VTX channel management and verification #5

Open destos opened 8 years ago

Onboard receiver used to scan available channels and map out best frequency space for new racers to switch. Automated switching to available spaces could also be a feature for users with a compatible racing transponder/VTX combo device. ( in the plan )

Other ideas:

Use it as a spectrum analyzer and notify the organizers if there are and issues or people are overlapping. Even better, if a spectrum analyser with some sort of external port is available ( USB ), plug that into the raspberry pi and use it.

If a frequency become congested while a user is flying, switch the frequency of that flyer dynamically to a new one. Would require that pilot's goggles be plugged into our receiver or be using a dynamic switcher like the LaForge module. Would be best if it wasn't switched based on IR. Maybe another esp8266 unit?
