Dragon Link works with 14mz or any PPM module

[satgod]

it took some reading and a little playing around but I got it
Dragon Link or any ppm based module will work with the 14mz

you just have to setup the trainer port in the 14mz correctly and make a special cable or buy one and any ppm based module will work

quick youtube video on how to

futaba 14mz with dragon link or any other ppm based module (6 min 32 sec)

I just saw your video on getting the Futaba 14MZ to work with Dragon-link. Thank you for the help, as it works great now. The question I have, is where did you get the DSM2/DSMX transmitter?
Thanks

This is the guy I got it from

you could get the orange version and use it also depending on what you really want it for

you might have to re-assign some of the channels but on the 14mz its so easy to do that its no big deal
if you have access to a 3d printer you might check this out

even if you dont you can order it printed from them I believe. Not sure what the cost would be

Thank you for the info. I do have a 3D printer. I should try it out.
I was flying my FPV multirotor yesterday with the dragonlink on my 14Mz, and every now and then as I fly, the receiver does back to natural. I used to fly dragonlink with my Jr 10X with no problem. Did not know if you came across something like this.

I have not had this problem
do you have your 14mz set to student 8ch and not 12ch
I have notice if I set it to 12ch I sometimes get undesired affects
also what is your power source for the dragon-link

[jbdww]

That is interesting. I have mine on 12ch as I use 12ch for my camera ship. I am also using a 2S lipo for my power source. Wonder if there is a way to make 12ch reliable.

Joe

did you have it set to 12ch when you bound the receiver to the dragon link system
I personally have never needed over 8ch's as of yet
maybe if you change the freq that its at on the 14mz
I would have to look deeper into it

did you have to disable your rf to get the 14mz to work with the dragon link
