Pi PICO with FlySky using iBus

[@bobbytheboss5442]

What's the purpose of the red microcontroller? Is it combining the inputs so it can be read on just one pin?

[@whitneydesignlabs8738]

It looks like a level shifter to protect the Pico which is 3.3v from the receiver which is 5v.

this works similarly to pulseIn in arduino ?

[@arnoldschmucker9977]

Yes

[@KURCZOKWORKS]

@@arnoldschmucker9977 How do you deal with noise while reading the signal ?

@@KURCZOKWORKS I ignored it for the time being. It worked out for this video, but I need to address it before proceeding. I am open for solutions.

@@KURCZOKWORKS - I must confess, I am much more comfortable working with Arduino and C++.

@@arnoldschmucker9977 I think using pulsein is wrong, since rc apparatus works using PWM duty cycle
