DX7 with Phoenix problem

[Shay Kavanagh]

Hi everyone, just having a bit of trouble

My Throttle hold switch is not picked up in Phoenix, i have also had to change aux2 input to f.mod on dx7 to get the flight mode swithc to work. Is this normal and is there a way to get around this?

thanks

Have you activated Throttle Hold in the Spektrum for that model memory?

It isn't going to show up in the sim as a moving switch I would have thought unless you use the keyboard command for it as the effect is internal to the radio.

Hi Shay

I also asked this question when I first started using my DX7 on Phoenix.

The best way is to program the flight modes and throttle hold in the DX7 instead of on Phoenix. Just calibrate the channels in Phoenix, set a keyboard key for the throttle hold and another for idle up. (You won't use these keys, its just to make sure that they do not interfere with other settings.)

Then programme your DX7 for throttle hold as per the manual, then set your DX7 throttle curves for each of your flight modes. Works great and also transfers across to the real thing when you need to.

This way you get more practise in programming your DX7 for the real thing.

The only downside is that the switches on the onscreen Tx do not move when in Idle Up or Throttle Hold.
