![]() Do a Google search for "X9503 frame rate". You'll see lots of hits that say it only does 22ms. I'd consider that pretty compelling evidence.

![]() Hey there everyone...
Not sure if I have posted to the right area Hit the quick reply to this and not sure if I should have hit the post reply. Anyway. I have just joined the Mikado following and have the mini Vbar I have a Dx8 Now I have just tried to set things up and still am a bit confused with the whole thing. Been align until now and their set up really can be just plug and play Anyway to the point.... Sorry MiniV has been set up... Initialized...etc. but when I disconnect everything and go just from the buffer pack to the MiniV. It jumps up/down 34 times and the MiniV continues to blink. Set tx up as dsm2 not dsmx. Even tried just my old sat rx's not the mix of dsmx and dsm2 sat Rx. In the setup screen I bind to the digital centre option as suggested. Servos are futaba bls252 Will be heading back to LHS tomorrow...one servo is cactus out of box Sats are bound with no blinking... By the way... Do you have to still turn on tx while holding the bind button down. That was the only way it would bind.............. Sorry for this being so long Thanks in advance to the knowledge that will fly in cyber world VBar rock from what I can see. Might even pick up a full size VBar as well tomorrow. Cheers. Wattsy |

If you have pro, start a new thread and post Event log, if Express start a new thread and we'll debug from there. |

![]() Thanks for getting back to me. Mr Mel
Not sure of the diff between the pro or express. oh... The other thing was there was no event log. In looking at vstabi forum.i might be the express. Not the pro??? In you videos. It shows it under The info tab... All it shows if info. No event log I think I've fixed the issue. Failed to realize that this set up is completely different to what I am used to. I had the swash type set at 120 ccpm With these as you well know. It must be 1 servo set up in TX Sorry for the confusion. RTFB/RTFM Read the [email protected]?! Book/Manual.. Thanks again. I hope my experience saves someone else time and extra grey hairs... Thanks again. Will post the final product and report back on the maiden flight... Hopefully next weekend. |

![]() Good that you got it all sorted out
![]() You can read about the Pro version here and features are well displayed here. In short, if you bought a new VBar and haven't upgraded it yourself, it's an Express. They all come as Express from Mikado. If you did the $45 or so upgrade to Pro, you'd know ![]()

![]() I just want to make sure I am on the right path. I read through the sticky and still I am a little confused.
-I have a DX8, which came with two free AR8000 receivers. These satellites are DSMX even though the plastic casing is marked DSM2. I am pretty sure this is the case, but want to confirm. I am going to use the two satellites for my full size Vbar. The satellites are marked with a HE009B and HE012X designation. - The mode I will use in the Vbar to bind is DSMX for 2048 and 11ms. Thanks, Justin |

![]() Hey everyone...
Just curious why my servos are so docile? I have bound the sats as... - Run Spektrum Satellites 1 or 2 Digital Center in the VBar (will be 22ms/1024) But they are so docile that I really have no snap to Swashplate movement. Did the maiden flight today and all went great. Just as though I had huge expo's dialed in. Which of course I don't. Pitch is all up around the +-12 and ail/elev +-8 give or take. Also... The servos take time to recentre. Tail servo is fine. Only that doesn't recentre. Running Futaba BLS 252's Tail. Futaba BLS 256HV. Qestion... Should I get another DSMX Sat (Already have one) and re-bind or can I run the DSM2's without the digital centering option? Will get some pics up soon in relation to the build and maiden. I CAN say at this point. Even if a bit docile... What a Heli. Should have made the transition earlier. Thanks in advance. Wattsy |

![]() I have a Futaba 8FGH and a Spektrum DX7s. After reading this post.. I want to pound my head against a wall. Lol. Just got a new Silverline for my X7 and was wondering which transmitter to use now? Does the 8FG or DX7s play better with the V Bar as far as high frame rate 11/22ms etc? I wanted to use my DX7s because of the clean satelite setup. I'll be using 8917's on cyclic and a BLS256HV on the tail. I would think the higher frame rate would be the way to go on a flybarless system, but this is my first V Bar and looking for input!

My assumption, after skimming over this entire thread is... 1) I should buy 2 spektrum DSMX satellites -- as a forward moving upgrade 2) I can still bind w/o problems to my old DX7 through the Vbar 3) V-bar can be be configured with Rx sat. as Spektrum Satellites (1 or 2) digital center OR (HiRes mode). Is one recomended over the other for my old dx7? It looks like either will work from the posts quoted above? Also, is this the simple solution/conclusion (for my application) to the complex problems mentioned in this ongoing 2 year old sticky thead? Thanks guys for your time!

![]() Just to get this straight. If I am using a DX8 transmitter, with the latest DSMX sats (no receiver setup), should I set up the the DX8 to 11ms and bind to the VBar using "Spektrum DSM-X Satellites 11ms (1 or 2)" as highlighted in the picture below?
