Steve Hargreaves - Moderator Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I have a 10C but am only using it on 35MHz...the 2.4 module is in the box still but I seem to recall you can change between a 7 & a 14 channel module via the menus..might this be it?? I'll look in the book when I get a moment.... Have you simply tried binding it as it stands?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.A. Barry Posted October 19, 2010 Author Share Posted October 19, 2010 Steve not yet, there is so much in it , I am not sure where to look THX B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David McMullan Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 AA Check page 35 of user manual on how to change Modulation select. To use R617FS receivers with this transmitter you have to set modulation select to 2.4G-7CH mode. Switch transmitter off then on after making this selection. After you do this power up your receiver (you should see the receiver led blinking green) press the small bind switch located between the two antennas. When the led is steady green you have successfully bound the receiver to the transmitter. Hope this helps Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Hargreaves - Moderator Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 AA....I took my TM10 2.4 module out tonight for a looksee but David has beaten me to it!!! If you go into the Parameters option you can change between 2.4GHz 7ch & 2.4GHz 10ch equivalent to changing from PPM to PCM modulaton on 35MHz.....to get to Parameters press Mode button to get to the Basic menu....push the joystick up to get to page 2 & you will see Parameters.....its in there!!! You can toggle between 7 & 10ch!! Binding...exactly as David says...Tx on...power up the Rx & press the IDSET button on the Rx for more than 1 sec.....when the LED on the Rx turns solid green you're done....Turn off both Tx & Rx & power both up again & confirm all servos work.....

A.A. Barry Posted October 20, 2010 Author Share Posted October 20, 2010 Guys, here is what I found after all of the above ,I tried this Turn off TX Turn RX on hold down IDset button and turn on Tx , release after 1 sec, and the green light stay steady. all is good now I have done this to both Rx's and both seem to be bound almost had a bank attack, "what..... after all the $,s " no way......
