Today i started having some issues with my DS-16, flew landed and shut down. Went to start back up and the Model i had just flown is gone,had to make another model to get gear up, was going to check out another model and got it setup and all was working good. Shut it down then went back in a few and turned on and that model was also gone!! Now it says cannot read model file on the models i had on there. Any ideas?

Thanks

Will wait until they come out with a replacement for the DS-16.

Hi David,
lve tried the two mixes and they seem exactly as in your two pictures, but there is no brake application with the retract switch.
surely I’m missing something? Could you go into a little more detail ?
Q; how does the system know to apply brakes (briefly I know) when the gear is selected UP...there is no connection...
tks,
Leon

Hi David,
ignore my previous message, I didn’t see the 100%’s. All working great now.
tks, Leon

Weird Jeti alarm!
I have a DS 16 in a jet for 4 years with no issues until now. When you turn on the transmitter no alarms. When I turn on the jet I get a repeating alarm "warning capacity" and at top a flashing "alarm C". The batteries test fine and substituting the batteries does not stop the alarm.I have 2 other models with the identical setup (CB200 dual path, 2 R3 Rx, A123 Rx batteries ) on the same transmitter and when I turn those models on no alarms. Having the ECU battery plugged in or not makes no difference. I have never programmed a capacity alarm in the morse code alarms. I was advised to go into the telemetry min max values of the CB200, those numbers appeared OK but I reset the values anyway. The "warning capacity" alarm continues. I have X out all the variables in "sensors and variables" with no effect on alarm.

Very frustrating. Any help would be appreciated.

Call James at Esprit Models. He is very responsive and knowledgeable.

I did speak with James and he has provided guidance to dive deeper into the issue. So strange this alarm popped up out of nowhere on my transmitter after 4 years and wondering if others had seen the same problem

Not transmitter battery. Read out is good and no warning with same transmitter with other models on same transmitter

It sure sounds like it could be an issue with either your CB200 and/or one or both of your R3's.

Is there any way you could swap those components, at least for testing purposes?

Default Jeti Sequencer for the gear and MBAR / setting up FAILSAFE

hello there

requesting assistance from the JETI guru

I have a warbird with pneumatic retracts (2 main and one tailwheel)
and, for the doors, I am using an actuator

I am using two of the Jet-tronic double valves to get the gear and tailwheel up and down

I have programmed the sequencer in

and it has worked


But now, I have ordered, and received an MBAR.

I want to set up a failsafe so that if the pressure gets under 400 kPa, the gear will not go up or, if during flight, the pressure drops to under 400, it makes the wheels come down.

I saw the video from Harry Curzon, and his does not include the sequencer. his failsafe is for only gear without doors/sequencer


this is how he says to do it:


go to

advanced properties
then to telemetry controls

in telemetry controls, add a function and call it "gearfailsa"

then change it to "enabled" and see the check mark
then scroll down and keep it at "Switch"
scroll down and set up the condition X > 400.o +/- O.o kPa
leave duration at NIL
and set default from Nil to 100% then hit OK

exit that page and go back to advanced properties
then go to "LOGICAL SWITCHES"

then add a Logical switch L1, create it and label it "GEARFAIL"
then hit edit and

program it such that :
A) Control 1 is "Mx1"
B) Control 2 is "your actual switch you use to activate the gear up and down"

Condition has to be programmed to : "AND"

then hip OK

then with pressure over 400 kPa, you should see a check mark next to control one and with gear UP, you should see a check at control 2

hit exit

then go to model

functions assignment

and where GEAR is, assign the control to "Logical 1"


however, this does not tie in the sequencer


anyone know what I should do

as it stands, it (the failsafe) does not work


thank you

Change the switch in your sequencer to "L1"

that did it

I had to turn both gear and door to L1 on the sequencer

and also under function assignments, I had to change both gear and door to L1

now it works

amazing

truly amazing

what a great saving mechanism

whoever came up with this is really smart!

I've got a model with a CB200 that is maxed out, but i would like to run a pair of RC controlled ignition switch's. Not wanting to spend the money on a CB400 when i only need one more port, is there any way to use one of the ports on either of the R3 rx's to control the rx switch's?

Its not recommended to use the receivers as they are powered 0.5 volts less than the entire system.. I would use an “SE6” channel expander..

But if you decide to use the R3.. supply it with additional power from one of the output ports of CB200.. no signal wire just power

‘If you have a spare ExBus, I would install a CB100 much safer….split one of the power lead to the CB100 or take 2 servo lead to it for power…good for 8 channels

Thanks guys.. since they are just rx controlled switch's i figured they wouldn't draw to much power to deal with it. I'll have to see what is the better of those two options.

With an extra power lead to the R3 there should be no issue. The extra ports are there so why not use them?
