There is no way I would have been able to follow the directions in the book..your video rocks! Thank you so much for taking time to put this together.
you are always welcomed
A nice feature of the DX6i when adding Dual Rates is a feature called "D/R COMBI" which lets you combine 3 switches into 1 switch. This way you don't have to change all 3 switches. Instead you flip 1 switch (from high to low) and all 3 switches (ELEV D/R, AIL D/R and RUDD D/R) automatically adjust from high to low rates. Here's how (see page 12 of the manual or...after settings your dual rates (i.e., High 100% vs. Low 70%), Turn on radio, scroll all the way down in the menu to "SETUP LIST" then scroll down to "D/R COMBI" and simply select which switch you want to combine all 3. Now you flip 1 switch and not all 3 switches which can be a pain.
Thank you so much for this. I'm brand new to this and I've learned so much about the transmitter by following your instructions. You're a lifesaver :)
Thanks so much for your help, set mine up as we went great job!!!
Thanks for the helpful video. I was almost ready to order the transmitter that came with the RTF model. God bless.
Nice walk thru, helpful and informative
Exactly what I was looking for thanks! ;)
informative, i did enjoy it!
Thank you so much for this I was seriously stuck
Brilliant Mate ! I would have lost without this video, the instructions were not too clear... Many thanks ! :)
rob b quite alright when the World reads posts. always wel comesd
Thanks !!! excellent video!!! .....very didactic .
Own: DX6i
thgank you. appreciate your comment and compliment
Just setting up my new DX6i and would like to offer the following comments/corrections:
1. First do a model select and pick the model number you want to modify.
2. Then do a model reset. (not sure if required... see #3)
3. Then select model type Acro. Do this before any other programming since when you select model type it restores all programming to factory defaults. If you do any programming before this step it will be lost. Took me a while to figure this out.
4. Set Reverse - Gear channel
5. Set the dual rates to 100% high and 70% low. The video shows setting the Expo to these rates. I believe the dual rates should be in the first column and expo rates in the second column. Not sure what settings to use for Expo or if it should be left INH.
6. For flaps it should be 100 arrow up, 100 arrow down.
7. I couldn't get the beginner/intermediate/expert to work with the settings in the book but found these settings that seem to work: Travel Adj Gear 0 110 arrow up, Gear 1 30 arrow down; Mix 1 ACT, Gear to Gear, Act D 0%, U +125 SW Mix, Trim INH. You can observe the results in the Monitor.
8. Any comments regarding the Expo settings would be appreciated.
Dave NB thanks for the right up appreciate it
Great vid mate, very helpful (-:
Thanks Bro.
Hey, thanks it is a great video for beginners like me.
I was lucky to pick up a cheap used dx6 so bought the bnf version and followed your video.
However I understand I am supposed to be able to see telemetry (voltage) as well.
I have no luck getting voltage indications.
Do i have to bind it differently to get this working?
Thanks for yr setting up vid! For beginners, will u buy DX6i or DX6 & why? Thank you! 👍🏼
Just got the DX6 and love it! But could not figure out for the life of me how to reverse the servos. Was use to the 6i and was getting frustrated. Didn't even see it in the instructions.
Thanks!
Like a kid at Christmas. I know. something we all do is overlook
Servo set up. and highlight.. I use my video as my notes, to help me the next time I FORGET. Always welcomed
Thanks for the video. I took me a while to figure this out. I understood it a little different with the D/R Expo settings, then I looked at your comments. Did you edit this yet?
I have a dx6i and can got to intermediate mode but how do u get to experienced mode ? Thanks
Again, a FANTASTIC video Fishy! Many thanks for turning the Sport Cub S2's DX6i programming information into something easy for us technophobia types to follow. The DX6 is on my list, but it will be a few more months before one is in my hands. How are you liking yours compared to the DX6i? (I need the increased model memory and love the back light on the DX6's screen!)
Well if I were on a forum I talk more about it. maybe some one can put a good word in there for me to re in state my name? I love it. I got not one, but two, and takes a little getting used to, forget what people tell you about things, and enjoy it.
So you're dx6i setup for the Sport Cub I need a setup for dual aileron plane is it the same I got to activate the Dule the wrong right
Great video! I used your dx6 instructions to set up with a dx8 gen 2. I think you only showed setting the dual rate to 70% for the rudder. Should aerilons and elevators also be set at 70%? Does the 70% limit travel of the rudder to 70%? I'm new at BNF. Does the panic mode button (I) work with this set up? You followed the setup instructions in the book so I assume that it will....
LOL....I just looked at book and notice that the instructions for setting up the dx8 are very different than the dx6. In fact the set up instuctions don' appear to even apply to the gen 2 version. Most everything is working though. Cut off switch works and one of the two beginning modes seems to work. the rudder does to be traveling at 100 percent in all switch positions....at any rate, you video gives me a very good idea of how to proceed.
Yes ifzzi did not show it all that is right. the travel will be 70 percent but the tick will stretch it to the full limit
Nice Video
Can you tell me how the swiches had to be in witch positions for the three flightmodes
Oh i forgotten for the DX6i
I have a sport cub s2 and the same transmitter would I have to install a new servo in order to get it to work?
Wgy, it'd bindable to the S2?
followed this to a tee . really helped everything seems good except i can only get beginer and expert mode not the intermediate..checked everything over and over lol oh well stuck with rookie and pro mode i guess
I suggest doing a video and maybe by viewing it we can say there is your mistake?
I had the same problem, turns out the manual is wrong and you need to set the U to 125% not 100% in MIX 1. This will make the third click of the switch work (-:
Jax thats exactly what i did and it worked for me ! had to change u to 125 and it worked perfectly ! spektrum needs a manual update..
Yeah I know right, it's amazing that they don't know about this and even more amazing if they know about it but don't bother changing it!
Nelson Castillo
Yeah cool Nelson, thats great! (-:
Hello,
I mean , how do i use the switches to go from beginner mode to intermediate and experiance mode
I have the dx6i programmed
Greetings
If I recall, it may been two switches or just that left red/blue taped one I know the DX6 was any switch you assigned.
Gear is what switch that will be the switches I believe
Do you know of any video's explaining how to setup a Spektrum Dx6i on a Aeroscout S 1.1 ? I am having problems setting up the switches and settings . Any video help or links to a video to follow would be great . TIA
Page 5 of the Manual it's a 4 ch plane. would be not much different then the Sports cub
Hey, I messed with my three modes switch (switch d) on my dx6 and I was wondering what you have your settings on the three modes expo and dual rates or whatever!
Kyle Schieler If Iset my SCS up the D/R Expo OFF Switch to 1 75/40 on all three travels. Switch 2 60/40 all 3 travels. Expo is like a delay in the stick or better allows greater movement the Curve where it peaks is all going to be that expo
At 5:37 in the video you set the flap down (land) value to 100, but the arrow is pointing up...just like in the normal position. That value set should be arrow down to 100 according to the manual. With it the way you set it, my flap switch had no effect when using the monitor to check things out.
On some Dx6i's, at 4:42 in this video you'll need to set the TRAVEL ADJ for gear down to 30, instead of 40.
Also, at 1:45 in the video it looks like he set (for the Dx6i) D/R both to 100%, and accidentally set Expo to 100% and 70%. Per the manual, with switches in position 0, set rates to 100% and expo to INH (inhibit) for all (1st column 100%, 2nd column INH). With all switches in position 1, set rates to 70% and expo to INH. Some may want low rates at position 0 and high on position 1, your preference. And these can be customized if you like...
Otherwise, thanks for the help! Even with these issues, it helped me learn how to navigate the Dx6i.
You did it! Thank you so much! Setting TRAVEL ADJ for gear down to 30, instead of 40 enabled Intermediate Mode! I was stuck at either Easy, or Advanced. Now when pushing left, then rotating the plane, everything stays like it should until it tips too much and then bam! Flaps ignore my input!
I haven't got a clue what your talking about, , , ,I have a DX6i, you don't state how you select the 3 modes, what switch position do you use for each mode, and where is the panic button, , , , Does anyone know
MrSIZEMIK what are you talking about. nothing easy about this at all
Im a little confused here on the DX6 setup . On one radio your showing DR set 100% and you set the Expo 70% on the DX61 and on the DX6 your doing it only on the DR 100/70% and not touching the expo so just asking anyone what is the real setup for the DX6 . Do you leave the DR all at 100% and drop the Expo the 70% or is it only changing the DR and not touching the Expo? If anyone knows or has a link to a video walking one through the Sport Cub setup on a DX6 ....Thanks for any help..
Bear Cubb did you figure this out? I have same problem
Yes i followed the instructions out now for the DX6 it was expo only the DX61 needs both done and setup differ. The DX6 has its own mixing setup in the radio and dont need to set switches up.
I thought the Sport Cub S 2 came out in 2020... How come you already have it in 2014?
the new board, has battery info to the Reciever, they did not update a lot much more then that to say
Nice Video! Are you by chance familiar with a DX6 setup to work with Lemon RX stabilizer? Thank you.
No Have not used it in a long time sorry
will this give it safe mode the blue light mode
as long as you followed hte instructions
Followed steps for The 6i, pausing video. Step by step, & when I binded to sport cub S2, engine was running full speed & wouldn't stop until I unplugged the battery from plane! I gave up! Guess I'll use transmitter that came with plane! Bummer!
you did something wrong, you could have also added a throttle cut off, sorry but I can follow my steps and see if there is an issue if like
@@fishycomics if you have time. I appreciate your feed back, thank you!
@@festalongreyhawkshorts4sho645 now I only have a DX6 no longer a DX6I so that be super had to do but let me re-watch and see the mistake if there is one.
@@festalongreyhawkshorts4sho645 100% correct make sure you did it right apologize if you dod not set correctly
@@fishycomicsI'm sure it's my error. Thanks so much for your time! Your awesome!
Hello
I have a old Taylorcraft with no flap. I have the same transmitter as in this post.
How can set this up so I can use the wings for flaps on take off once in the air I can switch them off.
Thanks
I no longer have my old one I did a vid on the new one if you follow along you may be able to set up here is the link ruclips.net/video/flzbqYHsCjU/видео.html
@@fishycomics Okay
Thanks for the fast reply.
My transmitter is the DX6I. Screen setup diffirent on the one I just watch. I understand now to get in the program by watching your other post some time ago. That's how I got this Taylorcraft going. Again I was interested in making the wings as flaps once in the air I'll cut the switch off. I sure you know what I'm sharing with you. The video in just watch is what I need to program. I'm sure there a few steps to follow. Do I go in to flaps or change that way.
Thanks again
for your time.
Maybe I'll watch it again
Thanks
@@johnraylangstonjohnraylang5924 do not have the answer off hand. I understand the question, you need to choose the aircraft type flaps, and then able to set the flaps with a assigned switch. I use my vids as a reference if I forget. wish I could offer more. I can grab the DX6 radio anddo it again but you really need a DX6I vid. hope that helped some.
@@fishycomics Again I'll keep viewing your post maybe I can make it work yes you been real helpful there's no doubt in my mind. How the weather is not all that bad. Heard on the News up states was going to get alot of rain. Here in Georgia we git some yesterday it over now 80 degrees here.
Thanks again
Can you explane the switches how to use for the flight modes
On the dx 6 you pick a switch and set up if you want flaps, you have to have flaperons set, then go to sw D set things up
How about setup for dx5e?Thanks.
+Cj Hyde ifit's a older one like mine ther are no set uo's for it
That’s
One thing confuses me - I thought the zero positions on the DX6i were the low rates hence wouldn't you set those 70% values in the low or 0 position? Thanks.
Sandy Scott It's up to you which is your high or low rate. The manual even states this (page 62).
I'm sorry, but I didn't get one more thing in the video - The 6th step of the original manual clearly states that in DX6i FLAPS have to be set as NORM ARROW UP 100% and LAND ARROW *DOWN* 100% but you suggest to set *both* NORM and LAND to ARROW *UP* 100%. If to go the way you did the FLAPS channel will be set at the same level regardless in which position the FLAPS toggle switch is that means the PANIC mode won't work at all.
MSM5500 thanks I checked my vid looks good I f asked?
you move the dual rates to 100% high and 70% low not the amount of expo. in the dx6i portion of the video you left both low and high rates on 100% and moved your expo wich will just soften the sticks, servos move slower in the center, kinda hard to explain. watch the video by Flitetest on DR and expo, they have props/models to explain it and do a great job doing so. otherwise thanks for the video.
Yes its like a curve turning your car steering. I agree hard to explain.
@@fishycomics Maybe you could answer this for me Sir...I only can get beginner and intermediate mode on my dx6i...I double checked and triple checked everthing.
DR1LLB1T F
Which one is the panic button
TheWylieNinja45 X6has switch assignments so you can assign panic to I that should be the push one to the left mid top
All the buttons
In Dx6i set up my manual shows Set Flaps LAND 100% with the arrow DOWN you show arrow up. That’s not correct. ALSO in DR and Expo set up you put high rates at 100% and Expo at 100%. Are you sure you need 100% Expo? Manual doesn’t mention any expo at all.
thank you for correcting me great advice
Sir, why D/R and expo 100%+100% ?
Dual rates I kept one at 100% so I have full control, 70% so I have 30% less throw. not sure ifI can explain this right but no longer into the hobby ...
No wonder he's no longer in the hobby.
no just what you think I wil lreply to the topic here
Sorry to let know but it was wrong with the dx6
Your video is very usefull, but, I think you dont set the dual rate but the expo(INH). Is that way you are showing us an easiest way for beginner flyers?Set Dual Rates
to:
HIGH 100%
LOW 70%
agree thanks for the advice
*****
Perhaps you could edit out the dual rate segment and add the correct way to set the dual rates.
No kidding, this is really confusing
Don Rhone I will redo it for you.
Your wright just changed the expo
Can I bind a dx6 to a dx6?
I know you can Buddy a DX to DX
I will keep trying then
@@olsonaviation9382 Back of radio is two jacks headset and buddy check with spectrum if otehr radios allow that
FLAPS down should be 40%, not 100%. Right?
No, I'm wrong, you have it right.
I make mistakes, and will correct them. this is my note, and am sure like you said, may be right. been a while. In the manual FLAP DOWN 40%
+fishycomics Hi, please excuse me I am slow to learning this and new at the hobby. What specifically is wrong in your video vs. what has been said in the comments? If I am set up as you have shown in the video for the Sport Cub am I good with the DX6i? Thanks for your help and appreciate the videos!
that is a sport cub s
誰か翻訳ビデオ作って～
This didnt work at all, plane sat there with a blinking blue LED
sorry to hear the plane did not work wit hte set up
Stupidly confusing to put dual rates on three different switches
Eric sin sinner You can assign all of these rates to one common switch using the D/R&COMBI menu option on the Dx6i...
Tman317
YES thats my point, no reason to separate each D/R per axis, and I suggest getting rid of the DX6i
If you read the manual. gues you did not. I said guess.
