Upgrades

Spektrum DX8

Spektrum DX8

He He everyone loves upgrades. Today I went out to test my new Naza GPS and 4S batteries, which meant I changed from 10 inch props to 8 inch props. I got to the garage and plugged the battery in and went to to the transmitter on and it just beeped at me “ERR”, not what I was expecting. This has happened a couple of times now and I have to change all the settings in the transmitter. Most of the setting are done on the PC through the DJI Naza Assistant, and you forget about the few, but very important settings that must be changed on the transmitter in order for it to work. I read the manual and they have talked about a button battery being embedded deep in the guts of the transmitter, so I thought about pulling it apart, and then I thought even if I do find and get this battery out, the provability of finding one of these batteries today … Not likely. So I went option B … A new transmitter, a Spektrum DX8, it’s pretty mad and works well with the quad. So now I have a spare transmitter (that I can take my time with to repair it) which I will be using for my white prop plane and my electric jet (which still hasn’t had a successful maiden voyage yet).
