just got a Spektrum Flight Log.

after testing it on a receiver (on the ground),
a AR7000 with "data/batt" stamp on the label

i saw some differences in the menu,
as it was stated in the manual.

the manual:

"press the button to display the following information"

A = antenna fades on internal antenna A
B = antenna fades on internal antenna A
L = antenna fades on the left external antenna
R = antenna fades on the right external antenna
F = frame loss
H = holds


my display after pushing the button repeatedly displayed the following.

A 000
A ---
L 000
L ---
F 000
H 000

to see B which is actually a "b" i need to leave the button unpressed
at A--- for a few seconds.

the same for R
screen at L--- and button unpressed for a few seconds
shows a "r"

all in line, pushing the button and wait at the right time shows this:

Volts
A = 000
A = ---
b = ---
L = 000
L = ---
r = ---
F = 000
H = 000

this is even more confusing....now i have 2 values for A and 2 for L ????

how does yours work.

AR700 only has one Rx in the main box and one sat Rx. So there will only be A and L readout.

AR9000/R921 have two Rxes in main box and up to two sat Rxes, therefore 4 readouts.

Flight Log instructions were written before the AR7000 became Flight Log compatible.
