Issues resolved 1. the plane set up Servo's 5 DS821 diitals 1 HXT 900 gram ( throttle ) Batt 4.8v ni mh 1600 mah RX AR 7000 Tx DX7
2. There is no quick reset installed ( I have been told that spectrum install this for free, I just have to send the rx back )
3. No rebind after plane set up eg. reversed throttle servo after binding
This resolves a lot of questions the set up of the plane and radio was incorrect, which turns out to be an expensive lesson on my part. I will also change the on board batt to 6v amybe 2600mah.
I have had the DX7 about 6 months now and love the tx and it's programing. I have 6 Ar 7000 rx and 1 AR 6000. All will be going on the bench to recheck set up. I have noticed that the lattter purchased RX units have the quick connect insralled. eg when radio and plane both on then radio switched off, then the radio turned back on the rx lights start flashing. This all happens in about two seconds.
Cheers for the input guys
Well done basman - glad you worked it out. Try going to the new Sanyo Eneloop batteries - 6V 2000mha. There are pre wired for JR / Spektrum receivers and have an excellant reputation. They should be available from most good hobby shops. I've been using these in my AR7200, 6200 and new 500 Spektrum rx for a while now with no issues. Live and learn by mistakes - now go fly and have fun while all the soothsayers climb back into their trees.
