AR7200BX with remote

[dw45]

I am thinking of putting a AR7200BX into a 90 size heli, I see it recommends fitting a remote DSMX receiver and not to use a DSM2 one, will this be any use as I use a DSX9 which is a DSM2 transmitter.
Thanks in advance.

Dsmx satalite needed will be fine with your transmitter.

Will required extra sat, for that size model. dsmx will work but 22ms frame rate instead of 11ms as dsmx tx

11ms is not a DSM2 vs DSMX issue, remember that Spektrum introduced 11ms with the DX7SE which was of course a DSM2 TX.

The DSX9 though is 22ms only but will work just fine with DSMX receivers.

The restriction to use only a DSMX satellite applies to any DSMX receiver, they should never be used with a DSM2 satellite.

Just setting my 600N up with AR7200BX and see that the old DSM2 sat is not lit up - and therefore I presume not working. Is this because of this compatability issue? I'm assuming I must have a DSMX sat. (am using a DX8 anyway)
Thanks

Yes, you must use a DSMX satellite with the AR7200BX.

The fact that the DSM2 satellite is not lit up could also be something like a faulty cable, but regardless, it should not be used with that receiver.

the dms2 sat will def not light up . it is not compatable ,
has to be dsmx
