Known Limitations and Issues
- Wireless Model Trainer and CRSF/ELRS - if using the Multi Protocol Module (MPM) as a wireless trainer in conjunction with CRSF/ELRS, do not go above 250 Hz, otherwise the MPM wireless trainer will be dropped. 250 Hz or below is stable.
- Due to a change in how the battery voltage calculation is done, you may want to double-check the accuracy of your measured battery voltage if you have calibrated it in the past. #5635, #6255
UI/UX behavioral changes and/or new capabilities:
- Color LCD: menus now "wrap around" when using the rotary encoder, allowing you to get to back to the top of the list quickly (#4867)
- Companion: New menus have been added, and menu entries reorganized to be no so cluttered and more logical (#5753)
- Companion: Now automatically validates if any model settings have any missing mixer or input sources, and prevents writing of invalid model configurations to handset, while turning invalid model names red. Shows a red/green traffic light at the bottom of the models window to indicate overall status (#5798)
