Post by Malc »

I have updated my open tx companion firmware to version 2.1.3 eepr 217 and the bootloader that was on my Taranis has vanished!
Can anyone help?

That can't be true, the radio would not start without it. Disconnect USB cable before powering up with the trims held.

I did not have the USB cable connected when I switched on . I pressed the lower trim levers inwards while switching on the tx. On starting up the Tranis main screen is displayed
Is it possible there is a problem with one or both of the trim levers, but the trims work ok! when you are flying!

Try reflashing the bootloader. Copy fimware to the SD card (file name length must be less than 32 characters with dot and extension included), turn on the radio, go to the SD browser, navigate to the bin file and select flash bootloader.
