RadioMaster TX16S - DUPLETX_TX_BACKPACK vs ESP_TX_BACKPACK #130

Closed i3v closed 7 months ago

i3v commented 7 months ago

I just tried to update the TX backpack firmware in my RadioMaster TX16S (mk2, ELRS). The "RadioMaster" - "RadioMaster TX16S Internal 2.4GHz TX" target which looks like an almost exact match. image

However, after uploading the firmware file via WiFi, I get the "Targets Mismatch" error:

Targets Mismatch Current target: DUPLETX_TX_BACKPACK. Uploaded image: ESP_TX_BACKPACK.

The firmware update web page says:

From here you can update your TX Backpack module with DUPLETX_TX_Backpack firmware Firmware Rev. 1.1.0 (710107)

  1. Any idea where this mismatch comes from and if it's safe to proceed?
  2. Is the DUPLETX_TX_Backpack some RadioMaster proprietary stuff, provided that it seem to be not mentioned in this repository?

I just received an email from RadioMaster support (which was really fast, btw). They confirmed that it's OK to continue. Thus, I've just updated it to master (88ce11). Everything seem to be OK for now - (well, at least the WiFi firmware upgrade web page looks OK).
