Craft and Theory Iris+ FrSky Telemetry Installation

Requires:
- Iris+
- FrSky X4R, X4RSB, X6R or X8R receiver
- Craft and Theory telemetry cable for FrSky receivers
- Craft and Theory Ardupilot Firmware (Pixhawk)
- Craft and Theory display interface script (Taranis)

Preliminary steps not shown:
- Installing custom firmware on Pixhawk
- Installing CT display interface script on Taranis
- Discovering sensors on OpenTX

The interface displays the following information on the Taranis LCD:

Flight mode (+Simple/SuperSimple)
Flight timer as determined by autopilot (paused when landed)
RC link signal quality
RC transmitter battery voltage
Heads-Up display (HUD) – similar to Mission Planner’s HUD and extremely fast 24+Hz update rate!
Heading and compass bezel
Pitch and roll
Altitude and horizontal speed
Battery information (requires power module and battery mAh to be configured in Mission Planner)
Battery pack voltage
Average cell voltage (or lowest cell voltage if a FrSky LiPo voltage sensor is connected)
Current/power draw
Number of cells in battery pack
Lowest recorded or nominal battery pack and cell voltages
Highest current/power draw
Remaining battery capacity bar
Vehicle position
Orientation relative to home position
Distance from home
Distance above ground (if equipped with a range finder)
GPS signal quality
GPS fix indicator (no GPS, no fix, 2D, 3D)
Number of satellites or HDOP
MAVLink messages
Alerts and error messages (same as Mission Planner)
Failsafe flags
Information messages

MAVLink statustext, system_status, and ekf_status_report messages (as would appear in Mission Planner) are shown in the bottom panel of the LCD for ten seconds after being received, but the list of received MAVLink messages can also be viewed on a second page.

The scripts also provide audible sound alerts consisting of:
• Flight mode (e.g., “stabilize,” “loiter”),
• “Normal/simple/super simple mode,”
• “Armed”/“disarmed,”
• “Landing complete” each time the copter lands (which pauses the flight timer)
• “Message received” each time a MAVLink message is received,
• “Battery at 50%,”
• “Battery warning” when 25% is left,
• “Battery low” if the lowest cell voltage is below the [LowVx10] value,
• “Battery critical” if the lowest cell voltage is below the [CritVx10] value,
• “Battery failsafe” which repeats every [RepeatT] seconds if triggered,
• “EKF failsafe” which repeats every [RepeatT] seconds if triggered.
The parameters in brackets can be configured from the Taranis, and the sounds can be disabled altogether.

Very, very interesting your contribution, I would like to know that significant changes, which benefits I get when changing the original RC Iris + with this new RC?
Greetings.

omg is so difficult to get that to work on my taranis plus.
