Taranis X9D - Pixhawk - how to set up radio failsafe?

Posted by Bill Salopek on May 20, 2015 at 12:00am

Hi guys,

Looked everywhere, and tried several methods to get the radio fail safe to work with the Taranis X9D.

I am of course trying to get the PWM of the throttle channel below the PWM in the radio fail safe box, so that when the radio or receiver fails, the Pixhawk goes into failsafe / RTL mode.

Is there a step-by-step somewhere?

Thanks...

Bill

On the model setup page (1st page) set Extended Limits. The go to the Servos page and lower the endpoint of the throttle channel while watching the Mission Planner Failsafe screen to see the throttle PWM drop. When it's where you want it (below 950), press the Rx failsafe button to memorize the setting. Then return the throttle endpoint back to where is was.
