A new update has just been released which should make channel management a little more convenient for people using Fluctus at Balls32 from tomorrow.
Now when Fluctus starts up, its ID number is also displayed on the screen. This is an important value that needs to be kept in mind because it's this number that will ease you to check that you're listening to the right flight computer at launch. In the softwares this ID is also prominently shown.
As soon as you plug it in, it will check if there's any activity on the configured radio channel, and if there is, it will switch to the next channel automatically (e.g. if it's on channel C, it will switch to D). If it needs to make this change, you'll hear a long low-pitched beep followed by a series of high-pitched beeps indicating the new channel (1 beep = A, 2 = B, etc.).
Otherwise, the easiest way to verify your channel is to use the new proximity scan feature on the ground station:
press and hold the main button to start the scan, and after a few seconds, you'll have every Flutus or Reperix that have been detected displayed on the screen with their respective channels, and of course their unique ID.
