Ran it on a very rough gasser before without any trouble. Good thing is if there is a problem you can quickly turn the gain down then get to the switch but truthfully never had a problem. Then again i rarely used it. As I said really only have them for high wind days.
Would love to find a stabilizer that has an extra elevator and aileron out. That would be good for a gas engine. I hate Y cables especially on power hungry high torque servos. The elevators are far enough on these big planes as it is.

Are you looking for THREE outputs for each, or have you missed that channel 5 may be set up for AIL2 and channel 6 set up for ELE2?

I am speaking on other stabilizers. Have this one set up on 5 and 6. That's why I want to use it. Most other brands just have one output each unless you go sbus.

Hoping someone can help with my issue.

I'm running 9xr pro ; XJT module & S6R & im not getting any reading from the receiver when running the SXR.bas script from menu.

When i run the SXR script the progress bar at the top does nothing. Wing type & mounting type just display ---

Telemetry seems fine. I am getting an RSSI reading back. I've tried distancing receiver from radio but still no reading. The radio binds to the s6r no issue & is set to external XJT ; RxNum 0 ; Detect telem. select; D16 ; 16 chans

Servos respond as they should & remote self check using the 3 position switch seems to work fine. Blue led displays.

MENU only edit is unticked ; Scrolling is NONE.

XJT & S6R firmware were updated through the 9xr.

- Version: ersky9x-r222
- SXR firmware 2.1.0 FCC
- XJT firmware 2.1.0 FCC
- Protocol XJT
- D16
- 16 Channels

I'd like to avoid buying the STK tool if possible - From what i've read on here i think this is possible with the 9xr pro & S6R running the current ersky9x firmware or am I totally wrong ?

Thanks!
Dave

I ended up buying the STK tool & calibrating the receiver - I've got it all setup & ready for first flight but still unable to get a reading from my 9xr which is annoying as i have to remove it each time to change anything.

I think i read somewhere that i can use sportset with the servos connected - Is that correct or was i just dreaming ?

If anyone happens to read my last few posts - All of my issues were caused by using the wrong firmware for the 9xr pro. I was using ersky9x_rom.bin when i should of been using ersky9xr_rom.bin. I realised it was wrong when my elevator trim was backwards - Found another post on this forum saying to use the correct firmware. So i re flashed it & my trim was fixed so i thought id check the sxr script again & like magic I can now remotely connect & configure the s6r from my 9xr pro!
