Hi everyone,
I need help with the following issue:
I have a T960 hex all set up with a new gimbal flying a GH4 and would like to be able to fly it in both 1-man and 2-man configurations.
The setup:
- Both copter and gimbal have their own X8R receiver.
- Both Rx's are using Sbus
- The gimbal is utilizing a 32 bit Alexmos board through Sbus. The gimbal uses encoders on the motors. The reason I mention the encoders is because using them requires me to put a second X8R receiver on the gimbal itself as there is no possibility of a slip ring with this setup.
- The copter also has it's own X8R receiver connected to a Naza-M V2 flight controller though Sbus.
The problem:
- I would like to be able to switch between using this copter in 1-man and 2-man configurations. In 1-man configuration I'd like control over the tilt and roll using the pots, and start/stop of camera using a 2-way or 3-way switch. In 2-man configuration I'd like the second Taranis to control the gimbal and camera only, with the sticks controlling gimbal pitch and yaw. I realize that I can bind one Tx to both Rx's. I also realize that, since I cannot bind 2 Txs to one Rx, I will probably need to do a re-bind according to whether I'll be flying 1-man or 2-man, and I'll probably need to switch models on the pilot Tx. I'm Ok with this, but can't figure out how to configure the Tx Models and Mixes on each receiver to make it work, and am unclear as to what binding modes I should use.
Specific questions:
- Can the X9D Tx even be bound to 2 X8R's that are both using Sbus at the same time?
- if so, how would I go about setting this up?
Am I asking too much of this equipment?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
