Receiver bars stays grey

Good day all

I have started building my pixhawk drone and purchased the pixhawk, receiver, ESCs and GPS today.

Connected switch, buzzer and GPS to pixhawk. Did the flashing of the software. Completed the calibration of the accs and the mags. Get to the receiver and all the bars stay grey and dont move.

Setup:

FC = pixhawk

GPS = M8N Radiolink

RX = Frsky R-XSR

TX := Taranis QX7

I went through the binding procedure and the green LED on the RX is green indicating a bind.

Also, when there is a telemetry lost or recovered, the voice alarms on my taranis informs me which seems to indicate also that there is a link between my TX and the RX.

Some suggestions would be appreciated !

Regards !

  • Good day 

    Problem solved. I am going to post the link just if someone else is also bumping their heads against this one.

    TX: Taranis QX7

    RX : R-XSR

    FC : pixhawk

    Problem:

    Receiver bars in initial setup of Mission planner not responding:

    Cause : Supplied cable with R-XSR is wired incorrectly. 

    Cable currently : GND, 5V, SBUS, OPEN, OPEN

    Must be GND, 5V, OPEN , SBUS, OPEN

    ie. move SBUS wire ( yellow ) one slot away.

    See YOUTUBE video for detail:
