  1. Maybe somebody will buy a drone with BLheli, then i can test the adapter. (i am not realy into drones) However, it will take some time to test the unisense because its my first Helicopter build and i am still far off my maiden.
  2. Thank you guys for your help. Today i managed to update my unisense. The Kingkong adapter wont work for me, i tried several things, i even borrowed a win10 tablet. After this i ordered an adapter with an ftdi chip and build the same cabel as Max posted above. This worked as intended. So for everybody out there, if you are going to build your own cable look that you get an adapter with a ftdi chip (ft232). This is the safest way to get a working solution (at least with the highest chances) and you wont need an external power supply for the unisense. @Dick: Just for your info: the drivers from the SM website are for "FTDI chips", the kingkong adapter is using a silab CP2102 chip. Sadly the drivers cant be mixed.
  3. Hello, Thanks for your responds. Yes i first press on "verbinden" and after that i powered the unisense. Only difference between your situation and mine seems to be the powersupply and i am using windows 7. So there are multiple options: my driver is not correct, my unisens is bad, my adapter is bad or it realy does need a 2s powersupply (would be confusing, because normal USB output is about 5V). Maybe the win10 driver will work for win7 too.....

However, I have just ordered the KINGKONG PC Communications Adapter (USB/Com) from HK European warehouse at a total shipped cost of £4.19. Will report back whether or not it works once it arrives.- Thanks to all of you who took the time to respond to this thread. The KINGKONG PC Communications Adapter duly arrived from the HK warehouse in the NL. Post took its time, but it arrived in the end. **LINK** So, here is the feed back. The USB adapter worked perfectly for my purposes and allowed me to set up the UniSens-E for my JR DMSS radio and to update the firmware to the latest version. Once I have flown it in my test model (HK Tundra) I may well want to tweak other parameters, but so far on the bench all is working as it should. So, all in all the UniSens-E seems an excellent multi-purpose telemetry unit for electric models and the KINGKONG adapter at £4.19 including postage was a "bargain".

Unfortunatelly it wont do the trick for me. Are there some special drivers i need to install? (Unisens software recognices the adapter as COM6 --> Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COM6)) I connected the ground and signal wire from unisens to the adapter (gnd and sig) and in addition i powered the unisens with my esc (gnd and +). First i connected the usb adapter and set the unisens software to "connect". After that i powered the unisens. It starts to blink fast and after some seconds its a permanent red light, but it wont connect. May you are so kind and offer me some help?
