Default JR AXIS XBus gyro

Anyone flying this thing? Comments. Just got a JR XG 14 and was looking to change to this to keep jet all JR. Will be using 2 731BX Rx's (redundant Rx's) with telemetry and the 14 port duo redundant bus pwm converter on my FB Dolphin. I have had no major problems with my DX18 Stealth but the stories of them just quitting really scares me.

I am going about it a little differently. I will be using the pwm ports on the main receiver that I need,then coming out of the axis xbus for flight surfaces using the [h=1]XBUS XB2-CHB HEAVY DUTY DUAL REDUNDANT X BUS CENTER HUB [/h]

Don't get me lying, but I think the JR axis will not work through the DUO.

I have several planes set up with AXIS gyros now and they are great. The AXIS takes control of the surface channels and outputs either through the PWM ports or the XBUS out. It only supports digital servos unless you use a CV harness. You would have to plug the axis into the XBUS out port on the DUO. The AXIS does not have single channel inputs, only XBUS for input. If you are looking for high current support for the surface servos, the DUO is not going to do it without some creative wiring. You could use the XB1-PC4 and plug the deans connector into the high power output of the DUO and plug the xbus connector into the output of the AXIS. Or just a PH4 harness if you plan to use XBUS servos.

I think the AXIS would work if you put it between the 731 Xbus out and the DUO Xbus in. I might not be able to use redundant RXs in this set up. If so I will use my Cortex after the DUO as per normal setup.
