SoarOTX is a package of sailplane models for OpenTX transmitters. It provides Lua scripts for timing and score keeping, graphing of log data (e.g. altitude graphs), and model configuration. All FrSky Taranis models (including lite), Radiomaster TX12, and Jumper T12 transmitters are supported, but color screen radios such as Horus, TX16, and T16 are not supported. The reason is that color screen radios come with Lua "widgets" instead of Lua "telemetry screens", and widgets do not support user inputs via key events, so I cannot make interactive scripts for that type of radios. This is a decision made by the OpenTX team, and there is unfortunately not much that I can do about it. The following models are available:

1. F3K - Discus Launch Glider (DLG) with flaperons.
2. F3K Traditional - DLG without some special features of the above.
3. F3K FH - DLG with a full house wing.
4. F3K RE - DLG with only rudder and elevator.
5. F5K - DLG-like electric glider for the new multi-task competition format.
6. F3J - Thermal duration gliders with flaps and ailerons, launched by a winch or hi-start.
7. F5J - Electric thermal duration gliders with flaps and ailerons.
8. F3RES - Gliders with rudder, elevator, and spoilers, launched with a hi-start.

Please read this Wiki carefully, and if you have any questions afterwards, feel free to ask me at my threads on RCGroups (F3K, F5J and F5K or F3J and F3-RES).

I no longer use this software myself (I use Jeti today) and therefore it is no longer being developed and maintained.

EdgeTX users: there is a version of this software included with color radios (only 480x272). I no longer maintain it, but AFAIK it is still being maintained by the EdgeTX team. For EdgeTX users with black/white radios, you are on your own with model setup, but this F3K score keeping script should work. Please see the README for how to set it up.
