DSMX Not Binding?

[Angelos]

Did you try forcing a DSMX tx into DSM2 mode?

I was able to get similar results to Dave's using my DSMX satellites with a DX8 forced to DSM2 mode.

I think I did but I don't have my notes with me. You are right it seems to be an issue of DSMX sats not binding with DSM2 modulation. In any case, if your radio supports DSMX and you have DSMX sats there is no reason to force it on DSM2. Also DSM2 sats bind fine with DSM2 radio.

Agreed, I was forcing DSM2 mode purely for testing as I didn't have a DSM2 TX available.

I've tested all possible combinations using waveydavey's DSMX sats and my collection of Spektrum radios. I was only able to reproduce his binding issue with my DX7 and his DSMX sats. My own DSMX sats work fine. I am continuing to investigate. In the meantime I would advice that you do a range check even if all appears ok during binding.

Angelos, Thank you for your continuous research & development,
As I'm using a JR9 tx (DSM2) I'm going to set up with DSM2 sats until you reveal you findings,
Just a note to other users of the vortex, as far as I know this issue only arises sometimes when using a DSM2 tx with a DSMX sat rx's.
