In 17th century, France had its famous 3 Muskerteer. In 21st century, the US shall have its infamous 3 Masternerds.GyroGearloose wrote: Oh really?

Maybe at some point we should do a little ER9X gathering ("Gathering of the Nerds... there can be only 3"...). Never underestimate the inanity of nerds in modest groups, or something like that...

IF I do the led and FET mod and do the 1K mod on the Tx, can I still swap out the RF module with a DSM or other module and still have the trainer/simulator function in the future. or I'd be better off do the 1K mod on the stock RF module for later use of other module and keep the trainer/sim function with other module? I saw a 1K mod inside the RF module instead in the Tx. like this:ShowMaster wrote: Do I need to do both to use the trainer function with the HK BL, or one or the other would be enough?
Do the led board fix for sure, do the FET mod for er9x control, do the 1 K ppm resistor mod if your staying with the stick modules.
There's one more mod if you plan to use any other tx as a trainer slave that has to be done but it's much more involved. The 9x wants to see a 5volt pulse train to drive the trainer jack. Most all other TX'x, jr, Futaba, ect. Put out 1.5-3v pulses and can't drive the 9x. There is a 1 transistor level converter mod you can build and install in your 9x that fixes it si any tx will work.
It does require you to cut fine circuit traces on your 9x main board and solder this onto the cut traces. It's worthwhile, but you have to be good at soldering.

My intent is to mod the Tx, so I can use with any module with a swap of the module and keep trainer/sim function with whatever module to be used. this guy seems came out with a good swappable module/antenna mod:
