i have the new mini hub+ (the one with 3 jumper pins for id).anyway, i can't get it to read the correct RPM value. it only shows half of what the actual RPM is. i tried it against the original mini hub which displays the correct rpm. i am using the Original Taranis with opentx 2.0.20. X8R rx with 4ch sbus to pwm connected. ignition has rcexl opto kill connected to 5 cell Nimh pack, the rest of the plane is 2s lipo powered w high voltage servos. any thoughts?

It's been a LONG time since I've used an RPM or mini hub -- but ... the unit I used employed a photo sensor. The number of blades of the prop was one of the parameters that needed to be configured. Perhaps this will send you in the right direction. ??

Blades divides the reported sensor value.
Multiplier multiplies.
If your are getting half expedted increase the multiplier or reduce the blades.
