PRM-03 FAQ
Q: What flight controllers, transmitters and receivers are compatible with PRM-03?
A: Flight controllers: PIXHAWK/Mini Pix/TURBO PiX/APM
Transmitters:AT10II/AT10/AT9S Pro/AT9S/AT9
Receivers:R9D/R9DS/R10D/R10DII/R10DS/R12DS
Note: Old version AT9 needs to upgrade the firmware to V1.2.6(OSD)or above while AT10II needs to upgrade to V1.0.6(OSD)or above.
Q: How to connect the receiver and flight controller with PRM-03?
A:1. With receiver (R12DS as an example): one end of the 4pin wire is to the pins on the receiver while the other end of the wire is to the balance head of the battery as the below picture shows
2. With the flight controller: one end of the wire to PRM-03 while the other is to the TELEM port on the flight controller
Mini Pix as example TURBO PIX as example
PIXHAWK as an example APM as an example
Q: What telemetry information does PRM-03 have?
A: Capable of telemetry of flight speed, rising speed, throttle, battery voltages, longitude, latitude, GPS, signal, RSSI, flight modes, direction, roll, pitch, and distance.
Q: Why only telemetry of model voltage is sent to the transmitter when PRM-03 is used with the flight controller?
A: Since ardupilot updated the firmware recently, when users use PRM-03 with RadioLink transmitters AT9S Pro, AT9S, AT9, AT10II, AT10, and the ardupilot pixhawk flight controller with the V4.1 or above firmware, only telemetry of model voltage is supported, telemetry of other OSD data is not supported. Please solve the problem by changing the value of SERIAL1-PROTOCOL and SERIAL2-PROTOCOL in Mission Planner.
CONFIG- Full Parameter Tree- search “serial”
-Change the value of SERIAL1-PROTOCOL and SERIAL2-PROTOCOL
to 1(MAVLink)
Note: PRM-03 produced before May 31, 2022 can refer to this
method to modify the value, and those produced after May 31,
2022 do not need to modify the value.
Q: Why does the signal tower on the transmitter screen (AT10II/AT10/AT9S Pro/AT9S/AT9) disappear after connecting with PRM-03?
A: It’s probably because the connection to the PRM-03 is not good or the chip doesn’t function and needs to be repaired.
Q: What minimum speed can PRM-03 get from the flight controller?
A: 0.1m/s. That means the minimum speed that can be displayed on the telemetry interface of the transmitter is 0.1m/s.
Q: There is telemetry information when PRM-03 is connected to the TELEM2 port of PIX6/PIXHAWK/CrossRace/CrossRace Pro/CrossFlight/CrossFlight-CE/Mini Pix flight controller , but no OSD information when PRM-03 is connected to the TELEM1 port of the flight controller. Why?
A: You need to adjust the parameter of the flight controller. Connect the flight controller to Mission Planner. Search for SERIAL1_PROTOCOL in the Full Parameter List. Select MAVLink2, and click Write Paras to save the modification.
Q: Can PRM-03 be connected to F722 flight controller?
A: Yes. Please flash APM firmware on F405. (APM firmware download link: www.radiolink.com/f405_apm_firmware).
Connection instructions: Connect the left end of the PRM-03 to the receiver, and the right end to F405 flight controller. Connect the TX and RX pins on the right side of the PRM-03 to any RX and TX pins on F405 (see the diagram below). Connect the 5V and GND pins to any 5V and GND pins on F405.
Note: Connect the TX pin on the right side of the PRM-03 to the RX pin on F405; Connect the RX pin on the right side of the PRM-03 to the TX pin on F405.
Q: Can PRM-03 be connected to F722 flight controller?
A: No.
