Taranis problems.

Post by wraith0078 »

Okay, I'm sure I've made some sort of noob mistake, but I've got an FT Arrow with a brand new D4R-II in it. Setup a new model as a flying wing with elevons. The mix is in there with Elevator and Aileron mixed 50/50 on channels 2 and 3, which are what I set for the right wing and left wing, respectively.
  • Throttle works fine.
  • Only the servo plugged into channel 2 works.
  • I have the ESC on channel 1.
  • If I switch the servos for the elevons between channels 2 and 3, then the other one starts working on channel 2 and the one on channel 3 stops. So both servos are good.
  • I've got another RX, so I plugged it in and bound it to the TX for the same model. The behavior travels to the other receiver as well, so either I'm very unlucky and got two receivers with the exact same issue, or there's nothing wrong with either of them. Pretty sure there's nothing wrong.
  • RF mode is set to D8.
  • Channel range is 1-8.
What did I miss?

If you are using CompanionTX then what is happening in the simulator?

If you are not using CompanionTX, then why not?

I have resolved hundreds of little tweaks way before anything every made its way to my planes and helis using the simulator finctioning. Can't beat the price!

Your solution may be quite simple, but the potential solutions can be wide and varied.

Oh jeeze. I'm an idiot. Had the servo plugged into channel 3 backwards. I assumed all four channels were oriented the same direction.

Like I said, noob mistake.
