Chirping DX8!

[alistair.howie]

So, I was playing about a bit with my DX8 last night, including fiddling with the Aux 3 knob, and now the damn thing is merrily chirping/beeping away at me. Probably about once every 30 seconds it beeps.

I've upgraded to the latest DSMX firmware.

All ideas gratefully received. It's driving me nuts.

Have you set a timer?

[alistair.howie]

Nope! But I've just found out the answer ... should have probably Googled the problem first! Sorry about that.

From someone at the Spektrum development team ... "It was added in 1.04 and listed as a added feature. It supports a user request for a chirp when the [Aux 3] knob is centered. During power-up, the chirp will occur if the knob is centered."

Yet another DX8 issue (beeps and chirps) - RC Groups

Funnily enough I found this myself a little while ago, certainly confused me why the radio was making random bleeps. Then realised I had the knob centred and that caused it. Another great DX8 feature.....

It's a shame about the problems on some sets because this radio has some great features.
