I need help with how to best troubleshoot an issue where my Tx is intermittently losing control of models. This has happened with by Frsky and Flysky receivers on at least 3 models. Fortunately for me, I didn't lose any models but I did crash a couple of times b/c of this. It's like it just decides ...

I cannot find a thread on this but When I had my Tarannis QX7, I had it programmed somehow to not delay when powering it on. Pretty sure it has to be done somehow in the source code but I can't for the life of me remember how. I want to do this for my Radiomaster Tx16s. It has a setting in the radio...

See attached. anything I"m missing? Or is this a malfunctioning Bugs 3 board? It binds to my radiomaster. It just does nothing but solid led. Using the bugs protocol. Latest internal multi-module firmware. version 1.3.2.12 AETR

I just got my Frsky S6R receiver setup with one of my planes and I have the FrSky Smart Port Mini Lipo Voltage Sensor plugged into the smart port, balance plug connected to the lipo. But when I try to discover sensors, all I get is RSSI and RxBat. This is supposed to read total and individual cell v...

I want to post a question about the iRange X multiprotocol module but can't seem to find the main forum on this? Basically, I'm wondering how we go about requesting a new protocol to be added to firmware. (Omphobby M2 helicopter uses it's own protocol in the flight controller. Wondering if it's poss...

Figured it out! All I had to do was set the ch 1 mix to a source of Ail and add a 2nd ch1 mix with source of rud. Viola, rudder control on both sticks.

Trying to add the ability to control the night vapor (indoor fly plane) steering rudder on right stick. It's a 3 channel plane so not sure if this can be done? Currently, I have the following setup which works as expected with elevator on the right stick, Rudder on the left and Throttle on the left....

oh, well I guess I will do that then. thanks. didn't realize I was not on the latest version.

Hello, can someone please help me locate where I edit the power shutoff time? I'm using a QX7. Not finding any script files that would appear to have this in it. I have not yet messed with lua script as I'm new to open tx this year. (I know how to use the radio and all, but have not learned yet how ...

Rats! I guess you get what you pay for.

I have this LED light kit installed on my HK Tundra airplane: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Flash-LED-Light-Kit-for-RC-Helicopter-Aircraft-Airplane-8-LED-Lighting-System/202557257662?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D40719%26meid%3Dd364657e7f0e4dadae0fe17ac210a6f9%26pid%3D100675%2...

Yep, I did end up pulling up the settings again and comparing to another when I did realize that one line was in there so I deleted it. All good now. one silly line is all it takes. lol

I'm pulling my hair out trying to decipher what my issue is. I just setup a new model for a Focke Wulf War bird. For some dumb reason beyond my comprehension, My throttle is not working unless I hold the timer reset button in and have it off throttle hold. I have attached the OTX file. The Tundra, t...

Well, I got brave and decided to change the fmode gryo to to 30. Took it up and flipped into fmode 1 and it held! Yay! I didn't try any flips etc yet. want to make sure I got it perfect. Might lower it to 25 and keep going down a little at a time until it starts to tail wag then go up until it's per...

Greetings. I followed the steps in the following open tx university link for setting up my mixes and curves etc for my 470LP: http://open-txu.org/home/special-interests/helicopter/heli-part-2-mixers/ Only thing I did differently, is I put the fmode and gyro switches on the same switch. This way when...

I'm sensing some frustration on your part rdeanchurch. You need to realize this is all brand new to me. There is a forest of forums out there and it's very confusing to me and a challenge for me to know which forum to post what questions to. It's not about believing something you say. I am just igno...

I know how to setup the switches. The problem is I don't have any telemetry slot that reads cell voltage for a single cell. Just the total voltage. How do you add the single cell voltage option? Or is this dependent on the Rx? I"m using a lemon with telemetry which has a voltage sensor connecte...

I want to setup a voltage alarm that tells me when a single cell goes below 3.6 volts. However, the telemetry screen in the QX7 only shows total voltage. Is there any way to setup the alarm to be based on a single cell going below 3.6 volts? I would assume you would need a sensor setup that reads si...

Nevermind. it's working now and now idea why. I plugged in a different lipo and the motor finally kicked on. so I put the other lipo back in and that works now too. no clue what that was about. sheesh!

pulling my hair out trying to decipher why I have no throttle on my plane. It's a standard setup with two ailerons. Everything but throttle is working. Here is what I have tried: 1. another receiver 2. another esc 3. another motor 4. all 3. On the motor mounted to the plane, it's completely dead, no...

crud, that was the only thing I didn't try. lol. thanks!

So far, it appears you can copy/paste the mixes and inputs, but not the SF or LS stuff. If anyone knows of a way, please let me know.

Is there any way to copy just for example the logical switches from one model to another instead of the whole model? For example, I will be using exactly the same logical switches for two planes. Would like to copy all LS from one to the other instead of having to do them all one by one manually. Is...

Per another forum related to the Irange X multi-protocol module with DSMX receivers, the consensus is you need to set the low and critical alarms to 18 and 15 respectively. So I did this on the radio then backed up the settings to companion. I noticed that they came over both as 20. This is a proble...

Having the following issues trying to set logical switches for Telemetry voltage on the Taranis QX7, and RSSI: 1. I followed the steps in this link: https://oscarliang.com/setup-taranis-read-out-voltage/ But after adding the attached settings, I'm still getting the 0 voltage audio when turning on my...

Now that I have one configured, it will be easy enough to just copy that one to use for my other DSMX models. Only got a few. I plan on buying some FrSky receivers going forward for any new models. It's working perfectly using the attached updated mix which I believe is what you were referring to an...

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for the information. Good to know. I'm just ready to celebrate a victory of getting my first plane working correctly with the QX7 and the module. LOL. I think me and this new Tx are gonna get along just fine. I love the endless possibilities this setup brings, even if I ...

Bingo! I got my mix updated per the attached and it's working now! So basically in the mix, the first value should match the 'actual' channel order of the Rx which is TAER, but the 2nd part/column needs to show the order that the I-range apparently likes which is AETR. Very strange but Now I can jus...

So I tried the above and the throttle is now both on the left (correct) stick AND also still on the right stick from middle to high, but no elevator at all. So I'm closer but man this is confusing. Please let me know if I missed something in the above screenshot as that is the current mix I have. My...

see attached. is this what you mean?
