Crius AIOP + SRF04/05 sonar

[bulesz]

Just made this topic because I feel this is an important information whom wanna use the sonar:

As in the guide connect the Echo to the 10 and the Trigger to the 9 pin on the board!

BUT connect the power wires (gnd - and vcc +) to the BEC or the RX (if you get the BEC power though the RX, like me)

When I connected to the board it wasn';t working...
...so I just gave a try because I have red that the FC board couldn';t provide 5V...and it is working now!
