9xr Pro not connecting to PC
I got a used 9xr Pro and when i connect it to the computer it does not show up under my computer. if i set it up in bootloader it does not throw a device drive error but it does not show up either. watched videos on how to install and all of them show it in my computer. when i try to find it to install the firmware on both eepe and opentx it does not register that to transmitter is connected to the computer. i have been scouring the internet with someone with this problem but i have yet to find it i am really frustrated and not sure where to go from here

Welcome to the forum.
Make sure the USB plug is well inserted in the radio. Some need a little push to be fully inserted.. Not too hard that you break it of course

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
turns out i tried it in another usb port and now it works fine
Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
Probably you were trying on an USB3.0 port. That might not work..At least there are some reports pointing in that direction..

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
I don't use OpenTX but you need to use Companion to flash it..I'm sure someone else will help you with that

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
what someone said that with companion, which i am connecting to with my 9xr pro i should be able fro it to flash it for me but i am not sure where to get the firmware for it
Re: RE: Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
I believe you have to use companion to download the firmware.
Don't ask me how to do it

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
Think I figured it out but seems like because I installed the eepe firmware I'm getting an error when I try to install this one. Going to format the SD and see if tht fixes it

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
I'm curious to know why you wish to go to openTx rather than use ersky9x?

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
Mainly because I have heard of opentx since I started looking at quads only just heard of the other one.

Use ErSky9x on 9XR Pro. It was developed to support this transmitter and continues to get close support. It is actively developed.

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
If there's a problem of module compatibility going to OpenTX won't help.

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
Your external protocol settings are for a 'hack' DSM module. Unless you have a module fitted internally, then you don't need anything on PPM2, so this should be off.
Is the ORX module the type that uses the internal antenna? If so, then set the sub-protocol to "9XR-DSM", otherwise, set the protocol to PPM.

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
It's the one with its own antenna the 2.4ghz one. So I need to set protocol to ppm and get rid of second protocol

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
thank you so much on the help, it is working. The 9xr pro is alot more sensistive on the sticks so i have to figure out how i can set it so that the quad is not all over the place when i try to make adjustments in the air midflight. either adjusting pids or adding an expontial on the first 4 channels on the mixer is my guess. I am guessing it is also my RX but seems like only 7 channels are registering. so im not sure about that.
Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
You should not be touching the PIDs, only RC rate and/or expo.

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
Ok did not know only changed my pics once and made flying the quad much better, used a setting someone else was using.
Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
Well you definitely want to change them to get the quad to fly better, but NOT when the goal is to adjust the response to your stick inputs.

Re: 9xr Pro not connecting to PC
Will bad pids cause the quad to veer when trying to hover. I have to adjust the trim alot to get it to stop flying backwards.
