Re: MasterRadio TX16S

Mike, after the screen went black I shined a flashlight on the black screen and could just see the erskytx intro screen. I pressed enter and got switch warnings and what I think was a throttle warning. It is hard to read. This is all while holding the power button down. A power off appeared and when...

Re: MasterRadio TX16S

That worked as you said. The letters in the upper lefthand corner were green on white background and appeared about 4/sec. The last one was E. Then the screen went black. Multiple long presses of the on/off button finally turned it off. Then I can still boot into OpenTx bootloader mode.

Re: MasterRadio TX16S

eepskye = QT5 On bootup it gives a white screen with STARTING then it goes to black. I do not see any hex numbers. It takes three long presses of the on/off switch to get it to turn off. I can still bootup into OpenTx Bootloader - 2.3.9-otx. Should I have flashed a different bootloader before flashi...

Re: MasterRadio TX16S

The same thing happens. Also when I try to flash from the SD card, one first selects the firmware from a list, then a confirmation screen appears with the chosen file. The screen flickers at about 30 Hz and is locked up. A hard reboot is necessary (unplugging the battery) to be able to turn on in bo...

Re: MasterRadio TX16S

Ok, mike, when flashing the test firmware with Companion it flashed very fast (seemed too fast). then when turning the radio on (not in bootloader) it has a white screen with "Hardware Menu Enabled". A hard reboot was necessary again.

Re: MasterRadio TX16S

The Volume name is TX16S. With the SD card flash it had the .bin file and wanted me to long press enter to start the flash. I will redo the Companion flash to remember exactly what it said when I started the radio.

Hopefully someone has done it and can share just how they did it, please. Op...

Thanks torturedau. I received the four boards. This maybe something that I have overlooked. Is there a "map" of where to populate the components? I am in the process of finding everything in the BOM.

Jhsa, that is a great summary for how a beginner should approach any transmitter. It should be an introduction to any variation of OpenTx or Er9x family.

Re: RcGroups in trouble??

Your are correct. I can not gain access with two different browsers or with Tapatalk right now. For at least a year now I have gotten redirected to a pirate site, sometimes 4 or 5 times in a row. Then it would seem to work fine until the next day.

Could you switch to erSky9x? I think that it supports a rotary encoder. I don't use companion anymore so I do not know if it supports it or not.

I have an observation with two X8Rs. Both units lost signal (manifest by loss of control) at about 200 meters when making a fairly steep turn from downwind to base. I ordered and changed both antennas from the paddle pcb to Frsky's linear unipolar antennas. The problem was solved. I have since used ...
