Is there a module available that will let a Taranis 9XD Plus bind to a UMX Timber BNF?
Hi...i am a new user here. I want to know is this mod a change from a regular Spektrum module? I'm just wondering if the normal Spektrum module will do the same thing or if there is a difference in this board that allows direct communication with the Taranis?
I bought an Irange X 4 in 1, They now have an IrangeX Plus. I had to upload a new version into my Taranis X9D + using Companion Tx. You have to Checkbox Multi in the Application settings. I also checkbox Lua, something I plan to learn.
Doing this I followed some videos and tried binding to an older eFlite Razorback with AS3X only. In the Tx Model setup page, you choose remove internal RF then select external RF and Multi then DSM and sub-protocol 11ms. I originally tried 22ms the most likely choice but since I had the "Automatic Format" box checked, it changed to 11ms after binding. What I learned from the forums is that you set your channels to AETR, the Taranis default. I thought the Spektrum TAER channel order should be set, but I learned after binding, that the IrangeX module automatically converts to TAER. So after changing by model setup back to AETR, all worked well. The only issue I've been coming across on the forums is range and lost signal. Most of the users seem to be hard core quad users and want to get rid of all their Tx's. I will range check before I fly. So I can't report results as of now. Previous I used the OrangRx RF module with all my Bind N Fly electrics and they worked well, but it only had Dsm/DsmX protocols. I thought I'd expand my horizons (pun intended) by using the IrangeX RF module. So, you must at least have 2.20 Open Tx upgraded with the multi mode support as I've outlined. The learning curve isn't as steep, at least for me, than it was for the S8R Rx. Boy, that was a tough one! If I started today, I'd get the Irangex plus, mainly because they are positioning it to be firmware upgradeable. At least these are my thoughts as of now.
