The Deviation project (on which this project was based) have a useful list of models and protocols [here](http://www.deviationtx.com/wiki/supported_models).
- **Channel Order** - The channel order assumed in all the documentation is AETR. You can change this in the compilation settings. The module will take whatever input channel order and will rearrange them to match the output channel order required by the selected protocol.
- **Italic numbers** are referring to protocol/sub_protocol numbers that you should use if the radio (serial mode only) is not displaying (yet) the protocol you want to access.
1. The transmitter will automatically initiate a bind sequence on power up. This is for models where the receiver expects to rebind every time it is powered up. In these protocols you do not need to press the bind button at power up to bind, it will be done automatically. In case a protocol is not autobind but you want to enable it, change the "Autobind" (or "Bind at powerup" on OpenTX) setting to Y for the specific model/entry.
- It's recommended to combine Throttle cut with another button to drive the bind channel. This will prevent to launch a bind while flying...
- Bind channel does not have to be assigned to a free channel. Since it only acts when Throttle is Low (and throttle cut active), it could be used on the same channel as Flip for example since you are not going to flip your model when Throttle is low... Same goes for RTH and such other features.
- Using channel 16 for the bind channel seems the most relevant as only one protocol so far is using 16 channels which is FrSkyX. But even on FrSkyX this feature won't have any impact since there is NO valid reason to have Autobind set to Y for such a protocol.
## Default Mapping of Protocols in PPM mode<a name="DefaultMapping"></a>
Here is the default mapping of protocols to the 16-position protocol selection switch on the module. You can customize these when you compile your own firmware as described in [Compiling and Programming.](docs/Compiling.md)
Option is used to change the servo refresh rate. A value of 0 gives 50Hz (min), 70 gives 400Hz (max). Specific refresh rate value can be calculated like this option=(refresh_rate-50)/5.
Option for this protocol corresponds to fine frequency tuning. This value is different for each Module and **must** be accurate otherwise the link will not be stable.
Check the [Frequency Tuning page](/docs/Frequency_Tuning.md) to determine it.

### Sub_protocol COR_V1 - *0*
Corona FSS V1 RXs
### Sub_protocol COR_V2 - *1*
Corona DSSS V2 RXs: CR8D, CR6D and CR4D
To bind V2 RXs you must follow the below procedure (original):
- press the bind button and power on the RX
- launch a bind from Multi -> the RX will blink 2 times
- turn off the RX **and** TX(=Multi)
- turn on the RX **first**
- turn on the TX(=Multi) **second**
- wait for the bind to complete -> the RX will flash, stop and finally fix
- wait some time (more than 30 sec) before turning off the RX
- turn off/on the RX and test that it can reconnect instantly, if not repeat the bind procedure
- With the TX off, put the binding plug in and power on the RX (RX LED slow blink), then power it down and remove the binding plug. Receiver should now be in autobind mode.
- With the TX off, put the binding plug in and power on the RX (RX LED slow blink), then power it down and remove the binding plug. Receiver should now be in autobind mode.
- Turn the dial to the model number running protocol DEVO on the module.
- Press the bind button and turn on the TX. TX is now in autobind mode.
- Release bind button after 1 second: RX LED solid, TX LED fast blink.
- Wait for bind on the TX to complete (TX LED solid).
- Press the bind button for 1 second. TX/RX is now in fixed ID mode.
- To verify that the TX is in fixed mode: power cycle the TX, the module LED should be solid ON (no blink).
- Note: Autobind/fixed ID mode is linked to the dial number. Which means that you can have multiple dial numbers set to the same protocol DEVO with different RX_Num and have different bind modes at the same time. It enables PPM users to get model match under DEVO.
This roughly corresponds to the number of channels supported, but many of the newer 6-channel receivers actually support the WK2801 protocol. It is recommended to try the WK2801 protocol 1st when working with older Walkera models before attempting the WK2601 or WK2401 mode, as the WK2801 is a superior protocol. The WK2801 protocol supports up to 8 channels.
- With the TX off, put the binding plug in and power on the RX (RX LED slow blink), then power it down and remove the binding plug. Receiver should now be in autobind mode.
- Turn on the TX, set protocol = WK2X01, sub_protocol = WK2801 with option=0, turn off the TX (TX is now in autobind mode).
- Turn on RX (RX LED fast blink).
- Turn on TX (RX LED solid, TX LED fast blink).
- Wait for bind on the TX to complete (TX LED solid).
- Make sure to set the RX_Num value for model match.
- Change option to 1 to use the global ID.
- Do not touch option/RX_Num anymore.
Bind procedure using PPM:
- With the TX off, put the binding plug in and power on the RX (RX LED slow blink), then power it down and remove the binding plug. Receiver should now be in autobind mode.
- Turn on RX (RX LED fast blink).
- Turn the dial to the model number running protocol protocol WK2X01 and sub_protocol WK2801 on the module.
- Press the bind button and turn on the TX. TX is now in autobind mode.
- Release bind button after 1 second: RX LED solid, TX LED fast blink.
- Wait for bind on the TX to complete (TX LED solid).
- Press the bind button for 1 second. TX/RX is now in fixed ID mode.
- To verify that the TX is in fixed mode: power cycle the TX, the module LED should be solid ON (no blink).
- Note: Autobind/fixed ID mode is linked to the dial number. Which means that you can have multiple dial numbers set to the same protocol WK2X01 and sub_protocol WK2801 with different RX_Num and have different bind modes at the same time. It enables PPM users to get model match.
WK2601 Heli: AIL, ELE, THR, RUD, GYRO are proportional. Gear (ch 5) is binary. COL (ch 6) is linked to Thr. If Ch6 >= 0, the receiver will apply a 3D curve to the Thr. If Ch6 <0,thereceiverwillapplynormalcurvestotheThr.ThevalueofCh6definestheratioofCOLtoTHR.
- model/type/number of channels indicated on the RX can be different from what the RX is in fact wanting to see. So don't hesitate to test different combinations until you have something working. Using Auto is the best way to find these settings.
- RX output will match the Spektrum standard TAER independently of the input configuration AETR, RETA...
- RX output will match the Spektrum standard throw (1500µs +/- 400µs -> 1100..1900µs) for a 100% input. This is true for both Serial and PPM input. For PPM, make sure the end points PPM_MIN_100 and PPM_MAX_100 in _config.h are matching your TX ouput. The maximum ouput is 1000..2000µs based on an input of 125%.
- If you want to override the above and get maximum throw (old way) uncomment in _config.h the line #define DSM_FULL_THROW . In this mode to achieve standard throw use a channel weight of 84%.
The "AUTO" feature enables the TX to automatically choose what are the best settings for your DSM RX and update your model protocol settings accordingly.
The current radio firmware which are able to use the "AUTO" feature are ersky9x (9XR Pro, 9Xtreme, Taranis, ...), er9x for M128(9XR)&M2561 and OpenTX (mostly Taranis).
For these firmwares, you must have a telemetry enabled TX and you have to make sure you set the Telemetry "Usr proto" to "DSMx".
Also on er9x you will need to be sure to match the polarity of the telemetry serial (normal or inverted by bitbashing), while on ersky9x you can set "Invert COM1" accordinlgy.
Option=1 -> enable telemetry with [Silverxxx firmware](https://github.com/silver13/H101-acro/tree/master). Value returned to the TX using FrSkyD Hub are RX RSSI, TX RSSI, A1=uncompensated battery voltage, A2=compensated battery voltage
It is a FHSS protocol developed by Dennis Cabell (KE8FZX) using the NRF24L01+ 2.4 GHz transceiver. 45 channels are used frequency hop from 2.403 through 2.447 GHz. The reason for using 45 channels is to keep operation within the overlap area between the 2.4 GHz ISM band (governed in the USA by FCC part 15) and the HAM portion of the band (governed in the USA by FCC part 97). This allows part 15 compliant use of the protocol, while allowing licensed amateur radio operators to operate under the less restrictive part 97 rules if desired.
4 to 16 channels with telemetry (RSSI, V1, V2). V1 & V2 can be used to return any analog voltage between 0 and 5 volts, so can be used for battery voltage or any other sensor that provides an analog voltage.
Stores failsafe values in the RX. The channel values are set when the sub-protocol is changed to 6, so hold sticks in place as the sub-protocol is changed.
There are 3 versions of this small quad, this protocol is for the one with a XNS104 IC in the stock Tx and PAN159CY IC in the quad. The xn297 version is compatible with the CX10 protocol (green pcb). The LT8910 version is not supported yet.
