Keep us posted!
Actually, giving me some rep from your phone works fine. Four times fine in fact!
So I re-soldered the RX, connected again to betaflight and had the same issues - connection recognised on betaflight as serial connection (by chain link icon,) still no stick or switch inputs recognised. I tried changing to SBUS (hold RX bind button for 2 secs and change TX options ((output - PPM, Serial - SBUS)) looks like its bound, ie. RX blue led goes from flashing to solid... Still no joy.
So tried again from the beginning - reset TX to factory defaults, went thru activating switches, re-setup iBUS etc. then tried to reinstall betaflight - omnibus and... uh oh FLAMES!! Oh
I just tried to take some more photos with the crappy camera on my phone, can't really see anything from those, gotta get my proper camera back from the in-laws...
just for reference, flames came from the black component by the led GND pad (lower middle left) and I haven't used those pads
Oh well, better luck next time I guess...
