  • DX8 Rudder channel screwed

    Last time I used my DX8 was last thursday night, and it was fine, no problems at all. Took it out of the case today and the rudder channel was doing some very odd things. I noticed that the gyro was flashing as if it were receiving an input, and the tail servo was jittering back and forth. Went to the monitor screen and the rudder channel was showing about 10 clicks worth of left trim (no trim or subtrim used), and was flickering left and right slightly (-3 to -10 points ish), and when the collective was moved up and down, it got worst, jumping -3 to -30 odd. It was totally unflyable, but luckily I was able to borrow use of Swashbucklers DX8 and transferred my model memory over without issue and i was away.

    I should just add that I checked a blank memory and all other memories and it does it on all. It will go back to Horizon monday, but to say I'm unimpressed is an understatement!

      Check the details for returning the radio for the 'vibration alert' problem and you'll see a free Fedex shipping number, I might be inclined to use that in the circumstances ...
