  • Hi,
    the files I've mentioned are under:
    netlion.eu/flysky_fs-i16x_unbr...
    2nd source
    drive.google.com/file/d/1qg0B...
    UPDATE 2021:
    I have managed to create dfu files containing new firmwares.
    I've updated the unbrick pack where now you can unbrick directly to a new firmware without having to start from the 2017 stock firmware.
    The dfsue is from www.st.com
    Also on my windows 7 machine I didn't need any drivers for my stm device in dfu mode, however you may need to install st drivers www.st.com and also zadig usb drivers from zadig.akeo.ie/
    good luck fixing your FS-I6X ;)
    Edit:
    I'm seeing lot of downloads on my server logs. If my video helped you out, please give it a thumbs up, if not let me known in comments below and I'll try to follow up.
    Thanks.

    What a friendly, helpful video! If only Flysky was so concerned about its customers. Or ex-customers. I'm still trying to find out why the i6X doesn't seem to support altitude telemetry from the CAT10 sensor.
    It ought to, because you can zero the altitude on the Tx. But what about the iA6B receiver? It's fully telemetry-capable, apparently, but I can't find any info about using it with the CAT10 anywhere. Flysky don't respond to my queries. I think the i10X transmitter and iA10B receiver handle altitude data, so it looks like the i6X needs a firmware update. Oh dear. Another brick in the wall...
    Maybe it's time to move over to a Jumper T12. Ah, just think of it: Open Tx... Full FrSky compatibility... A decent support network... Developers who care... And no need for helpful emergency 'fix it' videos... ;-)

      Yeah i think the screwdriver wasn't the best possible advice from me, because steel/iron doesn't conduct very well, especially if the tip is dirty. Best is to solder like in the video, but some people doesn't have the skill / tools for it :) maybe touching it with a stripped down copper wire is a better solution but it's still a 2 man job to hold it tight, bridge the pads properly and flick the switch on :)

    Question after almost 10 months - did you update firmware in your transmitter?
    I have the same version of transmitter and firmware, and I see that I have to make a choice: alternative firmware with RSSI/SNR alarm but not working with simulators on PC (github.com/qba667/FlyPlusI6X), or stay at original firmware (or upgrade to latest but original 1.0.48 from Dec 2018 www.flysky-cn.com/fsi6x - no information what was changed) with just information about RSSI on screen (without alarm - useless with goggles FPV) and working with simulators..

      @histvan81  5 лет назад

      syhightower Hi. I'm not really sure. Did the dfuse flashing succedded at the end and also did you break the short on r53 afterwards? Also this method is for the fs-i6x version for the normal i6 you need to use a different method

    • @syhightower
      @syhightower 5 лет назад

      Istvan Horvath i have a i6x, did exactly the same as you- flashed the i6 fw. I managed to sort it out. I used the demo tool you posted (the other util is included in the flashing tool to create files) to create a new dfu file from the org.bin I got on the rcforums. I think it’s not possible to use a shared dfu file as the device, company, version has to match your device. I could be wrong, but your file didn’t work for me, but the new dfu file I created was successful in flashing with the tool

      syhightower Hi. Is there any chance you could send me the dfu file you've generated? ( histvan81 at gmail .com) I would compare it with mine. I also got mine from the same forums using the dfu tool on a linux machine with the original bin file. I wonder how different are the 2 versions. Glad you got it fixed at least :)

      Donatas Civas Hi. If you look at my video at 3:27. When i plug in the usb cable i get the new hardware found noise from windows and in device manager it's showing in DFU mode. If you got the same controller I would suggest to check the drivers for st. See description for them.

    Thanks for the video is a hope for me.
    My Flysky I6 transmitter has a different board, the processor is the MKL16Z64VLH4, there is a solution similar to this one of the video for my transmitter.

    • @histvan81
      @histvan81  5 лет назад

      This video is for I6X only. If you have a normal I6 (without X) it's a different process. Search in youtube for flysky i6 debrick

      picayzumba radiocontrol no worries. I think you might be more lucky with the normal i6 as you can rescue it without having to undo any screws just by holding down both trims on the left side while powering on

    • @picayzumbaradiocontrol1802
      @picayzumbaradiocontrol1802 5 лет назад

      Itsvan, I know that method but it does not work on my transmitter, I need to know how to put the MCU MKL16Z64VLH4 in bootloader mode, the bootloader program can not be deleted by the UART therefore it is there, I just need to know which pins to manipulate for activate it
      In the ATMega, placing pin 5 in positive voltage is easily done but in this chip I do not know how to do it.

    • @histvan81
      @histvan81  5 лет назад

      Unfortunately I'm not the expert on that to help. My I6X has an STM chip inside. I think you should try looking up this page: nathan.vertile.com/blog/2016/07/09/flysky-i6-radio-setup-and-hacking-guide/ and maybe ask the author of that page to see if he can help you out.

      Вам надо соединить два металлических контакта с метками R53, как показано на видео в 1:50. После включения в Windows появится новое устройство. После этого используйте программу из описания видео. Желаю удачи!
