OpenTx 2.2.4 Companion Issues (QX7)

Post by Chuppster »

I recently updated to OpenTx Companion 2.2.4 (with new firmware on my Taranis QX7) and everything worked great. However, it's been a few weeks and now when I go to load the models from my radio I get the error "Can't extract RADIO/radio.bin" I've tried restarting the radio and restarting companion but nothing works. Does anyone have troubleshooting steps so I can use Companion again?

My apologies. I have a Taranis QX7.

Then I guess your radio profile must be set wrong (I'm assuming "load the models from my radio" is actually read model and settings from radio ?)

The "Radio Type" field is set to "FrSky Taranis X7 / X7S".

When I click "Read Models and Settings from Radio" the status bar comes up for second then an error field pops up saying "Can't extract RADIO/radio.bin".

And do you have the radio in bootloader mode?

Yep! I should mention that I've configured with Companion many times but haven't encountered this issue until recently.
