Quad Copter set up.
I am using a 4 channel FrSky receiver in SBUS mode out the Channel 4 port to my flight controller.
This leaves channels 1,2 and 3 open. Can I use a 3 wire buzzer on one of these channels to be activated by a switch on my Taranis? Or, does using channel 4 in SBUS mode preclude using the other 3 channels as normal?
Really appreciate an answer as I thought I'd ask before experimenting.
OK, my flight controller board does not support a buzzer. The PROosd VI has a buzzer port that activates 5 minutes after lost signal. I don't want to wait 5 minutes to find my quad. My friend uses beacon settings in Blheli to activate pulsing beeps from the motors. I find that also not to my liking. I WANT A BUZZER RIGHT NOW!
