"Would anyone happen to have a step by step setup for the T8J Tx. I am so lost. I build a S800 and slapped a pixhawk on it. I have no clue how to program the TX with correct settings. I'm having problems wrapping my head around the programming."

"Update: For those of you whom are using the Pixhawk with the 3DR Radio set V2 "thats version 2) and OSD/Video kit, I have the pinning solution. All you need is a DF13 6 pin connector that you can take from the wire that came with the 3DR Radio set.…"
