Status: offline 		I had the zyx connected to my Blade 400 and it initialized ok and went into heading lock mode (red light on steady).  I connected the USB adapter to my PC and the ZYX. After making a few adjustments with the FBL software, the ZYX stopped initializing. ie: it just sits there with all three lights on steady. I turned the power off several times, but when it powers on all it does is light the three LEDs continuously. The manual says that means it is waiting for the receiver signal but the receiver is working because I can start the motor. if I plug the servos back into the receiver, they work fine which is proof the receiver is working okay.  

The problem is that when it is in this mode (wait for the receiver signal), the FBL program doesn't connect to it so I can no longer do anything with it. Does that mean I have a new ZYX that worked about 4 times and just quit? Is there some sort of reset that can be done? 


I am really stuck here.

Status: offline 		Well now I dont feel so bad I went through this a months ago. Even bought a new one. Well that little "Set" button was all I needed. But I had a Gyro just sitting there for no reason. So that was a good excuse to buy a tarrot 450.
