EdgeTX Model Profile: Lucille

This document provides the technical configuration for Lucille on EdgeTX-based radios (e.g., RadioMaster Boxer, TX16S).

🎮 Model Settings (Standard)

FeatureValueNotes
Model NameLUCILLE
Internal RFOFFUsing ELRS External Module
External RFCRSF(ExpressLRS)
Channel RangeCH1 - CH8

🕹 Inputs

  • [I]Steer: Source: Ail, Weight: 75, Expo: 25 (Smoother turns).
  • [I]Drive: Source: Ele, Weight: 100, Expo: 15.
  • [I]Wep: Source: Thr, Weight: 100 (Left stick).

🎛 Mixes (Single-Stick Drive)

  • CH1 (L_MOT):
    • +100% [I]Drive
    • +100% [I]Steer
  • CH2 (R_MOT):
    • +100% [I]Drive
    • -100% [I]Steer (Inverted steering for tank mix)
  • CH3 (WEAPON):
    • +100% [I]Wep
  • CH5 (ARMING):
    • Source: SF (2-position switch). Must be High (+100%) for ELRS Arm.

🔄 Inverted Profile (Inverted Mode)

To drive easily when Lucille is flipped, create a Global Variable or a Special Function triggered by a switch (e.g., SC).

Inverted Mixes:

  • CH1:
    • -100% [I]Drive (Inverted forward/back)
    • +100% [I]Steer
  • CH2:
    • -100% [I]Drive
    • -100% [I]Steer

ExpressLRS Settings

For the RadioMaster ER6 receiver on Lucille, use the following settings in the elrs.lua script:

SettingValueWhy?
Packet Rate150HzSolid reliability in noisy arena environments.
Telem RatioOff (or 1:128)Prioritize control over telemetry.
Switch ModeWideRequired for full resolution on weapon channel.
Model MatchONCRITICAL: Prevents driving the wrong bot in the pits.
TX Power100mWSufficient for arena penetration.

⚠️ Safety Logic (Logical Switches)

  • L01: a < x, [I]Wep, -98% (Weapon stick at zero).
  • L02: AND, L01, SF↑ (Arming switch is ON).
  • Special Function: SF1: IF !L02, Override CH3, -100 (Safety cutoff: weapon cannot spin unless stick is at zero AND arming is active).
