If not mistaken had updated the Rex 12 few months ago, unless there is another update.

i don't see why not. unless they are programmable servos. i know it's a real pain to have to take the receivers out just to update them .

Hi,

I´m trying to setup a twin turbine telemetry setup in my ds-24. It´s the Jetcat adapter. The tx can´t read booth adapter at the same time. Only one of them no matter in what rx I plug it. I tried booth on same rx with a Y harness or in different rx ports as well. No success. Has anyone made this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Not familiar with your device, but you may want to google CTU from Digitech which can do 4 motor on ExBus as well, seen in the device folder....I have been using it with success.

As Daniel write, look at the CTU!
4 of these will even do quad setup (yes, 4 engines!)

Twin LUA Digitech CTU
if im not mistaking, the jetcat can not be set as a master and slave.
therefor only using one at a time.
the Digitech CTU can be set as a master and up to another 3 slaves , and has multiple EX ports for expansion.
we just made the twin LUA for customers , and tested by the little jet company for their SeaDart project with 2 x P-300.

A small demo of the system, a "few" modules connected together (PS: the CTU is delivered in a super nice milled box, the setup on the video was just done at the lab here )

Hi Guys,

Running into some problems with the 900 MHz backup Rx. Using a single Rex 12 with 900 backup.
Rex 12 is connected to port E1 and selected PPM input and 900 connected to port E2 PPM output.
problem is when I select disable all transmission except 900 in the Tx it will switch to backup and 1 elevator servo won’t work. Rest all surfaces work fine on the backup 900.
Anyone seen this before or knows what I can try next.

Thanks
Chatty.

Hi .. what channel numbers are the two elevs connected to? not sure you can get all 24 chans with this scheme but the latest REX RX sw update lets this work in EX bus not PPM which should be better in any case...

Upgrafe your REX12 to.version 1.12.. then select Exbus/ Reciver backup for port E1.. (not Exbus). Then upgrade R900 to 1.12 (R900 is a REX reciver) select Exbus for port E1 (or E2) then connect that port to your Rex12 port E1... cycle power and retest

Will try this and get back, downloaded the Jeti studio V 1.1.1 and the Rx will not show up on the computer in the device update. Earlier version would show up instantly. Tried it on other Rex Rx as well, same problem on a Mac and PC.
any new tricks here?🙂

Thanks

Let your Jeti Studio download new firmwares (internet connection) before attempting to upgrade

Hi Chatty,

I may know the problem.

Go to Device Explorer => RSat900 => General Settings and increase the number of channels.

Hello DS24 owners,
I am a new DS24 owner and am struggling to get it set up as I am spoiled with the ever user friendly Futaba radios which I have been using for a very very long time. I bought this DS24 (arrived last week) mainly because of the dual frequency transmission signal feature which gives an extra bit of safety when I start my new hobby in turbine jets as I am flying gas giant planes for a long time now & have decided to try the 3d turbine jets.
So back to my problem with the DS24.
My question is whether the DS24 allows me to add additional “select options” to the FREE MIXES function. This is because I want to mix for example,
Mix 1 - Elevator1 to Elevator2
Mix 2 - Aileron1 to Aileron2
Mix 3 - Rudder1 to Rudder2 to Rudder3.
I have no problem creating these mixes in my Futaba radios as the options to select are plentiful. I wonder why the DS24 has only the limited basic functions like Ailerons, Elevator, Rudder, Throttle, Butterfly to select from. Am I missing something in order to get more options to select and if addtional options can be created, I thank you in advance to disclose the setting to me.
Thank you all.

You should look into free mixes menu. Don´t you worry that your Ds-24 can make anything that your Futaba radios can. If you need something on your TX that a Ds-24 can´t make probably your plane is too complicated to fly and will not be a good flyer.
