This is the first official release of **Rotorflight Lua Scripts for Ethos**. | ||
|
||
*Rotorflight* is a _Flight Control_/_FBL_ Software Suite for traditional single-rotor RC helicopters. It is based on Betaflight, enjoying all the great features of the Betaflight platform, plus many new features added for helicopters. | ||
|
||
*Rotorflight Lua Scripts for Ethos* is a package of Ethos Lua scripts for configuring the Rotorflight flightcontroller from the transmitter. | ||
|
||
## Requirements | ||
|
||
- Ethos 1.1.0 or later | ||
- an X10, X12, X18, X20 or Twin X Lite transmitter | ||
- a FrSky Smartport or F.Port receiver using ACCESS, ACCST, TD or TW mode | ||
|
||
## Tested Receivers | ||
|
||
The following receivers were correctly working with an X18 or X20 transmitter. | ||
- TD MX 1.0.10 | ||
- R9 MX ACCESS 1.3.2 | ||
- R9 Mini ACCESS 1.3.1 | ||
- Archer RS ACCESS 2.1.10 | ||
- RX6R ACCESS 2.1.8 | ||
- R-XSR ACCESS 2.1.8 | ||
- R-XSR ACCST FCC F.port 2.1.0 | ||
- Archer Plus RS and Archer Plus RS Mini ACCESS F.Port 1.0.5 | ||
|
||
Note: when saving changes fails, the scripts will automatically retry. The R-XSR and the Archer Plus RS (Mini) seem to retry regularly, while the other receivers rarely do this. | ||
|
||
## Installation | ||
|
||
Download the the zip file under *Assets* latest files and copy the `RF` folder to the `scripts` folder on your transmitter. You will know if you did this correctly if the *Rotorflight* tool shows up on the Ethos system menu. | ||

|
||
