Aurora 9 -Dead Trim slider?
Ok,
Ive just picked up a new Hitec Aurora 9 about 1hr ago and have been getting to know my around the menus..etc
One thing i am concerned about is that the throttle trim (right handside stick/vertical - this unit is setup out of the box as mode 1) does not work. All other trim control work fine. The problem trim control doesnt register any movement in either direction.
Is this a hardware issue or is there some programming function ive missed to enable it? (Note: still using the default setting.. havent changed a thing)..
Cheers
Grex

Throttle trim does not work on any known commuterised transmitter unless the throttle stick is below the 50% mark.
Otherwise it could be someone in store has changed the stick mode on screen and not the rest as per:

RE: Aurora 9 -Dead Trim slider?
After I posted the thread I spent a bit more time experimenting and found that if I assigned that stick function to a different channel the trim worked.
So Im happy, if its just software I can work that out.. If it was a hardware issue I wanted to get the unit back to the shop ASAP.. Fortunately everything appears to be working 100%.. Ijust need to learn the software...
Thanks for the suggestions, ill give them a try.
