    Taranis axis travel issue

    Yea I did that a couple of times but thanks, it turned out to be the trim settings, I thought maybe it was the ESC calibration. Its very sensitive on the sticks which I need to look at but its hovering nice now. The new problem is the FPV camera isnt working via the FC but it works on its own...

    Taranis axis travel issue

    ok I thought id elaborate on this, the problem is im aching to do my first ever maiden of a racing quad but when I apply a little power the motors spin really fast, im guessing if I put props on it will go into orbit at just 1% throttle, ive tried lowering the minimum throttle settings in...

    Taranis axis travel issue

    Im probably having a thick moment but I cant find any info to fix something so simple. The problem is im getting the full 100% range of travel from the sticks but when I go into my models mixer settings the graphic is showing that im only getting 50% travel on all axis's. Cleanflight shows im...

    Help with frsky xsr receiver and Skyline32+OSD

    You mean to short the boot pins? I actually find them to be too big for the job, I use a bit of rolled up foil, as long as you put a bit of solder on the pads first it never fails. In fact I think not applying solder first probably causes a corrupt flash. Ive got as far as getting to motors...

    Help with frsky xsr receiver and Skyline32+OSD

    Ive discovered the RX has an issue where you need to apply pressure to it for it to work, actually pushing on the chips on the board makes cleanflight notice it. also touching both antennas makes it work, basically it works when you handle it but not when you let go if it.

    Ive found the issue, the pins inside the RX connector are a bad contact, when I push the wires in it works, the sliders move in cleanflight now.

    Help with frsky xsr receiver and Skyline32+OSD

    No, I thought about trying that but I figured it was ok because it says "telemetry lost" when I turn the TX off. I will try binding again. Just watching a video here some guy talking about firmware conflicts between TX and RX, something about internetional and EU conflict, sadly he didnt...
