Re: new here and stuck on loading and unloading a piece of code repeatedly without memory errors

[Guido ter Horst <g.terhorst@...>]

that's part of the problem. there is a transmitter simulator for the PC, but it has much more resources so the memory problems do not occur. That means I can't do bugfixing the normal way. 

I thought if someone would look through the code to see if the structure is correct or not, and see any starters faults. 

there are some functions specificly loaded for the taranis transmitter. The drawtext is such a function. They are preceded by 'lcd.' for the screen functions, and by 'model.' for the transmitter specific settings for channels and mixes and so on.

Thanks for at least looking at it.

You might want to ask whomever provided you the software.

lcd.drawText is not a standard Lua function.

The standard Lua functions are documented here:

What happens on a "crash"?  Can you view a stack trace?
