Hi,
I am trying to establish communication between an ESP32 and the Aero RTF via UART.
For that I am trying to use the Telemetry Header (J5) on the Expansion Board.
So i connected GND and +5V to each other, and TX and RX crosswise.
On my ESP32 I am running a little program that simply echoes everything received from UART to a little OLED, which works fine when connected to my PC or to another ESP32. Baudrate is set to 115200.
I am following this Guide: 95 (References) FPGA
uavnet@uav:~$ sudo spi_xfer -b 1 -c 1 -w 2 -d d98d
spi mode: 0
bits per word: 8
max speed: 4000000 Hz
TX: 0x8d 0xd9
RX: 0x0 0x0
uavnet@uav:~$ sudo spi_xfer -b 1 -c 1 -w 2 -d 008e
spi mode: 0
bits per word: 8
max speed: 4000000 Hz
TX: 0x8e 0x0
RX: 0x0 0x0
uavnet@uav:~$ sudo spi_xfer -b 1 -c 1 -w 2 -d 558f
spi mode: 0
bits per word: 8
max speed: 4000000 Hz
TX: 0x8f 0x55
RX: 0x0 0x0But nothing happens.
On my the FPGA i flashed this JAM-file from the fpga aero samples.
Does anyone have any idea what my mistake is? I also tried the aero-rtf.jam configuration, didn't work either.
p.s.: I feel like the linked wiki-article is faulty in some way ( or i just dont get it)
first it says that u have to set the first bit to 0 for write-operation and to 1 for read operation, but in the examples it uses 0x8D to WRITE in Register 0x0D.
