Hi

I have a Lily-go TBeam running MB170 that I use in my glider. Would it be possible to add a config setting in the next release that after boot up and SoftRf and software version screen is displayed, it will switch to the TX/RX screen? I like to confirm the unit is picking up the GPS and transmitting when I power up the unit. It would save me having to make sure I have a stylus handy to hit the TBeam switch to get to that screen setting. (I lost a stylus in a previous glider, never did find where the darn thing went.)

Thanks

Eric

Nice idea Eric.  I'll try and make that happen.  Probably the main config (ID, protocol, aircraft type) screen first, then the TX/RX screen after a few seconds?

I've used a stylus so many times...  :-)

Yes that's what I was thinking.  The main config shows for say 5 secs, then switch to the TX/RX screen.  I do indeed want to fly by style!

Fly with flair, and land with flare.

That screen-switching is now working here.  Will be included in the next "release" MB171.  Still debugging the main new feature for the release.
