Joao, Do know of any LUA scripts for erSky9x on 9xtreme that have been posted? I need to just look at one to understand the programming syntax and commands.

Yes. It does seem odd. Neither of my other wings act this way.

Re: Using FrSky S6R with ersky9x
Setting up a wing seems to be inconsistent. I need help. I have setup two other wings, one with a S6R and the other with S8R. I have a new S8R that is giving me fits. I am obviously doing something wrong. I have used both Sportset and latest FrSky config programs. I have also updated the unit with t...

Re: DIY mega2560 radio with rotary encoder option?
Could you switch to erSky9x? I think that it supports a rotary encoder. I don't use companion anymore so I do not know if it supports it or not.

Re: Taranis X9D+ and X8R lock-out and plane crash
I have an observation with two X8Rs. Both units lost signal (manifest by loss of control) at about 200 meters when making a fairly steep turn from downwind to base. I ordered and changed both antennas from the paddle pcb to Frsky's linear unipolar antennas. The problem was solved. I have since used ...

Re: Dead 9Xtreme
Sounds like Twilight Zone (if you guys are old enough to remember. I will do those mods to all five of my 9xtremes. If it saves one board it is worth it, since the 9Xtreme is no longer available.
Thanks again all.
Mike

Re: Dead 9Xtreme
Hooooooray!!! :D Thanks to Mike, Joao, and Kal(Klause), My 9Xtreme is fixed. The STM processor was the problem. I followed Klause's STM- DeFuse settings: http://openrcforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=126&t=9679#p123655 , and used Mike's DFU file that he attached, http://openrcforums.com/forum/downlo...

Yes, Mike it did display 9xtreme on the screen and the VR did not get hot. So this points to the STM that had a short.

Ok, I found one very hot chip with a label of 662.. So I assume that is the 3.3v regulator. I traced the circuit as best as I could visually and did not find any other hot chip. Where might I look next?

Thinepa, I am not familiar with MAC, but it appears that "voice" is your main directory and the others are subdirectories. All should be in the root directory along with "voice" directory.

I have the newer replacement boards that have a m128 in 4 9xs that also have 9Xtremes. I will run your test latter this morning on all of them and post.

Stormister, Sounds like you are using too much heat. This maybe from too big of a tip or contact for too long.
