Is this without a governor Sacko?

The issue i used to face when i was running spektrum (on a dsx9 and flybarred heli) was how to control the switchglo from a seven channel receiver - all your channels are spoken for! I patched into the gov channel (on a y lead or from the low voltage output on an ar7100) and activated the switchglo from the lowest speed position. I could equally have used the gyro gain channel and had the rate mode setting be your switchglo on position. Looks like the v bar system allows you to work this much more neatly though.

This was running the gov.

You could have used channel 1 (throttle) for the gov, then used your throttle curve values define your 'set headspeeds' in the software.

... Freeing up a channel for the Switchglo

Good thinking! Never thought of that! It'd be a bit scary not having any throttle curve back up though. How often do governors fail though. Not yet in 5 years for me .... touching any nearby wooden object!

You could use Bank Switching.

So;

Normal curve - Run off the curves
Idle 1 - Goverend
Idle 2 - Run off the curves

..or just flick back in to normal mode again.

Ok here is an odd thing I am using the new pc software V 5.2 5 and have the gov set to "Nitro combined" but when I go in to my "Receiver" screen aux 2 is moving with the aileron channel !!!????

This is with or without the switch glow plugged in !!! Yet in my mix monitor (tx) all is working as it should be ,....

Errr help please sacko ,.. Thank you

Oh using a dsx11 TX and V5.2 4 pro v baaaaaa

Also just to check my gov now runs off a flat line throttle curve like an electric :-)

Thanks again xxxx Rachel

Strange. Can you post a screen shot of your channel assignments?

**Stuart** · 16-04-2012, 05:23 PM

Here are my screens....

Basically the throttle servo from the RX (CH3) goes into the Aux channel in the Vbar
