SERVO#_FUNCTION controlList all possible power sources for the following systems:Servo: Board Power Motor: Battery PowerCube/FCU: Battery Power/voltage regulator
Lab 11 - Motors and Controls
This week we worked on setting up our Cubepilot and controller to connect together and have a better connection. The main portion of this lab is to add some more components and test if we can control a motor before installing them into our Believer. The ESC is connected to a battery and then connects to the cubepilot board powering the bus on the board. The servos are connected to the bus and powered through the bus.
DATX Setup
Questions:
The Multi-Bind allows you to bind to multiple radios at once without rebinding ever again.
In this portion we made sure the controller is setup correctly to connect with our Cubepilot.
Avionics Setup
Here we made sure all of our avionics is working properly.

Motor and Control Setup
Questions:
It controls what channel each control input communicates over.
It controls what function each servo does.
In this section we tested our servos by connecting our avionics to a test setup and made sure our controller was connected properly and doing what we want it to do.
