Re: Support for LP5DSM Transmitter/DSM2 protocol -- possible

so my first question to those that do is: Does this chip even have a chance at ever communicating with the Crazyflie's NRF24L01+ chipset? No. I'm also aware of the possibility to talk PPM from the TX to the Crazyradio, and if anyone could provide me with some schematics here I'd also be eager to tr...

[SOLVED] How do I change the radio parameters?

How do I change the radio parameters; channel and data rate? Do they only get updated when flashing a new crazyflie firmware?
