Summary and Additional Resources

There you have it. We’ve only scratched the surface of what OpenTX can do, but the examples
given here will suffice to get all but the most exotic combat robots up and running. Now that
you’ve got a taste of how the firmware works you have a good base for implementing less
common functions and features, like:



Triple rates



Voice prompts



Logical switches



Exponential curves



What those knobs can do

And even a four-channel omnidirectional Mecanum drive mix!

Here are some resources to get you started:



OpenTX University - http://open-txu.org/


