So took my 6hv for sum flights this arvo and plugged in my Y cable from my Rx pack to my 2 srx cables/Sats and managed to plug the servo type
connections around the wrong way, ie pos to neg and neg to pos. I told myself to change them to ec3, this is why. Duh!
Anyway now when I plug everything in my Robird just flashes green leds and my esc wont arm just makes and error beep.. I have tested esc separate on a spare rx and that works fine, but when putting the robird back in Nothing. Would it be safe to say its fried? Are there any tests I can do to test if its actually working?

Have you tried plugging it in to usb and see if the computer recognizes it.

I agree, it may just have blanked the memory in the Robird at best case. Worst case it's borked.

Just plugged it into laptop and seems to be fine. Loading my helis, vibe analyze and performance tabs. Maybe I should try setting it up through a full Rx and robird vs the to srx and sats. What you guys reckon?

I don't think the robird will initialize the esc unless it gets an rx signal . Might be wrong on that chances are it would have burnt the srx adapter before the robird

I thnk u mite b rite Deebee.
I rckn if i run full rx and no srx and sats it mite wrk. Worth a shot

I might have a spare srx adapter, as my robird came with 2 and I only use 1 on my 450.

Well hooked it all up with a full spektrum rx and went through a new setup. On the monitor screen the bar for rudder is maxed at 127, like there is 127 clicks of trim and rudder stick does not respond. Everything else works through the whole setup, until I exit out and NOTHING. no cyclics, nothing working. Im thinking Ive done something to the rudder slot maybe on the robird. My tail servo will change direction and reverse but not actually work.

Well got it to work. Just.
It will work but only with 1 Sat plugged into srx1 with a Tarot sat cable. then my Y harness powering srx2 and moto/ele to esc.
I tried a full rx and still had no tail. Weird i know,.
i will be moving robird to my 450 where one sat will be enuf, wudnt use it on any larger bird.
