Rightio... So essentially if I were to set it up on a 2 way switch it uses the "book-end" modes and ignores the middle mode. Got it, thanks for clarifying. Cheers

Haha Cool. Another option pops up out of the woodwork. Nice. Thanks

Thanks. Good to know. Is there anything in the setup I need to know to have the 2way switch use manual mode 1 and GPS only and skip the mode 2?

I'm interested in your comments regarding the 3 switches seeings that was one of my first questions. I have the Turnigy 9x controller which has plenty of 2 way switches but only one 3 way switch. Robone replied with: I am using a Futaba 7C which has 1 x 3 way switch and 1 x 2 way switch. You...

Cool Vid. Nice! That's your rig in the vid I'm guessing? When you get some time I'd love a pic of your ground setup. If your willing that is. So do you have a pair of ys data link radios for sale then next week? I've started with the Talon V2 hex frame from Hobby king. A. because I get all my...

Yeah if you come through give me a hoy. I'm in Halls Gap. Is the data link your using the actual ys-x6 ones? (aren't they sold in pairs) Or do you use something else? As for your setup, wifi, data link, battery, no router etc etc ... I'd be interested in seeing pics of your system layed out...

I hope so. When I get to this stage I'll be trying what you've suggested. Are you using data radios? By the way I'm in the Grampians (West Vic) so we're not that far away.

Thanks Rob, 1. That makes me happy and saves me buying a $450 transmitter. I wonder if I can fly only in Manual mode 2 (stabilization) and GPS modes then and skip the manual 1 mode. I like the idea of my hex staying on altitude when ever I let go of the sticks but so I can still fly it around...

Thanks Johnno, 1. I'm using the Talon V2 hex from HobbyKing with custom longer arms to achieve an 800mm motor to motor size. I've custom fabricated the decks and landing gear using random part from other frames available on HK. 2. Thanks. I don't backorder anything though. I'll try and find...

Thanks Johnno, 1. I'll check out the Futaba. I'm also checking out the Spektrum Dx8. I've also posted the transmitter question on a Turnigy 9x forum to see if I can programme a dial pot to become a three way switch. 2. You've clarified the ESC thing for me. Thanks, I'll cut the reds tomorrow...

YS-X6 Questions Hi Guys, I'm new here and come from only a 12 month background in RC planes so still relatively new to things. I'm a photographer and getting my DSLR airborne has now become my priority and I've nearly completed my first hex build to carry my DSLR. I have a few questions but...
