Robin Mosedale 1 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Gen 2 DX8. I'd like to set up two channels, each with 6 modes for INAV: 6 non navigation modes on one channel, say AUX2, and another 6 navigation modes on another, say AUX1 I've seen one guide setting up AUX2 employing the FMode B switch and Gear A switch with AUX2 -> AUX2 mixing, but for the life of me I can't figure it out and doesn't seem to work. I'm missing something here Spectrum DX8 2 Switches 1 TX channel 6 Flight Modes - Blogs - diydrones Could someone guide me through a set up of assigning switch to channels, throws and mixing please?

Denis Watkins Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Robin, your set up is very unique and at a guess, there is no one On here who has run through such a setup. I know for a fact that a Gen2 DX8 can complete any task that is devised by Logic. Draw a flow diagram of your channels and the related switches, and this will make your mix settings clearer.

Robin Mosedale 1 Posted June 18, 2021 Author Share Posted June 18, 2021 I suspected, Denis, that it would be difficult here as it's relating to mode switching on a flight controller for a fixed wing Line of Sight INAV/Ardupilot aeroplane.

Frank Skilbeck Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Robin I haven't got a Spektrum., but what Logic is doing is using flight modes with different mix percentages in each flight phase, so with 2 flight modes on a channel controlled by a 3 position switch you get 6 effective positions. You could do the same mix on another channel, but while you would get 6 positions on each channel, when you change flight mode you would change the mix on both channels at the same time.

Robin Mosedale 1 Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 Thank you Frank, very kind. In the end I applied pure logic to a stick with a fixed range, and applied % mixes to itself dependent on the position of a controlling switch. I'm sorted, now have to separate ranges each of 6 positions, 12 total on two pairs of switches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
