  Settings for Taranis X9D
Posted by: j_whitney - 05-10-2021, 11:29 AM - Forum: JR/Taranis/Horus - Replies (15)

I have just installed the JR Tx module into my Taranis, trying to go thru the radio setup.  I have set it to the external module, PPM, and it is asking for the frame rate.  It is showing 22.5ms, 300u.  I assume this is correct?  I have not found this addressed anywhere.

Video Mismatch after AutoMatch

It could be that you are over-driving the surface,  and the hinge line is binding.  What servos are you using where you would need to unplug the slave?

Please note that we are not using RCGroups anymore for support.  Please use our direct support forum here:

Never touched anything after the automatch. Just plugged the slave back in and moved the surface with the aileron stick like normal. Checked for hinge limits and there is no mechanical resistance at all.
Also, wouldn't the match current jump if there was binding? It was perfectly normal throughout.
I didn't need to unplug the slave servo. It said to do that in the instruction manual. The servos are Futaba a700's. They don't have built in failsafe. They free wheel with power and no signal.

  Possible incompatibility with the older 8-Channel XPS receiver and OpenTx and XJT-D16
Posted by: flyingw - 04-11-2021, 03:57 PM - Forum: 8 and 10 channel receivers - Replies (2)

Jim,

I have a perfectly working Nano/X10+v2 setup with a Jumper T12 Pro transmitter running OpenTx 2.3.10 and XPS XJT-J1 firmware v4.4.

I wanted to use the X10+v2 in another plane so I replaced the Nano/X10 with one of my older 8-channel XPS receivers.

I first used the push button method to set the factory defaults in the 8-channel receiver.  Then I verified the country code was #1 for USA.  Then I configured all of the channels for failsafe user-settable.

The 8-channel receiver binded successfully to the transmitter and all of the servos worked, until I noticed some random loss of control on all channels.  I first thought I had the transmitter located too close to the receiver and was swamping the receiver, but that was not the case.  I moved to about ten feet apart and still observed the random loss of control.  With the range check button on the Tx module pressed I could get no more than about one foot of effective range!
 
I tried another older XPS 8-channel receiver with the same loss of control result.

Then I tried the Nano/X10 again and with the same transmitter it worked perfectly.

Then I tried binding the older 8-channel XPS receiver to my Futaba 9C transmitter with its XPS Tx module and it worked perfectly.  That gave me an idea:

I configured the Jumper T12 and XPS-J1 module to use PPM instead of XJT-D16 and it now worked perfectly with the older 8-channel XPS receiver.

So I think there is some incompatibility between the older XPS 8-channel receiver, and OpenTx, XJT-D16, XPS-J1.

What do you think?

Thanks,

Paul

  Can I operate an original XPS 8-Channel receiver without its case?
Posted by: flyingw - 04-11-2021, 05:02 AM - Forum: 8 and 10 channel receivers - Replies (2)

Hi Jim,

I've been flying a foamie that is setup like a miniature bush plane with a four servo wing for flaps and ailerons.

Ch1 = Left aileron
Ch2 = Elevator
Ch3 = Throttle
Ch4 = Rudder
Ch5 = Right Aileron
Ch6 = Left flap
Ch7 = Right flap

Because I needed seven servo outputs I installed a Nano Rx and an X10+(V2) in the plane and all works perfectly.  But now I want the X10 for a different project.

I am thinking about installing instead an original 8-Channel XPS receiver.  With weight at a premium in the little foamie, could I remove the 8-Channel receiver's case and still use it safely?

Thanks,

Paul
