Ok, maybe someone can help me out. I just got around to my firmware update, module update and receiver updates as I intend to start using my telemetry on my A9 system this year. So everything was going fine...got the Tx to 1.7, the module to 2.0 and my (3) 7 channel Rx's to 2.0. My problem came with my (2) 9 channel receivers - I power them up with everything just like my 7's, it just sits there with the red light on the receiver saying to check connections and won't get to where you select the update version. I tried several times, following the same steps that successfully updated my 7 channel RX's. Not real sure what's up? If this has been addressed previously, kindly fire me a link....I looked but I didn't see anything quite like my issue. Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.

then please refer to: "A small amount of the 9's won't update for whatever reason."You only need to update it if you plan to use the add on telemetry though, the built in battery telemetry will still work fine without the update. You'll need to contact the service deptartment and we'll figure out the best way to get you taken care of if you need it updated. - Mike."
