  • In this video Tom Explains to our fellow RC enthusiasts how to use the updated Spektrum PC Programmer to Import preset model files on to your Smart AS3X Receivers! This allows you to easily setup Safe and AS3X on popular PNP (Plug and Play) E-Flite and Hangar 9 models. Follow along to learn more about this easy to use feature.
    These instructions apply to the Smart AS3X and SAFE receivers AR637T, AR637TA, AR630, AR631, AR8360T and AR10360T.

    This does work! I just took the receiver from a crashed RV7 that a kid sold me, and installed it in an old Maule M7 I bought used. By old I mean it came with an Admiral Receiver. So no AS3X or Safe. Hence the reason I wanted to install a new receiver. I just finished installing the Maule M7 software on the previously RV7 AR631 Receiver. I’ll update this after I maiden it.

    • @SpektrumRCvideos
      @SpektrumRCvideos  Před 2 lety +2

      For the most part yes. The files available are the exact same preset as if it was coming from a BNF model. So if the model you are importing the file of has SAFE/AS3X then yes it will have SAFE/AS3X. Hope that helps!

    Hello, I am having some difficulty in setting up (without Forward programming) as I have an older spektrum radio. How can I use the programming cable connected to my pc to setup receiver orientation and gains? I have a MRC spitfire that I would like to use this receiver in. Currently I can setup AR636 but when I select AR637T I only see a few options to rename model but no way to get into programming mode? Thanks.

    This video is very helpful, thanks! I bought a replacement AR631 for an AeroScout and wondered why AS3X and SAFE didn't work. I didn't see it in the manual, but it would be nice if Spektrum included some of this info in the new Rx packaging for other modelers in the same situation. Again, thanks for this video!

    If I want to use a receiver on several different airplanes, can I store several preset models on the receiver at the same time or do I have to load only one preset model and when I move the receiver to another airplane, I have to load the correct preset model for the second plane which wipes out the first preset model that was loaded?
    What if the second airplane doesn't have a preset model to load? How do I delete the preset model that's on the receiver?
    What happens if the load the correct preset model on the transmitter and the receiver has no preset model installed or has the wrong preset model install?

    • @SpektrumRCvideos
      @SpektrumRCvideos  Před 2 lety +2

      There really isn't anything that you are "programming" here, just selecting a model preset. ALL programming is done via forward programming on the transmitter. There is literally nothing you can program with the PC Programmer on the Smart Receivers at this time, only updates and importing/exporting presets.

    If you set up a receiver with SAFE mode selected, but have to invert one of the outputs because the flight surface its operating opposite of what it should, does SAFE understand this and will it give the correct output to counteract a wind gust or axis change?

    There is no preset file for my Spitfire EFL8650 in the directory for the AR637T. I could not find an AR636A or B that came in the plane (which went out) as they are out of stock everywhere. Will the AR636 Preset model file import and work in the AR637T and if not can you send me the correct file. I'm a fairly new pilot and not up to speed on forward programming yet and on a nice plane I do not want to risk crashing it (which is why I purchased the BNF model to start with). It's hard for me to believe I spent 40 more dollars over the price of a AR638 on the AR637T and there is no preset file for a lot of models to import to it.
