EIS 6000/Sport SX altitude hold via trim tab servo
Posted: Thu May 27, 2021 1:30 am
Greetings... I'm starting to hack together an altitude holding system as per subject line.
I'm thinking that I can use an arduino to receive serial input from either the EIS serial out or the Sport Tx out, and write the code that will send appropriate voltages to my Ray Allen trim servo, based on changes in altitude. Just wondering if anyone has done something similar. It seems as though it would be doable...
Catching the altitude bytes from the serial stream might be the most challenging aspect.
Any suggestions/dialog warmly welcomed Thanks.
Regards, J.
