Under Construction

Easy to setup (really just the third pin plug and telemetry slider in configurator) and provides the following Telemetry Data:
- Provided by Rx:
  - Fades (frames lost by individual sub-Rx)
  - Frames (frames of data lost buy all combined Rx)
  - Holds (Failsafe caused buy more than 40 continuous Frame losses)
  - Some may provide Rx bus (BEC) voltage, SPM4649T appears to not provide it
- Provided by Betaflight/FLEXF3:
  - Main Battery Pack (Main 3S) Voltage
  - Virtual (estimated) Current
  - Virtual (estimated) Capacity used (fuel totalizer)
Choose a telemetry capable receiver such as the SPM4649T (Preferred) or AR8010T
Bind the receiver to the transmitter
Connect to FLEXF3 using the first 3 pins (-,+,signal). (Use 3-male to 3-mail pin cable if required for AR8010T style receivers)
Use your configuration tool to: (hit the pages 'Save' button before leavng each page)

Set Telemetry Slider and Save
- On Configuration page
  - Make sure Receiver Mode is set to a serial based receiver.
  - Make sure Serial Receiver Provider is set to SPEKTRUM2040/SRXL
  - Now in Other Features, set the TELEMETRY slider to ON.
- On the Receiver page, make sure your Channel Map is set to TAER1234 (SPEKTRUM)
You should now have Telemetry, and you can use your transmitters instructions and settings to display and alarm as desired.

Only Telemetry provided by the Rx is available. Receivers are available that can sample Main Pack Voltage.
Betaflight/FLEXF3 Data not available, so no Betaflight settings are made.
- Choose an S.Bus capable receiver (T-FHSS, FASSTest) that provides Telemetry and has a Voltage port (XXX, R7008SB FASSTest)
- "Y" or "Split" the small cable that provides Voltage Data to the FLEXF3. Install the Futaba compatible Voltage Cable/Plug to the voltage cable. (check polarity carefully!)
- Plug the voltage cable into the receiver
- Follow the Futaba instruction to configure the Futaba equipment to display/alert with telemetry

Powerful, but requires custom made cable.
- Provided by Rx:
  - Radio Signal Data ??
  - Receiver bus voltage (BEC) ??
- Provided by Betaflight/FLEXF3:
  - Main Battery Pack (Main 3S) Voltage
  - Virtual (estimated) Current
  - Virtual (estimated) Capacity used (fuel totalizer)
  - Horizon Angle in Pitch and Roll
Choose a telemetry capable receiver such as the EX R3
Bind the receiver to the transmitter
Fabricate the Custom 3-pin to 4-pin male to male cable
Connect to FLEXF3 using the first 3 pins (-,+,signal) at the Rx's EX Bus Port and 4-pins at the FLEXF3 (-,+,Rx,Tx)
Use your configuration tool to: (hit the pages 'Save' button before leaving each page)

Set Telemetry Slider and Save
- On Configuration page
  - Make sure Receiver Mode is set to a serial based receiver.
  - Now set the Serial Receiver Provider to JETIEXBUS
  - Now in Other Features, set the TELEMETRY slider to ON.
- On the Receiver page, make sure your Channel Map is set to TAER1234 (SPEKTRUM)
You should now have Telemetry, and you can use your transmitters instructions and settings to display and alarm as desired.
