Phoenix Problems Really....

[solidhelix]

I am having problems all of a sudden with channels being swapped randomly in phoenix. The throttle and aileron is swapping and rev.ersing at the same time so I figure. It's really odd because no matter what dialog I go into, whether it calibration or transmitter profile it shows the correct input from my tx (dx6i). It doesnt make sense. Also, it will not detect my gyro switch anymore? The tx is set up correctly. blank model set to heli and gyro set to 0 and 100 (nothing else needs changing i don't think since its set up for 1 servo by default)

I have the tx widget thingie down in the corner showing stick movements. and no matter what i do, even if i swap the channels manually in profiles, throttle still moves aileron and vice versa. (no I'm not using the dx6i plane profile.

Like I said, during calibration all the correct channels show correct inputs. I have restarted phoenix, the computer and changed usb ports. I am really getting frustrated. I checked the monitor in the dx6 and it reads correctly. I'm running out of things to try....

dumb question.....your tx is turned off right?

[solidhelix]

yup

[gilligansc]

weird....almost sounds like the cable ID tag is messed up?

[solidhelix]

that doesnt sound good I'm waiting on parts now because of a crash, so all i have is phoenix and now that has crashed! Man this hobby can be frustrating

If I wake up tomorrow and it's not magically fixed, I'll take a video of it. It's 12:21am here now and I have to sleep

yup.....most give up sooner than later.I would have given up a long time ago but I'm stubborn and have too much $$$ in it....I do live for the few moments when everything works awesome and I fly Half decent! They do get more frequent the more you get into it.
Good luck and stick with it. I have to get away from it every now and again.

It sounds like you have somehow selected a Futaba transmitter vs a Spectrum transmitter in your Phoenix tranmitter selection---or vice versa. Those two have that switch of throttle and aileron channels.

If it's still not working I would try uninstalling and reinstalling the program.
Is there any damage at all to your cable? I ran over mine with my desk chair and messed one up.

Nope. Spectrum profile. I've created a new transmitter maybe 50 times now. No dice
