Common: CADDXFPV gimbal setup #6441
Conversation

I think that they are backwards, but I could be wrong...I only tried one way(duh)...I can rewire and try the other way today... |

@Hwurzburg, or make use of the SERIALx_OPTIONS to flip them in software. I'll continue working on this today as well so surely we will get to the bottom of it |

I think the diagram included in this PR has the TX and RX mapped correctly. I've asked CADDX so hopefully they will tell us directly but we have this picture in the manual.
Then when it discusses the MAVLink interface (which we're not using but surely the pin mapping is the same) it says UART_RX and UART_TX should be mapped to the autopilot's TX and RX respectively.

I just used the pin marked RX on the gimbal to the autopilot TX since its one way for control....so I had that correct, but still no communication |

This is slightly premature considering we don't have the driver completely working yet but I would like to know if @Hwurzburg thinks the wiring is correct or do I have the RX and TX lines backwards?
