Sensor AHRS beta Pre-release
Pre-release
  • Added MPU-9250/BMP280 sensor based AHRS implementation from @westphae.
  • Changed green LED function when "Maintenance required". When a critical system error exists (displayed on the main page of the webui), the GDL90 "maintenance required" bit is set and the green LED blinks.

Make sure to refresh browser cache to see new features placed in the webui relevant to AHRS calibration (settings) and the different "GPS/AHRS" page display.

Any sensor board with the MPU-9250 connected to the I2C pins on the RPi should work fine (the Stratux sensor board, RY836AI, OpenFlightSolutions AHRS, and a few other ones around).

AHRS data won't display in ForeFlight.

Fixed bug causing infrequent ADS-B disconnects.

  • Remove SD card auto-expand feature added in v1.2r1.
  • Remove development tools from release image.
  • Limit CPU speed (lower power consumption and potential EMI benefits).
  • GPS handling improvements.

Partition auto-expanding (first boot) was added in v1.2r1 and caused and increase in failed SD card reports. This release removes the feature and keeps the image at the same fixed size as previous to v1.2r1, but removes some development tools. There are two images in this release - the normal production image and a "-dev" image for those that wish to recompile stratux and are able to use their full SD card without issue.

  • Removed experimental RY835AI support (except for u-blox GPS portion).
  • Added experimental PingEFB support.
  • Added GPS attitude (when a GPS unit is detected, GPS attitude is always calculated and sent to EFBs with Stratux AHRS support).
  • webui cleanup.
  • Added command line utilities (ssid/eeprom programming/etc).
  • GPS implementation bug fixes and improvements.
  • Serial output for CP2102 with a programmed EEPROM.
  • "Developer mode" webui menu.
  • UAT statistics display.
  • Other various webui improvements and bug fixes.
  • Change green LED meaning on RPi - was: filesystem write, now: Stratux running.

  • Added "Raspberry Pi 3 Model B" support to image (use the integrated Wi-Fi, not an external dongle as required with older hardware).
  • Upgraded Raspbian and Raspberry Pi firmware on image.
  • Removed client expiry code - caused issue on units with a GPS installed that was not getting a fast GPS lock (WebUI shows messages being received, EFB does not).
  • Dongle handling improvements.
