Falcon and arduino?
-
This is looking really promising, cant wait to try it out!

Well, it is not about finding ways to have a DED. There are some ways for that. It is about using OLED displays the easiest (and cheapest) way possible with BMS , for gauges, displays, etc
You can have an Arduino compatible PCB for USD$7 and an 0.96" OLED for less than 5 bucks… ¡That is a very cheap 1" gauge! -

It may be cheaper in terms of money but I am not sure that the time equivalent is going to be there.

Yep, I use three of those TFT for MFDs and ATD but tiny ones have not video display PCBs so only through other electronics it can be made.
Anyway, Uri_ba has updated his blog and now everything is there -
More progress

Yeah!!! Thx!!!

Hello, everybody.
I use the Oled solution from Arend (Viper Core)
with the software DEDUINO Version 0. 0. 1. 1 Falcon DED extractor for Arduino by Uri Ben Avraham.
Unfortunately, the ads sometimes spin in flight, is the problem known, or is newer software available?
Thanks and greetings

any follow up on this?
mainly: software-interface wise, is there any one-fits-all solution how to use ARDUINOS to drive UHF Backup, CMDS, DED, FF, PFL, and all analog gauges via either mini-screens (LCD,LED), servos or aircores?
thanks

Hello HiLok,
I would recommend F4toSerial. I’m not sure if it works for 4.34 but I hope so, as I want to drive all gauges.
I wrote my own code for the DED and PFD and all LEDs (driven by 2 Adruino Mega) for my pit.
If you have further questions, just let me know.
Have a great evening and greetz from Holzkirchen (very close to Munich ;))

Greetz, Tweetyopps sorry i posted the link didn’t realize you already mentioned it wasn’t stealing your kudos i should read all post carefully rather than speed reading
