![]() ![]() I made a few mods on my T-Six to make it a little more user friendly.įirst I swapped the Gear and Throttle Cut switches so that they are at the same position as my DX8 and DX7s. Will arrive in a few days and I will test it out. It looks like it can fly all the modules I have ever used. Nordic Semiconductor NRF24L01: HiSky, Syma, ASSAN and most other Chinese models Texas Instruments CC2500: FrSky, Futaba SFHSSĪmiccom A7105: FlySky, FlySky AFHDS2A, Hubsan Go see this new ORX-T6 substitute by Banggood called the JUMPER:Ĭyprus Semiconductor CYRF6936: DSM/DSMX, Walkera Devo With a very light SLICK twisted foamy it can crash with no throttle and cause no damage to the airplane or a person on the flight line. No worry of failure in the air because the throttle cut switch can be used to power down the throttle any time I needed. I have tested at the field and it performs as good as new. So my permanent solution is to put a bead of RTV in the case to put the same pressure on the pot. I put in a cotton Q-tip to push laterally on the pot. So I drilled an 1/8" whole in the left side of the orange case. Eventually I realized that if I put LATERAL pressure on the Tx pot it would work well. The system would start and fail randomly. The failure of the Tx pot was not changed in the long term by re-soldering the Tx pot leads. UPDATE: the failure of my ORX-T6 has finally been fixed.and you won't believe it. Test by turning the transmitter off and observe flight controller behaviour via groundstation - QGC, APM Planner or Mission Planner - you should get a throttle fail-safe and initiate Return To Launch. Set throttle travel back to default 100% down. Now bind to receiver with the throttle on minimum and switches in normal positions. ![]() I also set the Arducopter throttle fail-safe level to 990PWM just to be sure. This is similar to having the throttle cut switch operated. Set throttle travel to 125% down, this takes the PWM output into the throttle fail-safe region, about 975PWM on my T6. Also I don't want to bind with flight mode switch in RTL mode as I'll probably end up altering flight modes and switch positions and forget about fail-safe In that case RC loss would initiate some other flight mode and actions or crash. Orx T6 wont output any signal at all or bind while there's any warning or error, cant bind with throttle cut switch operated. I'm using Arducopter on a multirotor so this would initiate Return To Launch if there's RC loss. To allow for RC loss condition, bind Orx T6 transmitter to receiver while in "throttle cut" mode to set that as the receivers fail-safe. Is it worth replacing or should I move up to something else that will give me better operational features and reliability? Looking for comments. So if I get it all working again, will I trust it to fly an airplane or a drone in the air? What if it locks up when I am flying? I see that has the same unit for $75 called FrSky. I think I have bumped some of the controller wires and need to re-solder. Now the throttle level will not change from full. Took apart case and all screws on controller board for switches. New problem of the trim switch for rudder only working in one direction. SOLUTION: patience at holding down the throttle for a long time. Now I can control my models and get to all the menus. Eventually with a lot of playing around, I got it to go to 0% and the throttle warning turned off. Got same warning, but noticed that if I held the throttle stick down hard, that the "setting" value started to drop from 34%. So I charged my LiPo to full and tried again. SOLUTION: I saw earlier in this thread where people had similar "throttle warning" error.
