2.4 GHz Power-up

[Doug Ireland]

Hi guys a quick question if I may...

After setting up my last model with my new 2.4G equipment (DSX9) I'm a bit confused by what happens every time I power up. Regardless of wether I switch on the rx first or the tx, the result is the same. The ailerons deflect to full left then return to neutral once the link is established . If I turn off the tx the throttle returns to "Low" setting as it should then returns to whatever the throttle stick position was originally once the tx is back up.

I've tried to re-bind the system a few times but the result are the same. Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?

Perhaps you need to reset the failsafe positions of the Aileron channel - on older less well equipeed sets like the DX6 and 7 failsafe only actually moved the throttle channel - however the posh DSX9 may have true failsafe on all channels ??

I dont honestly know, 'cos I aint got one

Doug,

           The same thing happens when I power up  my DSX9, I been using the TX for about 6  months now and apart from the odd start-up it's operated without a problem.

same thing happens to me only I get full flaps then when it connects all is normal, no problems when flying though

Thanks for the replies, but does anyone know why it does it?

I have a DX6i and the control surfaces on one model deflect when Rx is switched on and then go back to neutral, apparently the cause is that the Rx puts power to the servo's before it sends the position signal, some servo's don't move when you do this, others go to one end of their travel. Which is probably why some people see it on different channels.

The aileron servos on the model in question are Hi-Tech, the rest are JR. Wonder if this is the reason?
