Futaba RC setup and calibration

Posted by Tim V on January 20, 2015 at 8:46pm

Presently have Pixhawk installed in frame, and have Futaba 10J radio with the R3008SB receiver installed.  The receiver is plugged into the SB port(2nd from left pin set). Radio has been bound to receiver.  When powered on, the MP message is Pre-arm, RC not calibrated.  Going to the initial setup tab, Mandatory HW,  Radio Calibration, Calibrate Radio, no radio inputs are reflected in MP.

Not sure what I have missed.

Anyone else setup this configuration or have suggestions on identifying the issue and resolving?

TIA,

Tim

    This caught me out too!

    Perhaps a different label on the "SB" port might help for those of use too lazy to RTFM?

    Please connect your R3008SB like this.
