Configuring FAILSAFE when TX gets shut off

[PilotHal]

Hi Guys;
So here is the procedure that I used to configure my FAILSAFE mode for the Wookong-M when I shut off the TX. But I don't see the WKM go in to FAILSAFE on the U channel in the software. What am I doing wrong?

My Procedure:
1) Calibrate the channel such that the software shows the indicator is in the FAILSAFE region.
2) Power-off the WKM and then the TX.
3) Place a bind plug in the RX and power up the WKM.
4) Hold the bind button down in the DX8 and rebind the WKM to the existing model selected in the TX.
5) Confirm the RX is bound.
6) Power of the TX.

At this point, the RX is still on and should see the TX signal go away. I then should see the indicator move to the FAILSAFE region in the software but I don't see that happening.
What am I doing wrong? :dejection:
Thanks!

Have a spektrum but modded with LRS system so never did the normal failsafe with it.

But this should help and make it clear:

Instead of creating a preset with the stick. Use your three position switch to create the desired preset. You will have to adjust your three position flight mode switch before that it triggers a manual failsafe. Flick the switch to the position triggering failsafe and do the procedure like in the video !

Cool! I'd love it if this stuff was documented in the RX manual.
Thanks!
