Christopher Morris 2 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Hi, i have a DX8e & i can't get the menu button to scroll past Main screen & Servo set up.IE: when i roll the thumb wheel it just goes back & forth between these two item's on the menu. I tried an up date & this seemed to load ok, but made no difference. Its almost like i have locked it. Any ideas. Thanks Edited By Christopher Morris 2 on 22/12/2019 13:06:37 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Harris - Moderator Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Probably a silly answer as I don't use Spektrum but I do program a few for beginners. I don't recognise the menus you're referring to. What happens if you select Main Screen - does this take you to the normal menu? Perhaps you've locked yourself into a sub menu? I assume you're entering Set-up via the roller button pressed while powering up method?

Denis Watkins Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 The final drive on the thumb wheel Christopher is about a 1mm cross section and made of plastic ! Mine rounded off, and luckily there where metal pivot wheel replacements. The board holding the assembly is easily removed held by 1 screw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i very lightly touch it, it starts chattering, & the menu is trying to change. Any suggestions on where i might get a replacement roller wheels. ??

Christopher Morris 2 Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 This will teach me to buy secondhand. lol. It seem like its an upgrade to fit an ally wheel, as the plastic one is common fault to ware out, so i will try this 1st. The cheapest one i could find was an ally one on ebay @ £10 inc p@p. Its a shame that hobby king discontinued it as it was only £4.00. Knowing my luck, it will be the roller board. lol Thanks for the help.
