    Replacing switches with pots

    My son is into robotics as a hobby and likes to work with electronics and software as his hobby. For his birthday I got him a X9 Lite. For his hobby needs, he needs more pots and less switches. So, this brings up the question: Can SA, SB, and SC switches be replaced with pots? The physical...

    Antenna replacement on S6R

    I recently obliterated a plane due to dumb flying (mea culpa) but was able to recover the receiver and battery. The rest of the gear is lost in the woods. The receiver is a S6R and one of the antennae was ripped out. I purchased a pair of replacement antennae but I don't know what to use to...

    Can't flash receivers with ACCST 2.1 from X9 Lite

    Sorry if this subject has been covered already. I looked in this area but didn't find it. If this subject already exists, please direct me to it. 1. Here's the problem: when I connect the X9 Lite to the PC, the SD card and Taranis drives do not show up on the Windows Explorer on my PC. 2. I...

    Servo Speed vs. Number of Channels set

    Help with QX7 firmware update

    I am trying to udpate the firmware on my Frsky from version 2.2.1 to 2.3.1 so that I can use Companion to copy models to my newer X9 Lite with version 2.3.1. However, when I try to power on the X7 while holding the trim tabs to center, nothing happens. The screens lights up but nothing else...

    Copying Model Settings from FrSky X7 to X9 Lite

    I have a handful of models that I would like to move from my Frsky X7 to my new X9 Lite. What is the best way to do it? I have not used Companion previously, and the X7 is in version w2.2.x (I don't remember exact version) and the X9 Lite is in version 2.3 Opentx. Thx

    Taranis Plus ACCESS "2019"

    I'm surprised nobody started a discussion about this latest radio from Frsky. Maybe everybody is still trying to get their heads around the X9 Lite and ACCESS. Elsewhere Wayne mentioned an upcoming X11 and X12 release. So let's count the models: X9 Lite is basically an equivalent of an X6 X7...

    RX8R Pro dropouts (switch issue)

    Range check distance

    Aside from the obvious packaging differences, what are the other differences between the Horus 10S and 12S?
