We told many people get the DS-16 now, price can go only up. If the Euro goes up the price will increase, and we all know that it will. If you keep your radio is good shape you can sell it for whatever you bought it. The Receivers, Sensors, Switeches............ will stay with you.

Realistically yes, I do not expect anything before Christmas. The DC-24 will be first, the DS-24 will follow.

The 5 buttons directly under the display should be labeled Centr, Prop., Rev., Clr, Ok, while in the Select Input Control Menu. You get to the Select Input Control Menu by scrolling to a switch field and then clicking on it in menus such as Free Mix or Function Assignment, that have switches associated with them.
The Advanced Properties, Sticks/Switches Setup menu is also used to assign control functions, such elevator, rudder etc, the the appropriate control stick and also to assign trip points, where they will be considered On/Off, etc. For example, if you want to use your throttle stick being advanced above 25% to start a timer (or whatever), you would go to Sticks/Switches setup and select P3 (throttle for mode 2) and adjust the "Switch On" and "Switch Off" fields to select where you want it to turn on/off when used as a switch to control timers, etc.
Hope this helps.

I'm using Sd (3 pos sw) to activate my Cortex gyro. I need the gyro to be OFF when the sw is selected fully away from me, then -50% in the middle position, and +50% when fully towards me. After going into Function Assignment I've managed to have OFF, then -25% and -50% using the 5 buttons.
I don't know how to change the software to give me -50% and +50% in the middle and second pos.
cheers,

Leon,
Go to function assignments. Then go to your 'Gyro function', select which switch activates the gyro (SD), when you select that switch, the menu underneath the LCD display gives you all of the options (centr,prop,rev etc).
Select how you want the switch to behave, ie: -100,0,+100.
Then to fine tune your gyro settings, go to the gyro, under fine tuning......
And simply put your rates in there. ie: select far left field and dial in the percentage you want. Done.
Cheers,
Mort

Thanks again Wayne. I do not show that 5 buttons (but NOT in the Sticks/Switches Setup menu)...I did find the 5 under "Free Mix or Function Assignments".If I explain my problem then perhaps you can help me out.

Next go to Fine Tuning, Gyro settings, which should be available if you set "Use Gyro 1" to "Yes". In Gyro settings, select the switch position you want the gyro to be "off" and dial in a gain of 0, Next select the center switch position and dial in the desired gain (+50%), Final select the third switch position and dial in your -50% value.
If you want to be able to adgust the gain for the active switch positions, select one of the knobs in the tuning field and assign a percentage in the gyro sense field. By selecting the proper values, you can have knob p8, adjust the gain for the Cortex normal mode from 0 to assigned gain value and p7 do the same for the hold mode..

The CB400 really does exist at last! I am now the owner of a CB400, got it yesterday, it is going in my English Electric Lightning to replace the Weatronic unit currently in there.

For the gyro function all you really need is 3 unique switch positions. You can assign switch SD in Function Assignment and usiing values of 100/0/-100 should be fine.
Next go to Fine Tuning, Gyro settings, which should be available if you set "Use Gyro 1" to "Yes". In Gyro settings, select the switch position you want the gyro to be "off" and dial in a gain of 0, Next select the center switch position and dial in the desired gain (+50%), Final select the third switch position and dial in your -50% value.
If you want to be able to adgust the gain for the active switch positions, select one of the knobs in the tuning field and assign a percentage in the gyro sense field. By selecting the proper values, you can have knob p8, adjust the gain for the Cortex normal mode from 0 to assigned gain value and p7 do the same for the hold mode..

This so cool Central Box 400 is working in series with Central Box 100. Now we can have multiple small CB100 in the Wings or Tail and connect them with single power and signal lead, the rest of the model can be operated from CB400. Different Voltage Outputs, Redundancy, Power Consumption, Servo Pin Protections all built in one box.
With Jeti system you can mix anything with anything, you can set up different output voltages, different servo assignments and tons of other stuff directly from Transmitter. All devices are connected via EX Bus and they all do communicate wirelessly.

I have just done that for real on a Paritech DG303 Glider. It is destined to have a turbine on its back in due course. Everything is clearly visible, and is easily set up in Device Explorer. Works like a charm.

Bobneal1... I have my gyro gain adjusted on speed only during "cruise mode". Take off and landing have a fixed gain. It works perfect. Let me know if you are not able to achieve what you like I will post pictures of my telemetry control screen and gyro screen..

Crashed the first plane I used my new jeti TX in yesterday. Had new fully charged A123 battery for RX power. Flew fine for the first couple of minutes, then started getting a little twitchy. Decided to set up to land, as I knew something was wrong. In the downwind leg of approach, my plane just went into a roll, complete loss of control. After hitting the ground I got the signal loss alarm on my TX. Not too happy about this.

Bob... Im at work and don't have the transmitter with me (which I should 
).. Jeti has a very nice Gyro menu so you don't have to mix the gyro gain channel. Once you are in the gyro menu in the left column you set the gain and in the right hand column you have "Tuning" once under the Tuning column set the MX (telemetry control switch) as the switch and toi the right the percentage of tuning you like...
Thats it...
Enjoy..

... give us more info and possibly the log file of that flight so we can see what happened... what setup you had CB200 or Receiver??David..

Select your MX controol in tuning and in the gyros sense field, select a negative value.
I don't have an airspeed sensor handy but tried it with a knob and if you watch the value in "()", the gain increases when the tuning control increases if the gyro sense is positive and the gain decreases as the tuning control increases if the gyro sense is negative..
Hope this helps

It just seemed as the flight went on, the control was becoming less and less positive. Like it was pixilated if you can imagine that. It just slowly got worse. I knew I had to get down, but did not soon enough before I lost control. The signal loss alarm was when the batt unplugged on impact.
I do not know how to check the log to find out what the event was. Never had a brand new radio fail me like this. Good thing I did not put it in one of my big scale warbirds.
Needless to say, I do not trust it, and will most like be selling. My experience has not been good over all.

Ouch. Did you happen to load test the battery? You mentioned it was new too. Sure sounds like the battery power was running down.
Here is a link on the JetI log file. It's down a page or two. http://file.espritmodel.com/firmware...seNotes_EN.pdf
Also, a screen shot on how to check the log file. It will tell the receiver voltage which will be helpful
