    I have watched lots of videos on this subject, and this is the most straight forward one. Thanks a lot, it was really helpful!

    Thank you for this great info. It is just a bit dated as the new Taranis QX7 has different menus in some places but was easy to follow along. Thanks!

    Thanks for doing a great video with all visable. Was easy to follow along
    The JR bay in the back will hold my TBS crossfire module. For my extended FPV rc Summit's radio link I need for my channel.
    Thanks again for making it a bit easier. I didn't even try to fiddle around before I watched.

    • @Coolarj10
      @Coolarj10 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@rtony209 yeah it was up and running great! My one recommendation would be to update the firmware as soon as you get it. My power button would flicker even after turning it off, firmware update solved it. Good luck with your application!

    • @FPVEvilMunkey
      @FPVEvilMunkey  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a module bay for like the TBS Crossfire system, or a multi protocol module.

    Thanks Michael. I'm a noobie to the hobby and as you know there's a HuGH learning curve this this awesome hobby. In fact enough to put more grey hair on my already grey head. If you can, i would love more dumb details. Lol. I know it may be boring to some, but for the new guy it's life altering. Lol. Also can save marriages. Lol. Ie, actually going threw the download process of open tx, step by step unziping, making folder etc, binding a model, osd commands and how to do them lol etc etc thx again for the video. New sub and looking forward to your content.

    If you lift the battery tray out, you can plug and unplug the power jack before you remove the back casing.

    'you go in and mess with those...' -is that telling us anything? ' you go all back up again and hit 'select' but your hitting 'exit'. -whatever.
    I just found that I have 2.3.11 -a lot different. You should say what version of OpenTx your working with.

    Hey dude, I need help. I have a Taranis Q X7 controller, which worked perfectly for months. But a problem just appeared, when the sticks are centered, it shows on the screen that they are actually not, they're at about a 2.5 degree angle, both of them. This affects flying pretty badly, do you know how I could fix this ?

    Ok, I've been trying to search how to power on the Taranis without having to press and hold, but have no luck.
    You seem to be able to just click on the button and your Taranis switches on immediately, is there some sort of configuration I need to set?
    I have a Taranis Q X7S.

    • @FPVEvilMunkey
      @FPVEvilMunkey  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Should be the same setup as mine. Try reaching out to FrSky directly.

    • @calv83
      @calv83 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, actually got the answer to why a few weeks back. Basically the latest OpenTX firmware forces you to hold the power, whereas one of the older firmwares allows you to just press the power without holding it down to turn on or off.
