Hi I want to set up an alarm when my model reaches a specific height,a one off once only per flight any one know how I can do this? I would expect it to be done using logic switch Ihave an altimeter fitted and use it in a silent mode but just need to know when I reach a specific height Any help or s...

Thanks Kilrah
I will do that seems a shame that so much information is collected by the Altis and not transmitted to the TX

Hi
Any one using an Altis V4 plus with Frsky?
I am using one and can only get altitude readings ,i would have expected to get other information from the Altis temp voltage etc
interested to know if others are getting the same results
Many Thanks

Hi I am having problems with a particular model getting both Expo and dual rates to work I have programmed gliders in the recent past and not had a problem.I am aware that the ideal place to do this is on the Inputs section,I have tried that and get no response on a switch allocated to the changes I...

Hi Try this in logic switch page L1 a>x LS -85 L2 Sticky L1 Switch SA (forward) All other fields are left un touched on special functions page L2 background music (your recorded track here) This works for me,moving LS will start your recorded track and moving switch SA forward will stop it Hope it h...

Hi Kilrah Thought that was the case ,thanks for the confirmation strange thing is I get a very fast oscillation around the centre point of the 2 bluebird digital servos on the odd occasion,it can be promoted by just a slight knock to the control surface if I just hold the surface still on the centra...

Hi A simple question ( I hope) There is a warning in the manual for the D8R-11 receiver about HS mode being only for high speed digital servos, I understand that My question is can you mix digital and analogue servos in the FS mode ?or are all digital servos high speed? The manual says that to use H...

Hi Boomerwing As you say it all makes sense in companion I have linked the flaps to the ailerons now so they have become flaperons in the minimum sink (thermal) mode and need to fly the model to see what improvement that gives before making any more changes I think the next change will be to include...

Hi boomerwing Thank you for taking the time to look at my eepo and I welcome you advice As you can see from the date of posting this has I have been waiting for a reply for some time ,because of this I have done a total rebuild of the eepo for this model What i was attempting to do was get 3 differe...

Thanks Mike
Looks like that could be the answer and it sounds like I will not use the X8R but stick to D8 series.I am not a computer expert and dont want to risk getting the TX firmware etc in a knot
I think a lot of users will take the same choice
Thanks for the advice

Has there been a problem with the on/off switch?
Thanks again guys

Hi Jhsa

Hi I have just come to use my Taranis and it seemed like the battery was flat I:E the screen did not light up I just got the voice saying the beginning of the word welcome "Wel" js all I got, when I pushed the switch to the off position the screen came on and showed the message "shutt...

Hi
Is it possible to give instructions how to convert this eepro to mode 1
It is exactly what I am looking for BUT I fly mode one RETA
Your help would be much appreciated
Bruce

Thanks Deadalus66
I will look closer and hopefully increase my understanding of OPENTX
Thanks to both of you for your input
Bruce

Thank you Helle for you input. The model(Sprite) was flying well on the set up in my eepe file and unfortunately the changes you have made to the file will make it un flyable the servos were set up to compensate for ATM movement and centres were adjusted to compensate for an offset of mechanical lin...

Hi
I have just been to the frsky website and downloaded the latest firmware for companion but could not see a way to get into it to look for the FAI choice.It just downloads as a zip file?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Many thanks Bruce

Hi Mike Thanks for the advice Fixed the problem with the telemetry from the X8R.The manual that comes with it instructs you to use a link when binding in D16 ,binding without the link cured the problem I am still searching for the FAI switch bit ,I use opentx companion for Taranis and can find no re...
