David, please PM me and we'll get in touch via email. I did the autothrottle app .. but not the CTU app .. let's see if we can figure this out.

Gary,

There is one file (the lua code itself) and one directory (which contains sound clips and other associated data). Both need to be copied for an initial install. After that, if the associated...

Gary,

Good work on the 10% callouts!

Yes, I know the units are annoying :-) I don't think there is a way to get it not to do that with the standard callouts but it's trivial with a Lua program...

Ah, nice, autothrottle for CTU! Love it!
Dave

Here is a screenshot of the autothrottle on the TX. I did a simulation of the throttle response to airspeed to set up the PID loop. It's kind of fun...

Gary,

I wrote a Lua program to announce time and fuel remaining at :30 or :60 intervals or on a switch press. Yes, the TX can do the time announce itself :-) But I wanted fuel state and time to be...

Been flying the large VJ with the P300. Looks like 0.8 is not a good factor when actually flying .. probably (as Carsten expected) closer to 1.0 which is the Jetcat default. I'll do some more...

Ah, I see. Perfectly sensible.

But now I have to make a confession... I did the calibration run twice but did not take the throttle much past half since I did not have 3 people to hold down the...

I have two P200s, so will eventually see what I get for them. The pump for the P300 is MUCH larger (e.g. about 2x the physical size) than the one on the P200 so perhaps not surprising the factor is...

Imagine that :-)

I presume it should be a very reliable measurement, especially on the brushless pumps where the ECU can precisely specify the RPM .. since the gear pumps have a specific...

Thanks Carsten. Just to be clear, I did not expect that the CTU calculations were the same as, or compatible with the numbers used by Gaspar's devices. And I am sure it will vary by specific engine...

Hi CTU fans. I just spent a few hours on the test stand with a Merlin 200XBL turbine (with the brushless/digital pump) connected to the CTU.

My goal was to find the correct fuel consumption...

The first "question mark" was a message re: RX signal, second is the funny "X1" next "X100" then finally a turbine shutdown.

I presume the "x1" and "x100" are not from CTU based on your comments...

Do you know if failures with the MUI current sensor chip? Looks like Carsten is using the same one (or very similar) which looks VERY robust to me. Of course a bad soldering job is always possible by...

Sounds like a nice little project for an end-user to extend the Lua code for the CTU to get consumption from the MUI and persist it over transmitter power ons :-)
