OK, what am I doing wrong? I have downloaded the new software, and copied it to a new formatted 4GB SD card, put that in my 18mz, flipped the slider switch, powered up, and then after pressing any button I get "Update failure" The update files are not found.
I have tried a different card, I have tried loading it opened, as just the update, etc etc, but still cannot get it to read on the Tx. Cheers, Rob.

My extract from the PDF :
* Voltage display function This function allows some voltage sensor units to be compatible with Futaba's voltage sensor unit (SBS-01V). * The voice of T18MZ The voice of T18MZ changed from the man to a woman * Home 2 screen telemetry display function The Home 2 screen telemetry display function has been refined to display more information. In addition to the current measured value, the display also indicates the minimum and maximum values. * Variometer melody function When using a variometer, the T18MZ offers the option of incorporating a tonal indication of the aircraft's rate of ascent or descent. * GPS display function This function allows some GPS units to be compatible with Futaba's GPS unit (SBS-01G). * Data reset screen This update allows the user to separately reset the information for user menus and telemetry data, if desired. For example, it is now possible to reset the telemetry information without impacting the other model programming. * Camera function shutter switch This update allows the user to assign a switch/position to control the camera function of the T18MZ. * Maximum engine revolution display by each condition It is now possible to display maximum engine revolutions by each condition. * Audible telemetry information In addition to the on-screen telemetry data information, the T18MZ now has the ability to audibly indicate the aircraft status. * Telemetry display units setting The telemetry display units can now be set to metric system or Imperial system. * Timer function This update to the T18MZ incorporates vibration alerts that notify the modeler when the programmed time limits have been reached. * Touch panel lock function To prevent any unwanted or undesired transmitter input, this update incorporates touch panel locking functions. * S.BUS servo setting screen It is now possible to check servo operation at the S.BUS servo setting screen. |

NEW: * Voltage display function This function allows some voltage sensor units to be compatible with Futaba's voltage sensor unit (SBS-01V). * The voice of T18MZ The voice of T18MZ changed from the man to a woman

Hi Steve,
I would like to know if it would be possible to put in suggestions to futaba for upgrades. I wanted to know if they could implement a color bitmap screen where you can input the color that you want instead of choosing the default ones, that way you can set the background color to whatever you like. |
