Bootloader for Open source video transmitter firmware

OpenVTx firmware can be found from https://github.com/OpenVTx/OpenVTx

Flashing the VTx bootloader

See OpenVTx flashing documentation how to connect ST-Link.

See EWRF E7082VM bootloader flash helper for a 3D print to help with initial bootloader flash.

Select Generic_GD32F130_bootloader env and hit upload to flash a bootloader.

Note: This automatically removes protections so no need to use ST-Link Utility anymore. Make sure the red led starts blinking after flashing! If not you might need open ST-Link utility and just apply option bytes. This seems to be a problem with some GD32 MCUs

Next you need to flash OpenVTx firmware:

  • Connect VTX to FC.
  • Select protocol VTX (TBS SmartAudio). After the first flash any protocol can be used for future flashing.
  • Go to https://openvtx.org/, select a Target, then Flash.

Happy flying :)
