I just installed a new X16 in a 120" Turbomaster. All channels have a distinct jitter sitting at neutral. I've swapped out servos, Futaba HPS-702 and Savox SV1270TGP. Used three different receivers, even turned off the light above the table. Used 3 different 2S 3800ma LiPo battery packs. Disconnected all servos and extensions one at a time, and had just one servo connected, The jitter remains.

Hi,

I am setting up a new airplane and I will use a Nano receiver.  The one I want to use is currently in another plane.

In the meantime I plan to use a different Nano that I have in my spares to center the servos and set up the pushrods.

Will using two different Nano receivers make any difference in the servo output positions?

Thank you,

Paul

I have gone to the website, ordered a X16 and a LED, and haven't gotten a response. Sent a email to the company and didn't recieve a response. What's the situation on these products?

Sending this post to you first as a starter, wan't to find out whether it is me stuffing up or some changes made in Edge.
Can go back to 2.7 but rather not.

Have been sucessfully binding and flying an RM TX16S with Edge 2.7 and XPS mode across 6 different nanos.
One of my models needs 12 ch, so XPS is the best answer.
Using prior versions of Edge and must confess I didn't range test after upgrading to 2.7 but all seemed good.

Then upgraded to 2.8 nightly 2133d42b and can no longer bind as XPS mode no longer functions. Seems that comms fail to Ext module.

Reverted to PPM 8 Ch in Tx changed JR module to PPM and successfully bound  after resetting the nano, but the range test fails at 45 feet with the button pushed in.  I have tried different nano's and different JR modules.
Flew an old model to test and have a video of intermittent loss of control, but got the model down.

Are there any changes you are aware of, or any suggestions before I go hunting?

Regards for 2023, may it be a better year.

Merry Christmas and happy new year to Jim Drew and family.  I hope 2023 brings you all humor, love and fun.

I used the Telemetry Station 10 years ago to monitor the RSSI as seen by an XPS RFU.

Regrettably I took no notes on how I did it.

How do you do it?

Thank you,

Paul

XPS,

I used an Immersion RC RF meter to measure the power output from two Futaba Tx modules and two JR modules.  Using the same SMA adapters and directly connecting the same meter:

Futaba Tx module #1, 18.5 dBm

Futaba Tx module #2, 20.3 dBm

JR Tx module #1, 18.6 dBm

JR Tx module #2, 18.6 dBm

The ImmersionRC meter has two measurement modes:  Average and Peak.  These values were taken using Peak mode.  In Average mode the meter doesn't even see the signal, so I cannot be sure about the absolute peak output values.  But the relative difference was consistent.

Would there be any issue with reliability using the Futaba module running at a higher relative output compared to the other modules?

Thank you,

Paul

Jim, is it possible to add crossfire compatibility to the X10 with a firmware update?  Express LRS is gaining popularity and I'm looking to pick up a few receivers to experiment with.  The protocol seems to be designed for quads but due to its popularity some are looking to use it in other models.  With some of the most popular Rxs not having PWM outputs it would be nice to combine them with an X10 for a 10 ch Rx.  Yes an crsf to sbus converter can be use but it adds another piece of hardware that would be nice to eliminate

Jim, having problems binding a nano to the FRSKY - I have set it to XJT-D16, 18ms - when I follow procedure, the Tx module with show steady orange and the Nano stays rapid flashing red.  I do not understand what I can be doing wrong:

Power on Nano, add binding plug, solid red, remove binding plug, rapid red flash
Power on the Tx holding the prog button in - when power is fully on, release the prog - LED goes solid orange

Do I need to change a setting on either the Nano or the Tx?

Jim, 

In a new installation I want to use some lengths of the inner tubing from a nylon pushrod as guides for the tips of the RFU antenna.

Will that type of nylon reduce the range of the RFU?

How about a thin plastic coffee stirrer?

And, the small, thinly-spread amount of epoxy to glue the tubes to the wood.

thanks,

Paul
