Transmitter Not Responding

[RENOV8R]

I have tons of experience with simple 2-3channel surface radio, but these multi-channel aircraft radios are new to me. Here's where I'm at:

TX - Radiolink AT9 with RD9 reciever. These are binded as a servo plugged into channel 3 responds to stick movement

Radio is put into PPM mode and confirmed by the blue LED

enable PPM entered in BaseflightCLI and shows as enabled

3 wire goes from PPM port of reciever to - + and C1 of Naze32

Problem is when I go into reciever tab of Baseflight I see absolutely no response to any stick or switch movement.

So my question is, if my channels are mapped differently on the AT9 than the default AETR1234 on the Naze, would this be the problem or am I missing something else. Just like to have a starting point rather than go on a 3 hour Youtube wild goose chase

Mine did that a few weels ago after I rearranged some stuff. Not sure how it works on baseflight but in librepilot I just re ran the Tx setup wizard and it fixed it

Blue LED on the RX?

I think that RX does either S-Bus or PWM, the smaller one does PPM.

And if you want to use the SBus option I think you need one of these.

Typo, yes changed from red to blue on the reciever

 

[Jackson]

I think it would best to grab some cables and hook up in the standard PWM mode. Do you have an RD6 RX?​

 

[RENOV8R]

After some research I was getting PPM mixed up with S-Bus. I might get an inverter cable but for now I'm going with your suggestion and go with the tried and true PWM mode. Luckily had enough components laying around to make up a breakout cable, new ESC are installed (changed the whole layout of the quad for the third or fourth time LOL). If all goes well, I should be able to do a first flight tomorrow.

Looking good. One good thing about that RX is the very good range, Have seen tests at 4000+ meters. Do make sure you do something with antenna some protection, and away from carbon fiber and props.

There is one thing I don't like.

 

[RENOV8R]

Thanks for the advjce, I've got a plastic part that bolts on to the top plate and stops the battery from moving forward, and has an integrated antenna holder. And yes, I'll be moving the motor wires to the rear and securing them.

A little more organized, transmitter is working perfectly. First flighton Saturday and it wasn't pretty. I have props on rush order
