10x learning/setup with Tx off?
Hi, I just upgraded from a 662 (great radio btw) to a 10x (airplane). I've got half a dozen or so planes to setup in the new radio (and the learning curve to get past) and am wondering if it's possible to operate the 10x without the transmitter being active. Can I just use code78 and set the radio up as a slave or will that change the way the radio functions (how about just removing the back module)? If I can do this do I need to switch the radio off and plug in a trainer cable? If it isn't possible to learn/program the radio without the Tx operating is it ok to operate it with the antenna removed/collapsed without hurting the radio?
Also, I do have a heli that I fly once a week or so and would love to use my 10x with it. I know JR makes a 10x with firmware thats specifically for heli's but am I correct in thinking that I could still create the mixes necessary to fly my heli with a little work on my part? Thanks in advance.
