FBL Gyro Ikon Flybarless with DX6 Problem - Can't Get Set-Up Selection to Work

[RevoRob]

Hi guys,

I am in the process of converting my old T-Rex 500 to FBL. I am using an Ikon FBL for this purpose. I am using my DX6 Gen2 radio to fly the heli.

I have set up the Ikon with a pair of satellite receivers and all appears to be going in the right direction except for one interesting problem. I seem unable to get the Set-Up selection to work. As it stands, the Ikon is always on set-up 2. I have tried a whole lot of stuffing about to no avail.

Does anyone here have experience mating an Ikon to a DX6? Otherwise, does anyone have any suggestions?

Not sure how I missed this thread. The banks are on Aux2 I believe, or channel 7. So you would need a 7 channel Tx if you wanted to change the banks.

He could do it on the DX6, the problem (for some) is the loss of tail gain. If you use hard numbers in your TX and reassign channel 5 to your bank switch. I have done that with the K-bar and DX6.
