Hi Simon, I did use it on Futaba in a plane but now I am on Spektrum it does not work.
can you suggest a controller that would work or a complete new system.
Thanks for all of your help.

On a DX6i the Gear and Flap switches are already assigned to channel 5 and 6 (aux) respectively.
You can see this visually with the 'Monitor' function when you activate the Gear or Flap switch.
You could use either channel as long as you are not using them for anything else.😉
Simply plug your light controller into your chosen channel on the receiver.
By default you will see that activating the switch causes the signal to go to the mid point rather than full travel. Such a change is normally sufficient to activate most controllers but it can be altered if required.
I hope this helps.

Thank you all for the info, I will have a go when I can & let you know.
The lighting system I am using is by G.T. Power Rc, if that is any help.

Could some one please help me, I have a Spektrum DX6i set up, I have fitted lights but do not know how to set up a switch to turn them on and off.
Would the gear switch work ??. And how to set it into the Transmitter and receiver, also which channel to use. All help will be most appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Pete, thanks will do,

Hi, I know this is nothing to do with what is going on at the moment,
but could some kind person remember the name of this glider in the photo
and let me know please, thanking you in advance.
Mike.

can any one name it??

This was the last time I saw this glider it was a fly away the best one I had, can't remember the name ?

Do not think I will be bothered,

What a load of rubbish is being written, do what the BMFA & CAA tell us to do & what is the problem, I have my
numbers, fixed to each plane, so away I go with no worries,
Merry Xmas, and all that, and successful landings, no holes in the ground.

Sorry, or am I wrong.

Hi Richard, the old methods are always the best, to much updating to confuse every one.
-
Hi, too much rubbish being banded about,
Mike.

Hay Ho. . hear we go again why dos not every one do as they are asked and take the tests get the required
numbers put them onto the planes which they are going to fly and forget about the CAA, BMFA, and let them sort it out, no one else can, it is so strait forward what is there to complain about.
There is so much rubbish being banded about it is no wonder a lot of people do not know what is going on.
Wait and see what the two powers come up with then do what ever it takes to carry on with this lovely hobby,
I do not think it will have any major effect on the big shows. as the pilots at these are as competent as they can be.
I am now going to sign off and get ready for XMAS.
MERRY XMAS every one and A HAPPY NEW YEAR. All the best for a better year for flying. MIKE.

Hi Chris, well said, I don't know what all of the fuss is about do as you would be done by. do as they want
and carry on enjoying your hobby, that's what I am going to do, the ones I feel sorry for are the young ones
just coming into the hobby, to much of this and it could put a lot off, so then good bye to a wonderful hobby.
Mike.

if it does happen I would like to know how the drone will post things through the letter boxes,
mdwkeruwdwit won't go through. Mike.

HI every one, this morning I have heard that Amazon are now going to use Drones to deliver their goods,
I wonder how this will effect us or not at all. I suppose they will still use vans if the address is near an airport.
Thoughts please.
Mike.

Hi, why don't every one leave this alone & see what the future brings, I have got my two numbers, so I can fly when the weather allows, I know it is good to talk but this is doing no good for any one.
I have paid my £9 to the CAA so all I have to do now is pay the BMFA subs again for 2020 & I am good to go.
.I have the use of a private air strip
. how lucky is that, do not need a club as there is not one near enough to join.Surely just do as we are asked & get on with it, I do agree the BMFA are doing a wonderful job so let them do it for all of us. The plane in my picture was used in the war & still has a bullet hole in the fuse. it still uses the same strip as we do, just the two of us, country members, we make our own rules as well as the BMFA & CAA ones.
All the best . Mike.
-
hi, is there any more news on the op numbers
Mike.
-
Why does not every one wait & see what the end out come is, let the BMFA sort it for us that is what they are there for, in my opinion you lot are putting things into the CAA brains if they have got any.
Mike.
-
What a lot of twaddle, I am now going to sign off, and carry on flying, to much is being put into this, what the CAA does that will be it & we will have to comply. go & have a fly & enjoy it, practice if you must. I am happy as I am.
Bye 4 now. Mike.

Hi Steve, if you knew what you were doing you would do as a lot of us did, answer the questions correctly and get your numbers, I got mine last week and have printed them out, now all I have to do is put them into my planes and gliders. I just do not know what all the fuss is about, it is so simple to do. why do a lot of you keep complaining, just do what you have to do and get on with it. I am now going to cancel the thread as it is so pathetic to read.
Mike.

Can some one explain to me who the BLMA is
Mike.
-
Hi every one why don't you do as I have, passed the CAA test, will pay my subscription to the BMFA.
Then when the weather permits go flying with no problems, The CAA will do what they will & you will not be able
to do any thing about it but comply.
So easy to do.
Mike.

Hi Simon, sorry I have not been in contact, my comp froze, I have done what you advised,
The thing is in monitor channel 5 there is an arrow just inside on the left when I flick the gear
switch it goes right over to the right, the lights stay on, is there any way to move the
arrow away altogether from the line so as to make the lights go off ? Mike.
