zyx-s won't operate servos after reconnect
Hey there. Looking for help with the setup of my zyx-s with a Blade 300X and DX6i.
In a nutshell, I've gone through the whole setup process and got it to where everything works as best I can tell without flying. However, when I disconnect the battery and reconnect, the two aileron servos (channels 1 & 2) won't move. If I disconnect the servo wires from the zyx-s and plug them in a different channel (1 or 4) they work. Then when I hook everything back up to the proper channel on the zyx-s, they work fine (everything move in right directions). I've done this several times, so it's consistent. When I plug the battery in each time, the receiver, satellite and gyro initialize normally (and I get either a solid blue or red light, depending on if I have rate mode or heading hold selected on my transmitter). Not really sure what to do next. Servos are stock EFLRDS76. This is a brand new air frame and servos that I got minus the BX unit and am trying to get flying (whenever the wind chills allow). No flight time at all on them. Let me know what you think. Thanks for the help. |

I had exactly the same thing. some DS76 would not work after powering the heli. I read on a post here that some versions of the firmware caused DS76 not to initialize. It said downgrade to fw 3.5. I did that and it worked. Later I tried 4.01 and 4.02? I think. Both did not work with some servos. I found 4.00 and it worked and I began flying the heli. That ZYX-S eventually failed and I bought a ZYX-S2 and it works with the DS76 servos.

I loaded version 3.5 and everything appears to be working. Now if it would just warm up a bit so I can fly it!
I can confirm that 4.00, 4.01 and 4.02 all did now work with my set up for what its's worth. Thanks for the help! |
