Does anyone know what this means in the change log "Added SD logfile indicator to main screens." Does thi smean we will now be able to store telemetry log data to the SD Card like you can with the higher models?

Edit: Nevermind...I see that SD telemetry logging was enabled in the last update. How did I miss that!?!?

I know SPM filesbfor the DX8 do not work with the DX7S. That is why I asked if there were ones for the DX7S.

I quoted the wrong person...I meant to quote the person you quoted.

New DX7s 1.03 & DX8 2.06 AirWare™ firmware are now available for download

Dear Spektrum Signal,

The Spektrum team is happy to announce a 1.03 version of AirWare for the DX7s and a 2.06 version for the DX8. Make sure you are up-to-date and download DX7s 1.03 or DX8 2.06 today.

DX7s Version 1.03:
Software Features:

• Automatically corrects sub-trim and travel for models created in version 1.01 and earlier after prompting the user. This is functional both for models already in your radio, and for any you import from an SD card. You should always verify operation of a model when making any updates prior to flying it.
• Enabled ability to configure inactivity timer
• Enabled dimming control of the orange Spektrum LED for night flying

Software Corrections:

• P-Link Master Trainer mode was using trainer data for channels GEAR and higher.
• When a channel is reversed the endpoint adjustment worked on the opposite side from what was expected.
• Improved French translations.
• Added SD logfile indicator to main screens.

NOTE: This change affects sub-trim and travel of existing models and ones you will import. You should double-check sub-trims and travel on any reversed control surfaces in both airplanes and helicopters when using models created in version 1.01 and earlier.

I just uploaded the new firmware to my DX7s and all my callibration is now messed up. I have calibrated my sticks 3 times, and I still have aileron at 23% when the stick is centred. So I am guessing that all my aircraft are messed up.

Anyone else have this problem? Help!

First.When you are checking calibration of the sticks you need to be on a blank/reset model memory.

If you didnt notice when you updated to 1.02 the subtrims and endpoints on reversed channels were probably realigned and needed to be adjusted back to their original positions.If you didnt use 1.02 then it doesnt apply.
When you load 1.03 and access a model you will get a screen prompt to decide if you want to update that model.If you had an issue with 1.02 and you updated/reset the trims/endpoints manually then you click Cancel because you have already done it.If the model was created before 1.03 and was not adjusted manually you will click Update and Yes and the radio will realign the model for you automatically.

If you click Cancel on a model that needs to be readjusted you will then have to go back and do it by hand.

Since there is ample opportunity to screw it up a warning was issued to make sure you double check your settings before flight after doing the updates.

Thank you so much! I never knew that. It's 100% spot on, now.

Phew - our club has a fun fly tomorrow, I was worried everything was screwed up.

I am assuming you mean the RadainPro? not the V1 3ch one?

Try This i used this and change it abit to my liking.
http://www.radian-pro.com/spektrum-r...trum-dx7-setup

This is a good base for a great set upon this radio!
I changed a mix for my camber and reflex to be on the aux2 dial, and use the Thr hold switch beside it to turn it on/off. So when the dial is centred it is 0% cam/reflex.
Turn the dial CCW gives me reflex, and pull the dial CW gives me camber. can be switch adjusted to your preference). Also at any given time i can just pull the switch to turn if off no matter what position the dial is at.
other then that this one is good to go! More then likey once you plug everything in,you may need to adjust all your control surfaces as every ones servo/horns are set up differently.

regards

Thanks you Aerocal, good explanation. You make it very clear!

Lol @ the date format being swapped around.Thats how we do it here.Month/Day/Year.

Im still trying to figure out the driving on the left side of the road and going fast and turning right when racing.I have several theories.

I finally got the whole relationship between inches and millimeters sorted in my head.That was a doozie.

Maybe because the weight of the driver feels more natural on the inside of the turn?

So, you only turn one way in your neck of the woods?

3 right turns = 1 left turn. 8)

OK, just downloaded the new airware for my Dx7s, saved it to the same SD that came with the Tx that I only use in this TX. Popped it into the TX and powered it on. The progression bar goes up and then starts over and over???? Now my TX is in update mode and I dont know what to do? Help!!!!!!

Nevermind! I just reformatted the card, downloaded again and it worked!

In Windows, if you have already download a previous update, a file name SPMTX.SAX on your PC, some browser will simply rename the new file SPMTX(1).SAX.

So You would have to change the name of the file on your SD card to SPMTX.SAX.
