Hi I am new to r/c, well except for a stint 20 years ago, and new to simulation. I have an Art-Tech Cessna to cut my teeth on and am not to proud to confess that I crashed it straight into the ground after my first ever hand launch. Anyway I digress.
My problem is that I cannot get the TX to calibrate successfully via the mic port. The tx is recognised by FMS and shows up in the resources available dialouge, via smartpropo I assume, it all came on the cd. I have the signals also register on R/C Signal Analyser as recomended on these boards. The Windows sound recorder also detects the TX.
I simply cannot calibrate the TX successfully. The blue bars go haywire. I am on a 4 channel TX and can't understand why channels 5 & 6 also move when I try to calibrate certain channels. I assumed that when I move one stick in one axis that only the corressponding bar/channel in the calibration window should move but that doesn't seem to be the case. My Cessna is simply unflyable by the TX but works fine on the keyboard.
Somebody please help me out and save my blushes down the local park!
