DX8 trouble

Posted by Dara Shayda on December 16, 2011 at 10:46am

I am turning on the RC for the first time:

1. Loaded the code and got the gps running and all is well.

2. I turn on the DX8 and get THROTTLE HIGH FLAPS MIDPOSITION which is the same error whether the APM board is on or off. 

I read this:

We've also had reports of people having trouble with Spektrum radios, which have a funky binding process. This is what works: bind with the RX and Satellite connected and APM powered up. Also, the 22ms frame rate works the best. Even though it binds at 11ms, after binding, start up the DX8 in setup mode and switch to 22ms frame rate.
