Nano and PPM output

Ok, thanks for the interesting explanation.  I couldn't get it to work with 8 channels on XJT-D16 or 8 channels with D8.  I reckon I could make it work by having the transmitter talk to the XPS Tx module using PPM instead of XJT.

Thanks, have a great holiday season and take care,

Paul
