Thanks Mutchy for the instructions on how to update the Co-Processor. I made an error and bricked mine But it's all well now!!


Thanks

I see. If I'm reading that right, the answer is no, the 8ch gear at this point only has the frame width for 8 channels. Not exactly - I may be mistaken but I'm very sure I read on these forums where someone was using 2 Transmitter modules and 2 Rx to get 16 channels on 1 radio. I think they used th...

I don't think it is all in one place (yet!). Most of the information is in this thread (somewhere). http://openrcforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=948 Eepe is reasonably up to date, the areas you need to look at are the custom switches and the safety/voice switches. A safety switch may be se...

I don't seem to find many Ersky audio vid showing how it is or how it actually heard. so I used Playmobil's voice file made a vid for simple demonstration. enjoy it. ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRN_oathT0s looks like I have bad ID switch contact between ID0 and ID1. ;) What you know, the audi...

Hey was wondering if anyone has a problem still using companion 9x to program the Ersky boards. I have yet to get it to work. I get this error about the "Cannot convert EEProm for this firmware original EEProm file will be used". I watch it read the eprom looks all good until it tries to w...

Had my youngest son hold the radio for me

This is how I modded my radio, in this configuration I can use any transmitter module & RX that fits the 9x. I have several planes my FPV uses the DJT / D8R-II Plus and some use the 9x RX. I removed the stock antenna and installed a pigtail in it's place. I had to epoxy the pigtail in the antenn...

Well what size would that be? I got it off this forum. I've never done this before. The editor displays it fine in Companion9x. I have no idea how to get it on the radio. Would be easy if I could use EEPE. An assist would be grateful.


Thanks in advance
Jeff

Thant's awesome! I wanna play with it!!!

They gave me a RMA for the Screen. I guess I will send it back. Does anybody have an equivalent solution for the screen suggested that will work exactly the same

I just tried the bias circuit , I does NOT work. The display still comes up blank .... I looks like these are NOT compatible with the Optrex -Brent Oh well, Figures. I will see if I can sell it on Ebay then Thanks for checking it out. Just kinda tinges a bit the Digi Rep said this would match the O...

NHD-C12864WO-B1TGH#-M-ND Talked to the rep again at DIGI-key and they found this display that is a match for the one you intended to use I think. They have 300 in stock! With a good price. I think I will try this one out myself. Thanks for all your hard work Jeff This is the one he told me would wo...

Your board was tested with the Optrex display. Are you using the back connector , and inserting the cable -contacts facing down,and then clicking the latch closed? The Two LCD connectors are in parallel , just offset by a pin., you can have only one LCD connected at a time. but if one works so shou...

Hey has anyone tried to put a Optrix Display in the new board and it not work? I've tried 2 displays now and cannot get it to work. The Optrix Display is set to be ON. I've tried reducing - increasing the brightness and contrast thinking they maybe wrong somehow. I have put that ribbon cable in seve...

Your going to need to enlighten me on how to do that - don't know what that is

When I use the Joystick camera control to look around and I let go of the control it moves back to "Home Position". I like that it does this so when I'm in a slow turn looking to the left or right and I need to look back forward again it's placed back to that forward position. DSCN2001.JPG...

No it works great. You know when the Haptic is triggered. I tested it at all the settings and found no issues with it.

I'm playing around with a psp thumb stick, and/or a mini track ball, but mounting them on the back, so when I grip the radio, the trackball or psp thumb stick is there, can use it while still flying with the my thumbs on the sticks. :D http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/cr8tive_leo/turnigy%209x%...

F-55472GNFQJ-LB-AEN "73-1355-ND" Found this screen on Digi-key. Does anybody know if it will work. Supposed to work with 3.3v. Digi-key has several versions in stock just different led lights

Hey I realize the board is setup to run the Stock LCD Screen and a Optrex LCD Screen. Will it handle a Color 3.3v Optrex LCD Screen. Is the board able handle future use of the color later? Would love to have a color screen. Even if it would only display mono that would be ok too for future modding. ...

The rest of the board uses standard 0.100" spaced connectors like a Servo extension

Thanks!!

Hey want to some more tinkering with my board and I need to know the exact name of the plugs (connectors) used on the board so I can order the correct ones. I've got and idea for a FPV mode on my radio and want to try it out.

Thanks

Jeff

Yes, The idea is to provide these items with I ship the board , I am not set up nor do I want to sell just the accessories , they are being provided at time of sale to make things easier for the end user. This whole venture was to get some boards in your hands , for sure it was not done to make any...

The price of your items are fine, it's the shipping that cramps it up. After I went and looked at the other Gruvin Board being sold with the attachments I was impressed on how much of a deal we are getting on the ersky9x board. The harness would be real nice to have, I hate trying to figure out what...

Wanted to ask some more questions to clarify some things for the new board. These are things I have not come across on my reading on the forum. When we do a flash to the board will the planes and settings we put in disappear? Here is the Link to the Code http://ersky9x.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ersky...

I just haven't had time to cobnsider updating eepe, as well as getting the ersky9x board working. However, much work has been done by others to get companion9x to 'talk' to this board. The actual connection is USB, directly to the USB connector on the board. You then need to install SAM-BA, the pro...
