Another interesting thing you can do - since Betaflight has the ability to add aux channels to the OSD (it's something I submitted a few versions ago and they finally implemented it), you can take any of those sensors and put them up on your OSD. So, for example you wanted your radio power up in the OSD, you can do that. Also, you can do math with the mixer, so if you wanted to know how many km left you can go on your battery (km travelled divided by Batt mAh minus mAh used to get km/mAh, then multiply that out to get how many km left based on current efficiency), you could put that up in you OSD as well.

Thanks Joshua. I learned about telemetry by watching one of your older videos a couple of days ago. There's telemtetry, then there's full telemetry. Finally I understand! I was getting prepared for Namimno Flash arriving so had to get my head around lua scripts and more familiar with EdgeTx and my RM TX16s. Watched a vid on Edge Tx and the guy was using the touchscreens swipe function. You can touch top left to bring up menu, and swipe across menu to find other options like screen settings, that'll take you to widget settings too. You can swipe between main screens also. Edge Tx is class.

Just got a TX16S (and TBS CRSF Micro TX2 module) a couple weeks ago and after I powered it up I quickly realized I am going to need ''to learn something'', (again), & quickly switched it off before I changed something I shouldn't have or forget what I did change and where. When I did get the courage to power it up again (after reading what little there is available), I discovered it was too late, I messed up splash screen image and whatever all it used to display before I went poking at the buttons. Now I know where it was I had been playing around in, and that's something. Thanks for being the someone who rescues us that thought we were qualified to poke sticks at things we don't understand, (yet). How about a video, if not one already, on how to make the lady in the radio tell me more important stuff that happens during use? For now I still jump when I pull battery on Kwad and while getting a fresh one out or talking to observer she finally tells me telemetry lost.

The telemetry order number is controlled by the FC and the receiver protocol. So if you have two FC with identical versions of betaflight, and both are using CRSF receiver with same firmware, then the telemetry order should be the same between them. However, if one FC has GPS enabled, and one does not, then the order may not be the same, since one won't have GPS telemetry sensors. There isn't really a great workaround for this.

I think I know what's happening. When your ExpressLRS telemetry ratio is too low, the sensors don't all come in immediately, so they don't consistently come in the same order. You can increase your telemetry ratio from 1:128 to 1:64 or 1:32 and see if that helps. I've never seen this before on something like Crossfire or Ghost, because they carry the full telemetry data in each packet, so the sensors are always in the same order.
