No BST telemetry on crossfire Nano diversity Rx adapter

[ror1948]

Is there an existing issue for this problem?

• I have searched the existing issues

What part of EdgeTX is the focus of this bug?

Transmitter firmware

Current Behavior

My crossfire BST telemetry(4 entries) Nano Rx worked in the past and I have been loading the nightly builds on my TX16s.
the other normal telemetry from a nano Rx is working fine
currently loaded is 2.10.0 B0e64c8d
I tried 2.8.4 but still BST did not work.
also tried tx16s290rc1 but same problem.
crossfire 6.19
missing RxBt, curr, capa, Bat% from a current sensor on BST line
I am not sure it is the RM firmware but that is what I have been changing lately.
Maybe you can suggest another possible problem.
attached are 2 models that had the BST working with 2 different hardware Rx
thanks

Expected Behavior

those extra 4 BST telemetry lines to work.

this is the Rx adapter

It is a problem with the crossfire firmware.
It works ok with CRSF 6.07 but not with 6.19
Now what are the chances that TBS will fix the firmware?

need CRSF 6.07 for the TBS CROSSFIRE NANO DIVERSITY RX ADAPTER and BST telemetry to work
need CRSF 6.19 for the Matek CRSF-PWM-V10 telemetry to work.

All parts of CRSF system must have same version

now what?

Better than they were a few months ago... it appears TBS is coming out of the slump it's had due to covid/restrictions, staff shortages and internal disputes.

[ror1948]

yes I saw that. Most likely will not wait for the fix. Not really that high a cost. This crossfire and ELRS is great but they lack telemetry unless you pair them with the Matek PWM adapters to give some telemetry. I am a wing flyer rather than a quad flyer. thanks

Yeah, external telemetry for ELRS is still early days... but I believe plans are in the works for it.

It may still be good to directly contact TBS support so they are aware of this bug (as a customer, I consider this a bug being forced to stick with an older firmware version for it to work) so they at least can't say they aren't aware of it. Given it looks to be a discontinued line, I wouldn't hold my breath though.

[ror1948]

Yes I am talking to their support already and have told them it is their firmware....waiting for reply now do they believe me..

still no fix in crossfire 6.31 so I guess not going to happen
