Manage Horus X12S from Companion 2.2.0

Post by rcyoda »

Is there anyway currently to manage Horus X12S from Companion 2.2.0 ?

I wanted to edit models and upload them to Horus. But when I connect to Horus, no drive is recognized (for Taranis I always see two drives: "firmware" and SD card) and Companion cannot upload anything. I read somewhere that model download / upload was not yet supported on X12S, that for the moment Companion can only upload new OpenTX using STM mode. Is that still the case?

I have also noticed that there is no Bootloader present in Horus. Will it change?

You need to use firmware with the "massstorage" option enabled, then connect USB while radio is on.

Or take the card out and put it in a reader.

But this will give me access to SD card, not to upload models. Right?

Models are on the SD card on Horus, so yes it does.

are the model images also stored in SD card? I see IMAGES directory but inside there isn't a ModelImages subdirectory.

Yes, and there isn't a subdir, they are looked for right in the IMAGES dir.
