PowerExpander EQ10 will not servo adjust
Hi,
I'm setting up a comp-arf 2.3m
2x servo on rudder, 1xservo on all other surfaces.
Using the EQ10, Power comes from a turbo reg and 2x2s Lipos.
The unit will reset in the options menu.
However when using the servo adjust menu nothing will work.
I have used a few of these units before, so i am familiar with how they work, but maybe i am missing something.
Not all of the servos are plugged in yet, but i don't think this will make any difference.
When i select "adjust servo A" function 1, and CH3 (Rudder servo), the LED goes out and the adjust bottons do not work.
Same for the throtle sevro when i try the same. (can't reverse this ch either)
(The LEDs flash as they should when doing the reset, and they come on as they should when the unit is powered up)
The reciever is bound, and they work with the radio as they should, i just can't adjust them.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi,
If the LEDs go out it indicates the unit does not see the receiver. If the unit can enter the Options menu and perform the functions in it then it should do the servo adjustments. The unit is either going to work or not work. Please check your receiver, try to find out why the Eq10 is not seeing it. Do the servos work in "Run"?

The unit works in run mode, the reciever binds ok, and the servos move as they should when i move the sticks on the transmitter.
I'll try re-binding the reciever.

I re-bound the reciever an no change.
The LED flashes untill a function is selected, then it goes out.
The servo adjust doesn't work. like before.

Hi,
This makes no sense to me so I would really like to look at it. We can send you a replacement. Please mail that unit back to us. Please contact me at [email protected] with all your information, address, phone, etc. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best service i've ever had in the RC hobby.
I recieved the new unit in the mail today.
Fitted it, and everything works.[sm=thumbup.gif]
I'll send the other unit back so you can see what happened.
Thanks

Hi,
I don't think so, my tech does all the incoming paper work. I will ask him Tuesday. He usually asks me what I want to do when something like this is returned and he has not.

Sorry about this, i have no idea why it's not there yet.
I have the reciept and registered number, but it's not coming up when i try and track it.
I will contact them directly tomorrow and try and find out what is happening.
