Default 14MZ RF Module not connected

Hi,

I have an odd problem with my 14MZ. On the first boot up of the day i get the message "RF module is not attached turn off the power switch attach the RF module" If i turn off the radio and turn it on again everything is fine no problems, for the rest of my flying session. I have even been careful not to bump, wiggle the RF module. It all appears to be connected properly, pins look good etc. I have updated the software in case there was a bug, unfortunately to no avail.

Any ideas?

Many thanks for your help

Regards

Chris

It sounds like you have something physically wrong. Try removing and reseating the module. Otherwise, you may have something physically wrong...a bad pin, a bad solder joint, a bad connector inside the module, and so forth.

Hi,

I have tried before to reset the module. No good.
If it were a bad joint i would have thought the fault would be repeatable. But the fault only happens on the first start up of the day.
Thanks for your thoughts, as it gives me something to look at

Regards

Chris
