Guys,

Furiousfpv released the Dock-king
http://furiousfpv.com/product_info.php?cPath=29&products_id=451

Now i was curious if someone here is prepared to talk with Furious to make a Delta5 that is talking with the Dockking, so we make one for personal, 1 node. SO we can see laptimer in the OSD.

How cool is that, and if that is working, make then a small event box, for 8 dockings so, the racers is seeing his place and time in the goggle

That is somehow easy to do but does the Dock-king has some external interface that can be used to establish communication with a external device?

The Dockking has a serial port available in the form of an RJ11

So help me understand what how this would be integrated? I believe Dock King already has its own built in timer.

@scottgchin Yes the dockking has a laptimer built in, though it's highly dependant on antenna orientation and requires calibration each time. If coupled with a laptimer that's at the gate, it would be a lot more accurate. If used in multiple pilot situations, a race position can be displayed, along with showing how many pilots are still flying. You could also get livetime to set the race channels to the delta5, which can then communicate the channels to the dockking and allow for all channels to be set in one click.
