RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

It could be a faulty Rx, check all the program parameters and disable all the mixes to be sure. Active mixes
may be messing things up.

Check the STICK / MODEL type is set to MODEL 2

Check...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

Hi Rod,

I'm not real clear on your stick and controls dilemma.

The layout of what controls are on what stick is what is generally referred to as the MODE you fly.

Typically, Americans...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

The Tx needs to be connected and turned on to choose a com port.

I read somewhere that the PC doesn't even need a true com port for the T6config program to work.

I was under the impression...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

There is another inexpensive radio made by the same company, it's only 4 channels and it is not programmable.
That 4ch radio is only a few dollars less money, so hardly worth the saving when this...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

The standard tail rotor should be sufficient, I suspect your headspeed is too low to give the tail rotor enough rpm to be effective,
I am assuming the heli in question is belt driven. This means...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

The theoretical range "should" be the same with one receiver, but one antenna can be "blocked" by object interference as the signal is more or less line of sight. The antenna would need to be...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

I did set up a couple of small helis with the T6 radio, Twister CP Gold and a Walkera 60. The radio is suitable.

I haven't flown the helis for quite some time, so I'm a little vague on...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

You can use only the main receiver, just unplug the satellite Rx but be aware that the redundancy and reception will be compromised. The case from the Rx could be removed to save weight, maybe...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

The light should be green on the Tx, red is critical low voltage.

OMG!

It must be "tree week".

I was flying at the local beach here with my Cessna foamy, doing some dune surfing and aerobatics, tall gum trees in the dunes.

Half an hour later, (great...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

Yeah, but we are still fiddling with VR knobs that way. I've never had better Tx's in the past with switches for Gear and Flaps etc, so I don't know how they are/were set up traditionally either, I...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

Hi Fred,

I haven't figured it out myself, it may not be possible and I've been doing exactly what you do and use a VR knob.
This is advantageous for high performance gliders where a variable...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

My two Turborix Tx's didn't behave like that fortunately.
I've got several receivers bound to different models and
I did not ever discover this, even after accidently switching

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

Hi renns_99,

Interesting post.

It suggests your Tx's "default" to the same code?

Something for us to be wary of.

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

What vendor? You could get one in the other mode and swap the spring over to the other stick. The software make it easy to switch modes :P

Cable fault? You are using a cable right? XD

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

Not quite sure what's wrong there.
If you can see your stick movements in the program, then your settings are being read by it.
There is nothing visible to save, you type in a filename and set...

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

"Open" is for loading a previously saved configuration file.

When you see the stick movement in the program, that means the program "sees" the Tx. The Tx saves it's settings in real time as you...

Hiya Dart!

RE: Turborix 2.4 Ghz 6 Channel radio

That could come in handy, releasing the Tx ina sim to deploy gear or flaps by keyboard can be a pain.
