it would be more accurate to say that I can only communicate with DXR receivers and I tried burning firmware 2.2.4 from Companion without the expected change. the rxnum sequence is out of order and I suppose this goes hand in hand with other. Any help will be appreciated.

I have an early version X9D that does not communicate with the X8R receivers since the XJT v2.1.0 upgrade. The small printing on the Frsky site warns about that possibility. Could we re burn the opentx 2.2.4 firmware to over write the XJT patch. Or have I lost the forest for the trees.

Thank you for your interest

Thank you. upon inspection,I couldn't see any damage other than the scorch marks. With Martin Phillips article on OpenTX Version 2.1.9 I reloaded the firmware and a new simple model to the SD card and I was able to regain control of my X9D. After calibration I bound the tx to a D8R-II plus and now I...

Thank for all the help.

Finished an inspection of my X9D transmitter with a magnifying glass and to my dismay found nothing really wrong notwithstanding the bits already noted. There were 2 locations were the shine on the solder was missing at the points where the pin ends pass through the board. In the same vein at a few ...

thank you Kilrah you clearly have a better handle on the subject than myself, I'm going to remove the bits that have been scorched and solder jumper wires to reconnect the burnt out trace wires. I'll test and if necessary replace the wee bits where the voltage is stepped down. Could someone direct m...

See, Documentation for OpenTX 2.1 and Taranis by Martin Phillips June 2016 #4 How to flash the EU LBT Firmware, at the top of page 3 "Warning this method of flashing can only be undertaken if your transmitter uses the standard battery. If you have replaced the standard NiMH battery with a LiPo ...

The Micro SD Adaptor holds a SD card. each SD card comes inside an adaptor. the tab on the new adaptor is labeled "lock" and possibly prevents prevents the wee card from accidental following out of the adaptor. I mistook it for a write protect tab. I hope this answers your question and tha...

Taranis X9D/eeprom to motherboard damage While upgrading the FW and Companion to a X9D this week I may have destroyed my Controller; The X9D is a B series controller, the FW, Companion, and Bootloader are versions numbered 2.1.9 whereas the Eeprom is v 217.

Is there a policy on numbered lists, like to explain the steps taken, that result in a problem that requires some help from the group. I notice most if not all of the correspondence is in the wrap around format. This is of course much easier to edit. But for some more difficult to follow. Following ...

You are the MAN!

Thank you Mike.

I switched models and the transmitter works without any problems that I can detect. On the face of it everything seems normal. A much less complicated mix for a float plane I might add. I'll get at Reinhard's suggestions after I take Franklyn (standard poddle) for a walk. Jim thanks for persisting w...

BLACK RAT-rev2.eepm I have the throttle under control now! NOW the AIL and ELE sliders no longer respond. During the flight mode sequence, ID0, ID1, & ID2 the AIL and ELE move to there predetermined positions, indicating the servos work. I thought I would attempt to explain the mix in more deta...

I set the safety switch for channel 7 (THR) to |RUD = 0, from -100. With that I retrieved my Throttle variation. At same time I lost all response from the AIL and ELE sliders. What to do!

Object: When the 3 position switch is in id2 (sw3) the lower half of the throttle slider is dedicated to air brakes (flaps ch 2 &3 down) Ailerons ch1 & 4 up and the Elev ch 5 down slightly because of the flareup. When the slider passes the midway point the throttle cuts in and by the time yo...

Attached eepe file has the latest model programming in it.
Thanks again for your time.

The only throttle response I'm getting is when the rudder switch is on. Then the motor goes to the wide open position. The bar on the 1st screen in the channel 7 position indicates the rudder switch is off. When rudder switch is on the bar moves 2 mm to the right side of the centre line. Now if the ...

Yes the Rud is reversed. off=1 on=0
suppose I should reverse the wiring at the switch?

Thank you, by downloading the er9x firmware I was able to correct the problem with the AIL and THR warning lights. I now have a problem with a repetitive beep that is quite annoying. I think I've turned everything that is related to a warning beep off. I going to read the er9x manual again to see if...

The display indicates the throttle switch is on and AIL. Thoughout the screen displays both of these switches are highlighted to indicate they are on. On the second screen the shows 2 rows of numeric having 4 separate numbers each. They are suppose show the numerical extent of each stick. In my the ...

Thank you I'll check this out

I'll follow this up, thank you

I'm a little behind the times and wont'd be ready for the FrSky TX. I presently have the DHT diy c/w the osd displayed on the LCD-02.

I now have the FAS-40, without taking the shrink wrap off it looks identical to the FAS-100. I have the telemetry displaying on the FLD-02 and not to the TGy 9x. There isn't provision to have FAS-40 to work with the osd, (shortage of sockets on the RX and V2 Hub). Can one simply make up a couple of ...

The connection to the diy module is not different from the plug in module. You will just plug the wire into the 4 pins on the side. You cannot connect the display screen and the telemetrez at the same time, the serial protocol doesn't allow for this. -Gohst Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk 2 Tha...

Thanks Gohst for your quick reply. Yes I'm familiar with this document and to be able to do this would be the first goal. I already use the revised 9x firmware and have 2 models flying at are controlled by specific programs that I copied from Richards video #4. The the TelemetrEZ was designed for th...

I have TGY 9X with a Smartiepart USB board, and the Frsky DHT diy osd system connected to the FLD-02 screen. Now I have a TelemetrEZ that I would like to connect to the DHT, so that I can set some osd alarms. I ordered a sound card from emartee for voice over alarms via an ear phone jack. With a lit...
