    motionrc support is top notch 👍

    Are your ailerons on two separate channels? Or a Y harness?

    when i press button the rx always try to put the plane in knife edge ...

    already did the calibration as suggested by support without luck

    Well thanks to all, I got it working. I put the Combo C on switch A (2 position) and moved the flap connector aux 1 and back to switch D where is was oriiginally (pre Admiral). I still didn't work right and after completely missing the obvious I went in and reversed the flaps in Transmitter now all is well. I ended up putting throttle cut on switch B. Now I can switch in and out of stabilization and the flaps work in the right direction.

    I think most people use the switch on the right top rear for throttle cut. On my DX8 G2, that's switch H. Switch A is generally used for "gear".

    If I am understanding this right (don't have the 6G2) can you live with 1/2 flaps? If so 1-2pos switch for thr cut and 1-2-pos switch for flaps up and (1/2) flaps down. Just spit ballin' here so....besides I can't remember when I used full flaps anyway.

I have the Admiral set in Combo C on 3 postion switch (using 2 positions). Of course now I do not have flaps. Any thoughts on how to set up flaps. I am using a Spektrum DX6 gen3.
    Thanks
    If you're using only 2-positions of your 3-position switch, why don't you just use one of the 2-position switches? If I'm not mistaken, the DX6 G3 has 2 - 3 position switches. The standard one is the flap switch. The other one is on the top left of the TX. Why don't you use that one for your "Combo C" and keep the default one for flaps?

    I have one of the new Radiomaster TX16S Transmitters on the way with the built in 4-in-1 Multiprotocol module, which I believe runs the same hardware/firmware as the iRangeX module. USPS claims it will be here tomorrow, although I have my doubts. I expect it to arrive MAYBE Saturday or possibly early next week. Regardless, when it gets here, I will attempt to bind one of my airplanes I am running an RX600SP in and let you know the results. As long as you can bind in DSMX mode, you should be good to go.

    Not sure...take a look at post #3 of this thread...

    I don't believe it matters. You simply have to set the gyro response in the correct direction for how you have it orientated. Yaw doesn't matter. Roll and pitch just have to be reversed.

    Roger that. It's a RocHobby P-39 racer, so it's small and probably fast. I'll turn gains down to 25% and start there. Agree, having an on/off switch for the gyro is ideal and I think I have it figured out so I can turn it on and off whilst in-flight.

    I'm still working through the setup, but trying to achieve a setting on a two position switch where I have gyros ON in one position, and gyros OFF in another position. I absolutely DO NOT CARE about 'recovery' mode at all. I put the gyro in combo 'C', and assigned to a two position switch on my DX9. However, in one switch position, the receiver shows both the red and green lights on (green light flickers SUPER fast, red light is solid), and the other switch position show a brighter SOLID green light.

    I've watched all 8 videos, but can't confirm if gyros are either ON or OFF with the setup I explained above. Can you advise?

    Again, I just want gyros ON in one position, and OFF in another position so I can turn gyros on or off as I see fit, whether in the air or on the ground.
    Sorry, I wish I could help you but I use the Lemon equivalent of this RX, which is much simpler but has less features and there are enough differences in what the lights mean and the actual procedure involved to assign an ON/OFF switch. Besides watching all the videos, have you read the quick start guide? It may provide you with a different insight. It tells you what the lights should look like for the functions you want.
