  • In this EdgeTX video, I'll show you what it's like to use the brand new EdgeTX Touch UI Interface to make a model. There is nothing meaningful about the model setup itself. The intention is to show how the touch UI has changed the way we interact with the radio and how the UI changes have improved touch accuracy.

    I did noticed that in the special functions when you selected a track, it did not give you a preview of the track sound. It would be nice to hear the track when you are setting it without having to get out of the special track mode!

But it certainly presents a problem, sadly. Be great know what to do next🤔

    • @RCVideoReviews
      @RCVideoReviews  Před rokem

      If you are 100% sure you have a bind, and you 100% have movement in your monitor on OUTPUTS (not just mixer), the only two other possibilities I can think of are the servo wire is flipped or the servos are bad.

      I've had a handful of EM's and some issues with USB. It's just generally not appropriate to fly with firmware in this stage of development. You take your model in your own hands if you do.

    why after updating the tx16s to version 2.8 does the touch not work as before? it seems as if it is enchanted, if I move the sticks it works immediately, as soon as I try again it doesn't work, while in version 2.7.1 it worked perfectly

    Why would one turn extended limits on for quads?? When I got into the tx16s and quads a lot of tutorials told us to just turn on extended limits, so I did... But I never really knew why. Or if I need it on

    • @RCVideoReviews
      @RCVideoReviews  Před 2 lety +1

      Extended limits is to enable more mechanical throw on a servo for some reason. It generally shouldn't be used. I also believe DSMx has a built-in limit of 80% pulsewidth and extended limits allows you to overcome that limit and gain access to the full mechanical limits of the servo when using that protocol--but I'm not completely sure of this. At 100%, the range is only 1100 to 1900 vs 1000 to 2000 @ 125%.
      From the MPM DSM Page:
      A range of -100% to 100% will give an output range of 1100µs to 1900µs
      A range of -125% to 125% will give an output range of 1000µs to 2000µs

    • @RCVideoReviews
      @RCVideoReviews  Před 2 lety

      The main branch is the development branch. When the final is released it will be forked as a release version 2.8.0. So the answer is no, do not use the main branch version for production radios unless you are experimenting/helping with development/acting as a troubleshooter. Wait until you see EdgeTX "Flying Dutchman" v2.8.0 unless you want to take the risk of using a pre-release.
