  • Craig,  Not 100% sure my setup will work on DX8 but if you want, try my setup.  See "Seeing Up 6 Flight Modes Using Flaps and Elec D/R Switches for the Spektrum DX7s Radio". 

    • If someone could send me their dx8 file with 6 flight modes working. I'd be very appreciated

    • 3DR just called me back and they sent me the files for DX8. Big help in switch assignments and so on. Big time saver.

  • what issues? 

    There isn't much radio setup to do even on them. I've got a 9303, and have setup a DX7 before. Neither were a dx8, but the setup is pretty similar. I didn't do anything to them other than setup airplane mode, make sure to plug the right wires from the rx into the right spots on the APM. I think by default the APM has the channel assignments more in line with Futaba, so for JR/Spektrum I had to set channel 1 of my rx (throttle) into channel 3 on the APM, ch. 2 of the rx (aileron) to channel one on the APM, rx ch. 3 (elevator) to ch. 2 on the APM, and 4 went to 4. 

    Then I configured a timer and some expo/dual rates on mine for more gentle flying.  

     

    • Hey Ryan,

          I am having a hard time getting my Dx8 to operate the 6 flight modes on Pixhawk. I am running flaps on a Bixler 2 and curious how I should go about this. Any suggestions on setting up? I think my prob is assigning switches in switch select.
