trebor Posted March 4, 2017 Author Share Posted March 4, 2017 I went back to version 2.1.6 but when I tried to copy flies through it would always want to update back to the latest v 2.1.9 so that's what I'm on. This missing folder ( scripts ) should have a program lua.21.opentx along with the wizard zip. I can find the (wizard) with (templates) on it but not quite sure with (mixes) and (functions). Not even sure how to copy them into a folder so that they would work. Been looking at Opentx university frsky Taranis SD card, eeprom, and storage in the continuing education section.

Chris Bott - Moderator Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 OK it shouldn't be too hard from here. If you can look around the contents of your uSD card, then you are quite correct there should be a folder called SCRIPTS. Inside that needs to be a folder called WIZARD Inside the WIZARD folder there needs to be around 32 files,. most of which are those little sketches of bits of a model. So, these files are probably all wrapped up in wizard.zip. You need to "unzip" or "extract" that on your PC and then copy all 32 files into the SCRIPTS/WIZARD folder on the uSD card.

trebor Posted March 4, 2017 Author Share Posted March 4, 2017 I've got the wizard.zip on the computer ready to go but I thought there were 3 or 4 more folders in scripts as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bott - Moderator Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Well all the scripts are optional, you don't have to have them or their folders. I'd just add the wizard files I think.Edited By Chris Bott - Moderator on 04/03/2017 23:06:54 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trebor Posted March 4, 2017 Author Share Posted March 4, 2017 I'll give it a go tomorrow, I suppose I can always add the other folders if I need them or they can sit there empty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Bott - Moderator Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Don't forget that once you're happy with one model, you can copy that to make new ones that work the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flight1 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Glad you are working it all through Yes you can also make your own templates too especially for complicated models just remember to rename them that and not overwrite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trebor Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 I've been setting up flaps and throttle active / kill switch with sounds in the special functions bit. Would this be the best place to do it or can you do this elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyB Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Special functions is the only place you can setup sounds, so yes on that score. I personally do not use the throttle kill option available on special functions though, as it's possible to setup a far superior "sticky" throttle cut using a couple of logical switches that means throttle is only activated if the throttle kill switch is disabled AND the throttle stick itself is at zero. Mike Shellim describes how to do a variant of this on his site. His article on the basics of OpenTX is also well worth a read Edited By MattyB on 05/03/2017 19:10:51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trebor Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 I've just been setting up on the tx, once I get used to it I'll have a look at doing it through opentx program. That looks a bit complicated to me at the moment and logic switches not sure what they are yet Ps I just bookmarked that site for future reading Edited By trebor on 05/03/2017 19:40:31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wihtgar Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Hello All, Been using my Taranis plus (OpenTx 2.1.9) for several weeks on LBT upgrade with EU X4R RX, all OK. So, decided to flash my X8R RX with the LBT firmware but all I get is "Firmware update error" Any Ideas? Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flight1 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Sounds like/ maybe that you have used the wrong firmware file . the X4r uses diferent firmware to the X6r and X8r, easy done X8R_LBT_build151118 is for X8R and X6R receivers X4R_LBT_X4RSB170322 is for X4R and X4RSB Edited By flight1 on 05/07/2017 17:05:23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wihtgar Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Hello flight1 I had bought the X4R with the LBT upgrade to check out the Tx when I flashed the LBT firmware and all was well. I have been using the build151118 firmware unless something has gone wrong with the unzipping and copying to the SD Card. I noticed that both the X4R and X8/6R file sizes were both the same, 64K if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Cotsford Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 The only time I have had an error message was when I plugged into the wrong receiver port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wihtgar Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Many thanks Bob. I had it plugged into the S-bus instead of the S-port! Now all Ok although I had to re-bind the RX again. Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
