Ive put together a 250 size quadcopter im using the naze 32 acro using cppm with a frsky d4r-II reciver. My transmitter is a 9xr pro i accidentally bought a mode 1 tx so i had to convert it to mode 2. Other than that its stock. Ive got the quad to arm and spin up but my pitch and roll are switched so when i input right on the right stick it pitches forward, left it goes back etc. Does anyone know how to switch them back.

Change how you are plugging the Rx into the FCB. You might also be able to switch to mode 2 in the menu.

When looking in the settings menu of your radio do they appear correctly assigned there? FlySky numbering would be Ch 1 for Roll, Ch 2 for pitch.

Although that is correct I think the OP has an FrSky module installed which has different mapping.

I really haven't a clue what you are saying. If you converted from mode 1 to 2 you have to go into the 9RX's menu and change it to mode 2, as was mentioned.

The H107D video Tx and camera are all one piece. I've only seen people take the 107C HD board (if they get lucky and find one w/ video out.. there are like 3 versions) and camera and use that to replace H107D camera/board. In addition to this, they also need to add a vTx for FPV. So to have HD FPV in 107D you need the right 107C HD board/camera and add on an additional vTx. Sounds like a waste, some extra weight, and not very expandable going forward.

My reasons are...

1) As you mentioned, better camera... but with less parts (107C HD video board, camera, and vTx vs camera and vTx)
2) Longer and stronger video transmission range
3) More flexible antenna options
4) Adjustable vTx mw -- battery life vs range
5) Possibly shave a few grams of weight
6) Do a first build for experience w/ cheap parts that are already on hand and don't need to purchase
7) Ability to swap out just the FC board for another Cleanflight brushed option as a phase 2 FPV build.. or even make the whole FPV portion modular to go from frame to frame
8) Maybe remove FPV from this setup at some point and run just a Cleanflight board for crazy acro and tune-ability
9) Why not?

It just gives me sooo many options going forward if you look at it like a phased learning process/build log.

So i should be able to get it corrected by making sure my channels are in the right order and that its set to mode 2 on the 9xr? I dont think its a wiring issue, but ill try to post a pic of it. And is there anything i can do in baseflight configurator?

With PWM it is really simple, just switch the two sticks to have the left one not spring to center, and then plug in the channels as you would a mode 2. With PPM and SBUS you have to adjust the channels in the software/firmware on the FCB, or on the radio

Can i change my wiring to pwm using the same fcb and rx?
Or would it be better to try adjusting channels in the software like you said? Also do i have to use my computer to do 5hat or can i frome the screen on the 9xr?

If you are using a PWM receiver and a flight controller that supports it then yes. PWM is the most common for most things, so your FCB probably supports it, and if you are using a Spektruim Tx then you can get a cheap Orange Rx.

So two questions, what FCB, and what radio are you using?

If you have a KK with stevis I am pretty sure you can change the channels with the channel map tool.
