Flashing to Syma X5SC/X5SC-1 about cg023

[silver13]

there is a syma board with stm32fxxx processor, mine is marked SM-X5S-R , if you have one, then yes, it can be done

[entozoon]

Yes, my X5SC appears to have the same board!

I managed to successfully erase and flash the syma-x5s-r branch to it.. but can't bind the transmitter anymore.

It just slowly pulses a few times, then flashes rapidly forever without binding no matter what I try :(

Any ideas? I feel like I'm so close!

that board looks identical to mine

That is a Beken BK2425? radio, I only coded one protocol for it, and tested it with devo. I haven't got a stock tx for it, so I'm not sure if the code is compatible with it or not

the chip is nrf24l01 compatible, you might be able to make a transmitter for it using something like this

BK2425 is similar, but not equal, to NRF24l01.
It needs magic numbers and initialization of Bank0 and Bank1 to be operative.
That's why it doesn't connect anymore.
I wasd trying to solve it but is far beyond my coding knowledge.
BK24xx Library
Found it on GitHub and this is what I saw to solve the problem, but indeed I miserably failed.
If Silver13 is capable (and I know he is) to read the code to integrate it in the branch, I (and many more ppls) will be sooooo happy.

there is rx code for it, I just can't code the protocol because the devo code is a subset of the stock protocol, so it will only bind to devo as far as I know

Well... I found and hassle free (I hope) solution.
I'm going to replace the BK2425 with an nRF24l01, as it is supposed to work out of the box...
I'll give it a shot and I'll tell you.
Cheers dude

Hi. You can use this code, https://github.com/roland2025/CG023/tree/syma-x5sc

It will bind with stock transmitter, but there are some issues with channel hopping, about 50% of packages get lost.

Received a logic analyser today, so I can soon try to take a look what the stock tx is doing.
