Re: FrSky issues

Daedalus

Thanks for the quick reply and helpful advice

I know we can flash updated Ersky firmware to the 9Xtreme but how do you flash firmware to the xjt module and the receiver - perhaps Mike can help?

Re: Upgrade 3 Position Switch Mod 9Xtreme

Hi Steven

Yes it was a simple fix but it would have been the last thing I looked at - I was focusing too deep - thinking of complications like firmware issues

It just needs someone with an open mind and intuition to step in

thanks again - its a good feeling to fix problems

Re: Upgrade 3 Position Switch Mod 9Xtreme

Just a thought... but is it possible that you have file extensions hidden? When you normally look at text files in Windows Explorer, do you see "textfile.txt" or simply "textfile"? If extensions are hidden, and you force it to say "MODEL06.txt" then really the file is ...

Re: Upgrade 3 Position Switch Mod 9Xtreme

Hi Joao

Yes - I have exactly matched the text file name to the model name

I have also tried with the TEXT folder as a subfolder in the MODELS folder with no sucess

I created the text file from the dialogue box in Windows 10, I think this is using Notepad - is this the correct way?

Following your guidance, the log function is working fine and the data loads into Excel to give useful graphs

An added bonus is that the GPS coords can be put into Google to show the flight path - brilliant!

Re: EEpskye model writing

Just noticed a possible anomaly on Eepskye

Input of the expo value can done through the edit mix option or through the expo/dual rate option but the values dont seem to be linked

It seems that the value of expo only works through the expo/dual rate option

any thoughts?

Re: Upgrade 3 Position Switch Mod 9Xtreme

Thanks for the quick reply

Yes I agree the existing switch names are clear and avoid confusion as the basic set up but perhaps a user only change function in the hardware menu is a useful option - just a thought as I think I may get confused when I reassign a few switches

I have another question regarding switch names

I am transfering my flap function from switch ID0 to the rudder switch on the left side of the TX

Is it possible to rename the switches, say from RUD, ELE to A,B,C etc to avoid confusion when setting up various mixes and voice alarms
