Mr.D - Falling with style | Creating a multi-function momentary switch in OpenTX @MrD | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 16 hours ago
Some of you may be familiar with the INAV Fixed Wing Group OpenTX models that I created. One of the really useful features of these models is the multi-function momentary switch. I can be used to trigger a few different options in the firmware as well as on the transmitter it's self. I had a few people asking how to create this feature, so here is the video for that.
There is not limit to what you can do with this switch. Any option in the OpenTX Special Functions can be activated. This includes sending stick commands to your flight controller. By the way, the stick commands for iNav are here github.com/iNavFlight/inav/blob/master/docs/Controls.md
