Hi Mike, I asked this question over in the AR9x thread but this might be a better place to ask. I am setting up a Spektrum HP6DSM module with this PCB...http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2624108 I want to keep the module bay for Flysky and mount the Spektrum board internally and connec...

Thanks Mike

Can't wait to try this out. I think I'll have it turn on when I get above a certain throttle position so when the plane is airborne the music will play and when I come in for a landing the music will stop.

We're gonna need a bigger battery

Very Cool!!!

It's on an AR9X board Rev A but Rev B board does it as well. PB1 is EXT2 PB2 is EXT1 PB3 is EXT3 Yes when outside model or radio setup there is no problem but when I enter either of those it triggers but not always. Sometimes when I enter a sub menu sometimes just when I'm in radio/hardware main set...

Mike I have virtual switch (LA) triggering on and off by itself when I am in the L.Switches menu. It's very random, sometimes it doesn't happen, sometimes it happens right away and sometimes it is Sporadic. This will be the TUCANO 35 model. I have noticed this before on another model as well. I will...

Alright, I was making it too complicated. I can use logical switches alone to achieve what I need. The gvars are needed for 3 flap settings with a PB's however what I needed was just a long press for ON and short press for OFF.

But that is not to say we couldn't use more GVAR adjusters.

I know, I actually opted for v series Frsky Rx's so no telemetry on this puppy.

That wouldn't work because it can be moving at a good clip but throttle is at idle. So on landing throttle is idle or nearly so yet I am at landing speed. If the steering rate was tied in it would over steer and could even buckle the nose strut sideways.

On the super low rate steering it tells me I'm in that setting every 8 seconds. Same for the nose lock down. This way I don't leave them there when not needed. Same for ignition off. So for the super low rate steering once it's airborne I hit the button and put it in low rate steering and the audio ...

I'll explain about the nose gear lock down position so you have an idea why I need a push button. The fuselage is too tall to fit under the cover of my pickup truck so it's as low as I can get it in it's cradle. Because of this I need to lift the nose of the plane to deploy the nose wheel. Next I pu...

I will try that. I use two buttons for my flaps, 3 positions. Then I use another one to lock only the nose gear down when I am putting the plane together and now I want to use another one for the third steering rate for take off which barely steers at all since the steering is very sensitive on this...

Thanks Mike, well I figure 5 get used in the example above so if you have 4 momentary switches that could use up 20. Right now I need at least 10 but 20 would give me some toys to play with plus every time I figure out a new use for them even 20 could get used pretty quick. Just maidened this yester...

Mike, Would it be possible to get more GVAR Adjusters? The momentary buttons are so handy. I used up the first 5 with the example above and could really use like 30 or 40 of them :shock: I've said it before and I'll say it a million times...this FW is just sick....I LOVE IT. There is no possible way...

Nope...the trims were wrong if I inverted the channel....that's how this whole thing started. The exact behavior you saw in the video was exactly what happened when I used the stick reverse to correct the stick...the trims were opposite. That's when I just changed the wires. i just decided to invest...

OK...when I wired up the NON amplified gimbal the stick was reversed. I inquired about correcting this and was pointed to the controls menu and reversing the stick. This worked but the trims were incorrect. I then changed the wires and no longer needed to reverse the stick as it was then correct...t...

Here is the video.

Yes João I understand completely. I will make a video tomorrow....there is a problem...screw the main screen...test it with a model. I know how to reverse the stick once you pointed me to it in the manual and I am not confusing it with a channel.

No, what happened Mike was that I replaced the original gimbal with the taranis gimbal with matching the wire colors posted here. The stick needed to be reversed so that it was correct however the trim then became reversed. I then went and swapped the outside wires and the stick direction was then c...

I tested it by looking at the control surfaces to make sure what I was seeing on the screen was in fact not correct when I trimmed the plane. I'll check it again real quick...yup, no doubt. when aileron stick is reversed and then aileron channel is inverted the trim is backwards on both radios. I'll...

I have to invert the channel on certain planes and always when on at least one channel when I use two channels for aileron servos and as well for two elevator servos.

try the aileron mode 2 and see what happens when you invert the channel.

I did exactly what the manual said. "If the stock stick assemblies are replaced with a different type (such as Taranis or Aurora 9 gimbals), one or more stick axes may work in directions opposite to the associated trims. The Stick Reverse function is provided purely to correct this situation. T...

Thanks Bud!, I changed it in the FW and it worked great. OH wait, if I reverse the channel it does reverse the channel however it also reverses the trim....right trim gives the channel left trim when channel is inverted. i'll switch the wires because i know that will cause a problem at some point in...

I replaced the aileron/elevator mode 2 and also have aileron reversed. I'm running the test version FW for the AR9X board. Whats the best way to correct this. I reversed the channel but the trim is still reversed which could do a number on me since I'm ready to maiden a 30cc Edge. These are not ampl...

It's working great and I see how to set up the increments. This is a powerful feature.
