Well I'm fresh out of ideas then. Have you considered your X8R is defective? What a freakin bummer. :upset:
It's able to bind in D8 though... Maybe i should do what the Frsky tech said and remove the shell and try to bind in D16 mode, and if it works in D16, that means the F/S button is defective?
I dont know if I would void warranty policy from Aloft if i remove the shell though... I'll contact Aloft right now to ask.
