I was wondering the same thing for the rings, more importantly thanks to your tutorials Open Tx is starting to make sense and is helping to piece together the functions and navigate around the system. I never thought I would get my old head around it, getting there with your help, Cheers
It always make me smile when I know the videos I'm putting out are helping people. Thanks for taking the time to write. Keep on it, you'll get it worked out.

This is excellent. I feel like this should be the second video you see on OpenTX/EdgeTX - start with the stuff that makes it fun.
Excellent videos on the TX16S. Super helpful, professional, concise, and respectful.
Much appreciated!
I love your complete tx16s open tx videos,i have short term memory loss from too many knock outs since i was a kid to yeah too many to list and no i do not fight!but im alwayys returning to you or 2 others ,yoour vids are rthe complete guide in depth and understandable.i really appreceate all the time and effort making these videos,well done ..so here i am again looks like movie night with youn my radio..lol..one day i will learn how to fly better seems like i spend more time setting up my quad n radio!
Wow, Finally a great video on how to setup flight modes using the 6 position Switch. Works in Edge TX as well. I have been trying to find how to use this switch on my TX16S for a while now.
Thank you
Glad it helped!
Bought TX16s. Without your tutorials, I would not know how to do anything with it. The user manual just is not enough.
Using OpenTx after using proprietary radios is akin to switching fro Windows to Linux. Your videos are invaluable Many thanks,
I'm very happy to know my videos are helping you. Thanks for the nice comment.
It’s mind blowing! Thanks a lot for all your videos
You're very welcome.
Great video, I can now see the true power of flight modes!
Awesome!
Another great video, very helpfull, thanks John👍
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching.
Great video. At the age of 72, wished I had started learning OpenTX sooner. Your videos are a great help in discovering helpful tips to configure my airplanes.
Thanks for the comment. Have fun with OpenTx. Some people get a little annoyed at what I believe to be the transition process because it's a lot to take in; but, once you get the hang of things this radio is just a big playground with lots of rides.
@@RCVideoReviews I am finding that out. A whole lot of fun to use my mind figuring out OpenTX. Makes me wish I was 20 years younger. Keep giving us those great videos for OpenTX.
@@williamcox3852 I will. Did you find the playlists? czcams.com/play/PLy3TC1ILJYTjqDXFB84oXVWZG14zyMYYt.html

@@RCVideoReviews Yes I did find them. I am now watching them. Lots of valuable information in them. Thanks for sharing.
@@williamcox3852 Sure thing. Have fun. If I knew then what I know now, my models would be setup a little different.
Great video. I just like flying but your videos have really inspired me to understand and use the open tx fully.
Man, it is really awesome to hear this. You've got the spirit of these videos. They're all meant to show you how the software works. Once you do some of that experimentation, you'll be able to create real solutions for your setups.
Hearing my work "inspired" somebody to learn is a great reward for the effort. Thank you.
@@RCVideoReviews I agree with the above post. Your videos help me take maximum advantage of the incredible features of this radio, and challenge my brain. It's much like coding a computer because of the logic involved. I'll never get bored of flying R/C with you churning out these fantastic videos. You've inspired me to become a Patreon, thank you!
Nice! Just got my TX16 MK II. Been using Open TX and Edge TX on other radios before, but just with copters which are mostly configured in the FC.
For fixed wing, I was still using Spektrum. Now I have to learn that part too. I must say, it is a littler more fiddly, but there are much more options.
Once you get to the point where you understand the control loop (Inputs->Mix->Output) the whole radio gets a lot easier. Just try different things and you'll get there.
Just a quick note John. I followed your video and did the whole modification within EdgeTX Companion 2.8.4 with no issues. Since it is 2 years since you posted this video and the fact that you were then using OpenTX, it appears that the previous problems within Companion have been resolved. Thanks for your great videos.
You're welcome. Thanks for the comment.
had to watch it twice, but makes perfect sense. thank you so much! can't wait for weather to improve to try these things out ;)
You got this!
These are the best tutorials! Thanks
Thank you and you’re welcome.
great video. i am going to try this but using the 3 position switch for my GV rates and expo instead of the 6p
Excellent and helpful video.
Glad it was helpful!
This is good stuff; I've managed to make a mess of my model templates with all the walkthroughs you're pushing out. This seems like a more simple option as long as I can find the right button in flight.
FYI: You can use ANY switch you want. Before these radios started shipping with 6 button switches, we used to use the 9 position matrix setup for flight modes. I've flown Eagletree, Ardupilot, and Arkbird using the two switch method. This 6 position switch is super easy.
Did you watch this: czcams.com/video/Ci4vbOoxEf4/video.html
Think about putting that technique in place with flight modes. You could have the flight mode button announce the mode, then the T5 or T6 switch ENGAGE the mode.
@@RCVideoReviews I did watch that one and my brain is still recovering but I think I get the idea, may play with it to find what works best.
I was driving to the store today thinking, "You should have made the flight mode video using the arm/execute technique" I may do that video as a follow-up.
That matrix thing isn't that hard. Try putting it into Excel and it will help you "see it"

Hi John,
Thanks for your support: Flight modes control with the 6 pos. switch proves much better than the logic switch approach you made in the past. Strong point is the minimum and maximum value setting. I build now for each plane a 6pos program. And it becomes nearly imposable to create a situation in which one channel does not operate in a certain mode or switch setting
First I used two 3 position switches to control logic switches which control the Fly modes. In a certain switch position elevator did not operate. But I found it in the simulator. Thumbs up for the Open TX / Companion developers. By the way I made my first Github wondering around. After machine languages 8085 processor Abt and mini Abt, MSDOS 3.2 and follow ups I am probably left to long out of the programming business.
Last remark it could be helpful for the newbie’s to guide them through your video OpenTX/Compagnion tutorials by giving each video tutorial a number. Some newbie’s ask themselves now: was buying an OpenTX transmitter the right choice for me?
Greetings Guus
I made the logic design thinking the radio didn't handle the 6p switch correctly, but the radio does fine with it. It was companion that has the issue. I arranged the beginner playlist in the best possible order. The Intermediate/Advanced videos have no particular order.
Sorry John I did not check after I got the question.
Brilliant video series.
Thanks.
Thanks for sharing, I need to learn much as I can about OpenTX...cheers! 🤠👍
Any time!
👌a perfect description, thnx
You’re welcome.
Thank you for your broad answer! I‘ll try that and will give you an answer.
You're welcome.
OpenTX is quite advanced and powerful. I enjoy watching your videos and i have preordered a TX16S. Now we need you to do a helicopter setup video for flybarless - i use MSH Brain/iKON gyros. I have already made pictures of my fleet and custom splash-screen. Keep up the good work.
You should join us on Discord and find Freddie: discord.gg/jSFTASU
He's your helicopter guy and he runs OpenTx too. I would be useless offering suggestions on helo setups.
I fly helis, but I can see this transfer to helis quite readily. Great stuff!
Awesome! I hope it helps. Thank you.
Will this setup work with helis?
Great videos, very helpful. So far so good! But one of the strongest reasons to use open TX is because it is multi-protocol. Unfortunately, almost nobody addresses this side of the coin. How do you determine whether the protocol you need is supported? How do you determine what protocol your drone is using? How and where do you set up a specific protocol? Perhaps you can put together another video covering this often ignored capability of open TX and the TX16s radio. Thanks for the great work and keep them coming!
The MPM page on Github lists supported protocols: github.com/pascallanger/DIY-Multiprotocol-TX-Module/blob/master/Protocols_Details.md
There are way way way too many variables on protocols to be able to fit them into any sort of video. i.e. CZcamsr would have to buy a quad/drone/plane using each protocol.
Your best bet is to bookmark that list and check it against your quad/drone and try to bind with it.
Excellent
Thanks
Not sure if anyone else has tried this but for I while ive been using speacial functions that use switch postions to overide ch5 (Flight mode ch) by selected values....thats the cool thing with open TX....so many ways to skin a cat...
I kinda just skimmed though this video because in the fbl units I use on helicopters fm’s are already in the software and much easier to setup but this is surely valuable information.
Yeah, it's a neat configuration plan for planes. I wish I knew how to do this before I setup so many planes.
How do I get open tx companion? Your videos are great and help me so much.
Can you please make a flightmode trim video? I like to have a trim mode for when gear is down versus gear up and flight modes would help. I'm coming from spektrum though so I'm confused by this on tx16s and many others are on the forums.
Can I ask how you got the anodised rings around the gambels? Awesome videos by the way
They are 3D printed parts. Here's the link: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4493751
Thanks for the comment :)
Hi there, your videos are extremely useful for setting my radio up, the learning curve was quite steep but now its all getting quite straight forward. One question though, none of my models have control surface weights that are equal in both directions eg aileron differential, I have set them up in the Outputs section to be that way. How can I incorporate those settings into what you have shown in this video? Thanks!
Outputs are the last thing you apply to the calculation of inputs/mix/output endpoints before signals are sent to the radio. If you're asking how to change differential using a GVAR, you just follow the same process I showed for weight/expo. Remove the differential from outputs and in your mixer utilize differential with a GVAR as the variable.
Hello Rc video,, I have a question but first thank you for helping the community with this tutorials 👍🏻👍🏻 excellent,, now my question I’m thinking and getting this radio do you think this will control my WL toys drone and Syma drones???
This link lists all protocols supported by the MPM inside the radio. You have to check your drones against this list:
github.com/pascallanger/DIY-Multiprotocol-TX-Module/blob/master/Protocols_Details.md
I suspect most will bind, but you have to check.
Hello,
I am a fan of your CZcams channel. Already seen several videos about the rc transmitter Radiomaster TX16s.
But now I have a question about the binding of a small drone of which I do not know the 2.4 protocol. How can I find out or how can the bond be established?
Kind regards, Casper van Beek
Thanks for the comment. We'll need to know more in order to answer your question. i.e. What drone is it? What receiver does it have? You should probably join our Discord server: discord.gg/jSFTASU Someone will probably be able to help you there.
I was following your great tutorial setting up global variables. Have set them exactly like you but on the main page, when pressing 6P button they don't change anything including FM name?
Verify the flight modes use 6p1 or 6p2 or 6p3 for the switch. Press 6p1 or 2 or 3 while watching the FM screen. To validate your weights/expos are being used, fire up the channel monitor, hold stick to one side, activate different flight modes. You should see the output change according to the weight assigned to the mode. If you aren't seeing FM name on the main screen make sure on the telemetry page you're using flight mode is checked and that you put the name in flight mode. Lastly, don't know what firmware you're on, but upgrade.
I've just verified this configuration on OTX and EdgeTx and it works on both.
John, great, great video. At time 18:23 appears briefly the Logical switch screen, do you use it? Regards
That logical switch configuration was a leftover from the 54 switch video. I do use logical switches regularly though.
@@RCVideoReviews Ok, I thought I was losing something of your explanation.. Re
gards
with the trim function in the flight modes page, could you that with inav? i thought that flight controllers dont like external trim being applied? Thanks
I don't understand the question.
I tried this flight modes with global variables GV1 and GV2, but it conflicts with the RAM (rudder/aileron mix) which you showed us on one of your previous videos where you used GV1 for RAM (mix) and controlled with the RS slider.
You can use any GV# you want. There are 9 of them.
Hi. I am wondering if with the new wave of transmitters in the market someone has set openTX v 2.3.10 for a heli with this features: nitro, CCPM 120 (requires command directly to the servos, not thru gyro), expos and throttle trim on.
For now, I was able to adapt CCPM configuration for the Taranis (that is in the OpenTx university) in a MiniTitan, but I think there are still some missing issues to fully exploit the new transmitter, the way a simple Futaba 7C can be configured to fulfill the configuration of a nitro heli as described above.
You should check in with Freddie on the RCVR Discord Server: discord.gg/jSFTASU
Bloody H*ll.... Love your easy to understand explanations... Will be doing this from now on.
BTW... A question. I set up an Eachine Mini Mustang on the internal Module and it works. The problem is that with only 30% stick throws I get full deflection of the control surfaces. How do I change the radio setup to give me full deflection with 100% stick throws.
Set stick weights to 100% and set the weight in your mixer lower or set the min/max in outputs lower.
The path of travel is INPUTS - MIXER - OUTPUTS.
@@RCVideoReviews That is basically what I've done in the Mixer. Was curious if there was another way. Thanks for replying.
Try it in outputs too.
Great Video. Thanks. I've been using modes on my Spekky radio and am about to program a sail plane into my JumperT16, and I wanted to used to use flight modes. I was confused about what Mode0 meant, but if I understood your video correctly, Mode0 is the default/fall-back mode if no flight mode is defined by the current switch position(s). So, you'd probably setup up Mode0 to be a middle of the road mode (depending on how one was using modes), right? I think that I know the answer to this but I'll ask anyway. In each mode, the trim setting are set and stored, totally independent of the trim settings in the other modes (unless you chose 'add trims to Mode_ trims.'), right?
Flight modes can be used to change trim behaviors, but the trims aren't necessarily exclusive. i.e. You can say use FM0 trims + FM3 trims, or you can say use FM3 trims only. It depends on what you want. But yes, Flight modes predominantly allow you to isolate trim behavior. There are other things you can do to. i.e. You can apply a mix or input in certain flight modes only. Say on a glider, you want the slider to be crow braking while landing, but flaps when flying. You could have a landing flight mode that invokes a mix for the slider to manipulate crow and a soaring flight mode that invokes a mix for the slider to manipulate flaps. There are also global variable applications in Flight Modes that go into depth beyond what this little chat box should be used to discuss.
If I have a mode assigned to each flap position (say, using Switch SE) and had Speed Mode and Thermalling Mode (where I reflex or camber the ailerons and flaps) using the 6-position switch, what would happen if I triggered two modes using switches SE and the 6-position at the same time?
Hi there, firstly thank you very much for your very informative tutorials, I've found a couple in your playlist which have taught me stuff I needed to know, so my question is this, I have a runcam split in the long range 7 inch quad which uses 3 switches to take advantage of all the functionality of the device (One switch for wifi on/off, one switch to change the modes and one switch to start stop recording, and these all have a use when paging and selecting various things off the OSD Menu) myi'm also using a TBS Micro RX (Only have 12 channels), however, the limitation isn't the Recieved, its that the radiomaster 16S only have a limited amount of 2/3 position switches which I already use all of for the various peripherals and modes like GPS Rescue etc, Lost model buzzer etc .... is there a way I can create 3 custom logical switches to use as the switching for the runcam split??
Logical switches can be used in the mixer which means they can be used to create an outbound event. The question you'll have to answer is how will you trigger the logical switch? You'll have to find a way to create a condition using logic (or hardware) to activate a logical switch.
@@RCVideoReviews thanks for the prompt reply brother, yeah it's nothing I can't live with out to be fair, I have the runcam split set to start auto recording when it's plugged in, and the menu can be reached through the onboard buttons on the mainboard, it would just have been nice to be able to start and stop the recording through a switch .. I'm all out of physical switches though .. there are always too few switches for a long range craft lol ... I'm a switch kinda guy!
John, I am using three flight modes assigned to switch SE with two GV (1 and 2) for weight and expo, very similar to what you showed us in your video. My plane is capable of using flaperons because it has two servos in the wing, so I also programmed that function using switch SB, so I can choose any combination of flight mode with flaps position. The question is, how can be added another GV to simplify the adjustments of the weight in the flaps for the usual positions: flaps up (no mixing necessary), flaps down (about 15°) and flaps down (about 25°)? Regards
"The question is, how can be added another GV to simplify the adjustments of the weight in the flaps for the usual positions"
I think you just repeat what you did with SE. You can use all the GVARs you want, you can create up to 64 inputs, and you can use all the switches you want to activate/deactivate. So if you already have a working GVAR setup for SE to set Weight and Expo, you can just repeat that process for SB.
FYI: Just to mess with you, you can create GVARS that track other GVARS too...
@@RCVideoReviews That is the question, John¡¡¡ I had to use another switch, so flaps work independent from flight modes (in switch SE).
Wow. Nice video. As a retired computer programmer I am loving my TX16S and have just started digging into it. The Global Variables video was great. I have just started flying and own two Volantex planes. I was wondering how to program flight modes on the TX and this was just the thing. One question though, these planes have stabilization which is turned off in expert mode. I see how to program the flight modes now but can't find anything on turning on and off the stabilization. I'm wondering if it's even a good idea. Thanks. Jerry Chicago.
Stabilization configurations are highly dependent on the stabilizer brand. You'll need to dig into the manual to find out what channel turns the stabilizer on and off and use a mixer line on Edge/OpenTX to correlate with the channel specified in the manual. Whether or not it's a good idea to turn the stab off is dependent on your skills and what you need from a stab. My personal preference is to teach people to fly without a stab first.
@@RCVideoReviews Thanks for the reply. I also wanted to say that I've been digging through everything I can find on CZcams on TX16S and I must say that your videos are the best. You're a very good teacher with very concise with clear instructions. Thanks.
I need help programming my tx16s for eflight v22 osprey
Strange thing happen to me.
In the INPUT edit window. When I move the joystick the crosshair doesn't follow the curve. It just goes from left to right in straight line. What's wrong ?
In other model that odd doesn't happen.
Is this something to do with my aileron differential ?
2.3.10 introduced that bug. 2.3.9 doesn't have it. The developers are aware of it.
@@RCVideoReviews is it save if I want to roll back the firmware version to the previous one ? Is it just like how I would do with newest firmware installation ?
It should be safe to roll back. If I were you I would make a copy of the sd card first.
Can anyone tell me what TRSS stands for? When I set it up in widgets it had a value of 51. No idea what it's used for or if I need it. Appreciate any help! Al

Hi John, Umm, random question, completely unrelated to this video topic, but I keep meaning to ask. Do you own a Jumper T16? If you do, can you see if the whole rear panel of the T16 pro will fit on the back of the Radiomaster TX16S please. I'm asking as I wonder if it would fit as I'd like to get rid of those big grips that the TX16S has on the back panel. I know it won't be a direct fit because of the SD card socket cut outs and I/O pins on the TX16S that the T16 doesn't have, but I could cut those holes / slots if it will fit otherwise.
I do not own a T16. The TX16s was my first radio from this line of radios. I know the TX16s only has 4 screws holding the backplate on and my T18 has 6.
@@RCVideoReviews Thanks for your quick reply John. You are right, the T16 has six screws like the T18, but I believe the are in the same places a the ones in the TX16S, it's just that Radiomaster don't use the middle two screw mounts in their design. I'll maybe ask the question on RCG or Helifreak, see anybody there knows. Cheers!!
The TX16s also has a much bigger battery tray and the battery connectors are in different places. The TX16s has the battery connected all the way at the bottom. The T16/T18 SD card is near the middle of the compartment. The TX16s SD card on the bottom of the radio.
@@RCVideoReviews Yeah, I know, but like you, I use 18650's so either battery tray is OK for me, and as I mentioned in my previous post, I don't mind cutting holes or slots out of the base of the rear panel to fit the SD card slot and I/O pins the TX16S has. Battery connector would be an issue though, that might be hard to get around, I'll need to look at pics of both more closely to get a better idea of whether that knocks the idea on the head right there, it might do! EDIT:- I've compared pics of both the Jumper T16 and the Radiomaster TX16S and the battery connector looks to be in a very similar place on both transmitters. It is much higher up in the Jumper T18 though!
Pretty dam interesting. I can see why"propeller heads" like this transmitter. Can't see why I would want any other box, when this one is so programmable, and so reasonable in price. Think I will go with OpenTX and not EdgeTx. Edge seems like it's put out by the radio maker to show off some of "it''s" hardware, and not really making the box work better. But then I could be wrong. I think you have moved to Edge, but tell me why in a video.
The manufacturers have nothing to do with the production of EdgeTX other than to supply the developers with hardware for testing. I switched to EdgeTX because it’s making actual progress where OpenTx is mostly stymied.
@@RCVideoReviews Still think I will go with OpenTX. Edge seems like a new "gee wiss" toy. Like putting lipstick on a pig.
How about editing the titles on your OpenTX videos and putting numbers in them to say this is 1, 2, 3, and so on. That way people can start at the beginning and follow along. I know I will use all the videos to setup my TX12 when I get it.
A apriciate your very professional videos a lot. But I have a question that seems not being answered in another video: I have a switch for deactivation of my Gyro. That switch activates also a flight mode. With that flight mode I change the Expo in the mixer. So far so good. When I added a switch for dual rates (in Inputs) I got the problem that 70% weight in the Input Leads to just 59% in the Output. Because the Expo curve ist just ´cutted´. Do you understand and could you please give my a suggestion? That would be great!
"70% weight in the Input Leads to just 59% in the Output. Because the Expo curve ist just ´cutted´"
1) 70% weight in input gives 70% weight in output. You need to start there. Remove all expo, remove all trim, remove all offsets, remove all differentials and get your radio to show you 70% weight on input and output.
2) I have no idea what you mean when you say the Expo curve isn't "cutted" Expo only changes the curve around midpoints, it does not change the overall weight. A weight of 50% is a weight of 50% regardless of what I do with expo. Expo only changes the output rates as you approach and depart center.
3) If you have one switch activating a gyro, and a flight mode, and a weight, and an expo and you can't figure it out, start stripping things away. Take some of those layers out and build your configuration one step at a time. Make sure when you add one thing it doesn't break the prior thing.
So, I reproduced my problem: whenever I set the weight in Inputs and Expo in the Mixes the weight also changes. 70 is then not 70 any more. I tried that with a fresh model. I do that in Mixes because I want different Expo with the flight modes. And the Dual Rates I switch in Inputs. May that causes my problem...
Weights and expo changes belong in the Inputs screen. You should watch this video: czcams.com/video/WmnZM5veAiE/video.html
Whatever you do in Inputs gets fed to mixes then mixes takes a swing. Whatever you do in Mixes gets fed to Outputs and outputs takes a swing. So the final input value is operated on by mix changes. The final mix value is operated on my the outputs.
You can use the same flight mode switch on the input screen as you're using on the mix screen to select weights/expo. You don't need to move them to mixes.
Great support, thanx a lot from Germany!!!
You’re welcome.
Is it possible to do, with the push of a button, turn the sticks in the transmitter in the other direction? Suppose I fly in normal mode, left stick moves up a full throttle, right stick down the plane lifts nose and so on. After I press the button the stick mode is reversed, a left stick moves up a zero throttle, a right stick down the plane lowers the nose and so on.
I would probably set that up in a mixer. Switch up is normal. Switch down and the weights for both channels are inverted.
i.e. If your throttle mix line on channel 3 has a weight of 100, set a switch in the mix SA up. Then add a line below the throttle on channel 3 with a weight of -100 and a switch SA down. That should do it.
@@RCVideoReviews I tried, when I change the weight to (-100) in the mix, the effect of the weight is eliminated, as if I did not move the stick at all. This is how I saw on the "channels monitor" screen,
How do I set up my TX16S for Futaba FASST recievers..
FASST isn't supported: github.com/pascallanger/DIY-Multiprotocol-TX-Module/blob/master/Protocols_Details.md
I figured out how to adjust your GV in only one flight mode. I set up a logical switch for the flight mode that I want to be able to adjust. Then the special function to adjust the GV works off that logical switch, not ON. This will only work for adjustments to one flight mode, but it means I can tweak my offset for my glider elevator in take off mode, but when I go back to cruise it’s right where I left it. I guess if you used a different physical pot for each adjustment then you could have it work in multiple modes too.
Nice work. I added that to my radio just to see what you were up to. I used a an OR for the logical switch: 6p1 or 6p1 (could have used AND), then that switch for the SF. I still kind of wish the radio would revert to the hard coded value after reloading the model or restarting the radio.
In any case, I think it's awesome you're taking this setup and running with it. Good work.
RC Video Reviews I love this idea. Even on a simple park flyer, the ability to use modes and GV to easily set up dual or triple rates is awesome.
Good video. Can you use stick position to change flight modes. If so could you do a video to show that? Thank you.
Can you elaborate? Are you asking if you can use the Gimbal sticks to change flight modes? Give me an example of what you're thinking.
@@RCVideoReviews Yes that is exactly what I am asking. For my IMAC plane I have a snap condition that is activated at the last 5% of aileron stick travel. You initiate a snap, and the aileron stick at 95% travel activates the condition. It boosts aileron, and reduces rudder and elevator.
Sure, you can do it with Logical switches.
L01 a>x I:AIL 95
That will light L01 when Aileron goes above 95. Set the Flight mode with L01 as the switch.
My god this is too advance.
I tried to indicate this was an advanced setup. There's a lot going on. I've got some good beginner material though: czcams.com/play/PLy3TC1ILJYTjqDXFB84oXVWZG14zyMYYt.html
