Odd serial baud rates

05 Sep 2011

I am currently trying to make a telemetry link between an FPV (First person view) RC airplane and the ground. An FPV aircraft has a camera an video link in addition to all the features of a regular RC plane, so I can see what the plane is "seeing". This allows me to go much farther and higher, and do things like fly down mountains at 150 mph.

(Not my video unfortunately)

There are two radios in inter-aircraft communication. There is one going from the joysticks to the airplane for control inputs, and another one going from the airplane to the ground for video and audio. I have made an AVR on the plane read data from a GPS and the batteries. It transmits the data over the audio line with AFSK modulation. On the receiver side, I have an XR2211 decoding the FSK and spitting out ones and zeroes. However, I picked non standard frequencies (1 = 3000mhz, 0 = 2000mhz) and I am forced to use 1000 baud or a multiple (unless I want to make another order to get new components)

Is it possible to have a Serial class go at 1000 baud?

The list of supported baud rates is:

110, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400, 460800, 921600

However I have successfully generated Serial data at 1000 baud.

Are odd number bauds fully supported?
