Re: What else can I upgrade in my radio?

Thank you Mike I will look on Ebay for some of those screws, Lowes or Home Depot near me might have them as well.

Oh and I'm guessing 6BA is a #4 screw?

Re: What else can I upgrade in my radio?

Thanks João I got rid of the hot glue that was in the holes. I was wondering how he added the metal standoffs? I'm guessing he cut the old ones off and screwed the new ones on the back and added some epoxy then maybe used some rubber bands around both to hold it until the epoxy dried? Metal standoff...

Hello there, For the metal standoffs did you just cut the old ones out and epoxy in the metal type? I'd like to get rid of the stripped out plastic ones in mine but not sure the best way to do it. I tried filling them with hot glue and drilling them out a bit but the screws wont hold still. Cleaning...

I am thinking about selling 2 of my modded 9X's but keeping a 3rd and getting a Taranis QX7

João,

In the process of fixing the aileron switch issue, I added 2 more wires on EXT1& Ext2 on the ArduVoice module.
Now I have 2 more three-way switches lol.
Not sure what I'm going to use them for yet but I have them lol.

Is the SD card removed from arduvoice board in order to write new models and voice files or is it written using the arduvoice board? tolisn, You can load the card itself before inserting it in the card reader and you close the radio up. After you close the radio up you can over-right the sound file...

To try to make it clear you are flashing V2, all V2 files are called mbtx, not er9x. ER9xPro822j.zip is the "latest" er9x V1. For V2, go to the first post of this thread and download (currently) mbtx5.zip. Then just flash the to appropriate file@ mbtx-2561.hex if you have a '2561 processo...

Re: er9x V2 = mbtx

The straightforward update is to ER9xPro822j.zip. If you go to the V2 version you will need to also install eepeV2, then read and save the EEPROM from your existing radios. Then you update the firmware to mbtx (er9xV2) and allow the EEPROM to be formatted. FInally read the EEPROM from the radio int...

Re: er9x V2 = mbtx

Hi Mike,

I have two 128 Radios and a 64 Radio.
The two 128's are running:
Version: V1.748-Mike
Date: 30:11:2016
Time: 13:41:21
SVN: er9x-r820

I think the 64 is running the serial Version.

I'm confused should I update the radios to your er9xV2 mbtx5.zip or ER9xPro822j.zip ?

Ok so I made up 2 quick models.
I booted the radio in Bootloader mode, the serial adapter is connected to laptop and using eepe 421 version I can see the models I just created.

I don't see any sounds however.
