I have become a fan of your RUclips channel, I learn so much from it and that makes me grateful. please continue with your work because you will save a lot of annoyance for people who still have to learn all this. greetings from the Netherlands
Lee- I opened my confuser this morning and found a present from across the pond! You have a distinct style of explaining complex subjects so eloquently, I am proud to be a subject for you to mentor. I now have a twenty one year run of adjusting to various radios starting with four channel analog “dumb “ Futaba and Hitec then jumping on the JR computer craze. They became more and more complex as new editions came out but staying with one brand I became somewhat fluent in setting up for fixed wings and then helis. But getting involved with quads the availability of JR receivers became an issue with my current transmitters. I think having a new series of how to’s on this breaking operating system is wonderful for those of us who came later in the game to learn the practice of learning code language, and importantly why you do what you need to do in modern radios using the open tx style of setup. Thanks for your response! It’s like hitting the RC lottery for an old man!
Fantastic tutorial, Lee! Thanks!!! 😃 I guess EdgeTX is going to be the way forward. OpenTX is still in the same place. 😕 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Great vid Painless. Just upgraded to Edge. Not much difference yet, the USB speed for Sims is highly responsive now. Can't wait to see what's to come for EdgeTx in the coming years..👍
Been putting off changing from open to edge tx as I'm not bothered about touch screen as I have big sausage fingers and the old axiom " if it's not bust don't fix it" Stay safe Lee
Hello…my TX16S mk2 max with version 2.7.1 shows templates when I press the scroll wheel. It never shows select model. I only have one fixed wing plane which I set up and each time I power up the radio, the airplane becomes active. I’m wondering what will I see when I set up a 2nd plane. It doesn’t seem right that the one plane I have set up becomes active when I power up the radio.
Thanks for responding. When I power up the radio it goes to welcome screen. I press scroll key (both short and long) and it goes to the Select model, Chan monitor Model settings and Radio settings screen. I press Select model and up pops the Templates screen showing a Delta and Omphobby M2 planes along with the only model I created. I hit on my model and up pops a window asking if I want to Creat, Duplicate or Save as template. I just want to be able to power on the radio, pick my plane and have the radio recognize it and go fly. Well I thought if I could delete it from the Template screen everything would be okay. Well I messed up....my only plane on the radio is gone forever. Looks like I have to now re-create the model.
Please help. I have just set up my edgetx and the touch screen works and the sys also, but when I klick the MDL buttom at the right hand side I get nothing!!!? Noon of the menu's that you are showing here at all? I just have model 2 and model 3 and nothing. why do you think is that?
Hi I am using Jumper T16S and EdgeTX 2.7.1 with Flysky iA6B rx and I have frequent low RSSi but I don't see the RF Freq Fine Tune option like in your Radiomaster? Dou you have any idea? Few articles I read wrote that the fine tuning option only shows when the TX bind with certain RX is this true?
I am simply looking to replace the background image, a 480x272 PNG files in the themes/default folder but then what do I do I can't get it to work can you provide a link to a video? I'm looking through your videos I don't see how to do that
Hi. Can't bind, model status.."no telemetry data detected".Radiomaster MK2.(v2.6) What should I do? I'm trying to update the module.."error NoSync".Any ideas would be nice.
Hi Lee. I have just purchased a TX16s Mk2 running edgetx. I am struggling to find how to transfer my models from my Taranis x9d running open tx. Could you please point me in the right direction as the tutorials I have found so far do not seem to be compatible with what I am seeing. Cheers
Hi Lee, i hope you still follow the older vids? i am here for same reason as Wrstew, Coming from a "older" "normal" radio Opentx AND in our case Edge TX is bewildering! This as helped somewhat BUT what i really need to know is about "radio setup" some of the options and titles in there seem very important. some ,a lot infact are very technical,how do i know which i need? all ics say is i will be using DSM2 and OMP potocols, would you know what i need to choose for all the options,every one sounds mega important.
EdgeTX is functionally equivalent to OpenTX. What elements of EdgeTX are you struggling with that you use in OpenTX? The MPM stuff is almost identical...
Hello lee. I want to use a 2306 2400kv motor, with an 80a esc and 6s voltage. Is there any way to put a throttle cap? Either in inav or the tx. Thank you
@@Painless360 it is the wrong one lol, I was just trying to use what I had laying around. ended up going with a 2306 1700kv on 6s with a 5" tri blade, love the results.
Yet another great video. I am new to EdgeTX. I tried to setup a hotliner with a V tail. I used the wizard and chose V-tail with two separate channels. Only one works. What did I do wrong?
No, sorry. I don't use pre-arm here. www.multirotorguide.com/guide/arm-prearm-and-how-to-start-your-quad/ seems to have a good guide that should work with EdgeTX.. Best of luck!
Great info looking forward to this series ... I’ve just switched my TX16s from OpenTX to EdgeTX I’ll copied the script folder across and. am just wondering which lua are still relivent I seem to have a lot should I delete the old stuff to make it more concise Which do you use ? Thanks for all your help 😊👍
At the moment I'd only update the Crossfire, INAV and Yaapu LUA scripts on the radio as those are all I use. I'd add them fresh to the radio so I get the latest versions..
0:58 This is the biggest problem with many OSS projects. I wonder sometimes whether it's done intentionally to allow for the not-so-cottage industry of RUclipsrs to make a living. The answer is, yes, you have to watch random videos as they pop-up, or 'EdgeTX Masterclass' (lol - what is this, Physics?) videos from the 'other' EdgeTX guy on RUclips.
@09:33 Hmm... So, I have this 1/16 scale RC Tank ( ruclips.net/video/Rs_ICMgQiBY/видео.html ) that runs on a _highly_ specialized Controller Board that cannot have its settings changed by the user ( only the type of model and the sounds ). One of the things that grinds my gears is when changing between the 3 modes for how the Model operates where in two of the modes you have limited control of the radar but full control of the tank whereas in the third mode you lose control of the chassis but gain independent control of the radar. Normally you'd expect for them to keep the controls the sam for what stays and just rearrange what changes ( control of the Turret remaining with the Chassis handing over to the Radar ) but they decided otherwise ( controls of the Turret hand over to the Radar and the Chassis handing over to the Turret ). This obviously didn't work for me which is why I've had to mix the crap out of the model to rearrange everything back to be consistent depending on the mode resulting in this Mixer atrocity: i.imgur.com/1kaQCgv.png which brings me to my Question: Can Flightmodes swap Channels around like how I did in Mixes ( possibly tidying things up ) or are they only meant for changing values without altering the Channel?

I just wanna say, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
You help me so much.
Please keep doing more videos like this, is so easy to learn.
Thank you very much

I did pop you a preview link to your original request. Glad you found it. Happy flying
I just flashed edge tx on my Radio master tx16s, great overview of the menu layout. Thanks!👍
Yesterday my TX16s MAX arrived, such good timing!
Great and concise tutorial, thank you!
Fantastic tutorial, Lee! Thanks!!! 😃

See my update on this in the Patreon LIVEStream..
There is an option, somewhere in edgeTx, to disable touch screen. It can also be put on a switch. Go for the upgrade
Thanks Lee! EdgeTX is awesome!
Looks almost the same as OpenTX. Just a different look. Good overview. Cheers.
If you know OpenTX, then EdgeTX will take you all of about 5 mins to get to grips with... Happy flying!

Short or long press?

I'd check you are using the right firmware for your radio and reflash... Best of luck

I've not made one on the themes. I replaced the image in one of the exusting themes... best of luck
Any info in changing mode? I fly mode 1 but most radios if not all are shipped in mode 2. So is this easy to change?
Mode change is in the radio settings at the bottom, then it's changing the tension and springs for the gimbals... Happy flying
Hi. Can't bind, model status.."no telemetry data detected".Radiomaster MK2.(v2.6) What should I do? I'm trying to update the module.."error NoSync".Any ideas would be nice.
I have videos on binding and updating that cover the common gotchas.. What have you tried already?
Where is the travel adjust can't find it im new to this type of radio I feel like an idiot thanks
Check out the Simple plane setup video in the ETHOS series, I cover that and much more. Best of luck
New to Edgetx, qui k question how do I setup custom startup splash screen on the Taranis X9D plus?
Hi Lee. I have just purchased a TX16s Mk2 running edgetx. I am struggling to find how to transfer my models from my Taranis x9d running open tx. Could you please point me in the right direction as the tutorials I have found so far do not seem to be compatible with what I am seeing. Cheers

You'd like need to do that in INAV throttle channel limits. Why would you want to? If you need to to then the power system maybe the wrong one?
@@Painless360 it is the wrong one lol, I was just trying to use what I had laying around. ended up going with a 2306 1700kv on 6s with a 5" tri blade, love the results.
Thanks Lee!
With the help of your Videos I'm about to change over my TX16s to EdgeTx , will I to need to re Bind the receiver's?
Cheers
You shouldn't have to. Remember to back up evertthing before you start Best of luck
@@Painless360 Thank you very much for the quick response! You help to make this stuff heaps easier and lots more fun. Cheers
Can I use amber pack from open tx on edgetx ?
Do you know if edgeTX works fine with ACCESS? I have an ELRS 2.4GHz transmitter module but was going to keep the 9GHz Encrypted.
I don't use any ACCESS stuff here. Sorry. Best of luck
What transmitter are you using in the video?
Eachine TX16s.
Yet another great video. I am new to EdgeTX. I tried to setup a hotliner with a V tail. I used the wizard and chose V-tail with two separate channels. Only one works. What did I do wrong?
Possibly nothing but I'd check you have the V tail servos both plugged into the right places on the reciever as step one..
Hi, do you have a video on how to use the Momentary Switch (SH) to Arm Your Model with Open TX edge on a tx16 Mk2 with edge 2.6, thanks in advance

Hello, I have just install 2.7 but menu is the same as before
I would love to upgrade to edge tx tried twice failed both times
The times I have tried it here it worked great. Have you seen my upgrade video for it?
