dx 7 servos hard over on startup
I have a spectrum dx 7 installed in my airplane, it works great except for at start up, a few of the servos go hard over to one side, it makes my choke servo gears skip teeth. I am new to this radio, i didnt see anything in the manual about setting failsafes or that sort of thing, is there anything i can do about this?

Make sure all switches, control sticks etc are where you want them at power-up, and then re-bind. When in doubt, always re-bind!! I hope this helps. let us know if it solves the problem...

He's right! Now that you have the settings set where you want them, re-Bind. When you reverse a servo and that sort of thing, you have to re-bind so the startup settings know that as soon as the radio hooks up.
Re-Bind!

Do you turn the TX on first and then the RX? And you should set the failsafes. Problem is DX7 only has failsafe on throttle. Pretty skimpy for a 7 channel radio.
