How do I make my DX6i work with Heli-X?

Post by StarLog »

I have a DX6i and a Devo 7...

I purchsed the USB to serial cable that plugs into the TX, but the Heli0X never see's the stick changes.
It asks me to calibrate, but still no movement on the display when I move the sticks.

The TX shows PC in the display.

... the output looks well. Please check your system settings in Windows if there you can see moveemnts of the controller.

How would I check in windows, I tried DXTreak and also did not show the movement.

Is there another place to look.

I am using the GWS FS USB cable

Hello

I am a bit confused: The first post indicates that HELI-X is running, the last post that HELI-X is crashing.

And again: Check the controller in the system settings of Windows.

Hi,
I've a similar problem but only to assign the radio switch (for example aileron D/R switch) to an action on the simulator...all the sticks movement are ok in my radio...

I've a Specktrum DX4 too, and with this radio its all ok...the simulator intercept the "acrobatic" switch and the "trainer button" correctly.
Using this radio switch on DX4 I've assigned the idle1 function rather then use of the keybord.

This problem is not so important for simulator that works very well use but is more confortable for me.

Is it possible configure Heli-X correctly with DX6 radio?

great fly ;)

I wonder if Helix Version 5 will solve this problem for us.

I am eagerly waiting the delivery of version 5.

Happy Holidays.

It is. Many people use this transmitter with Heli-X. Just search this or the major heli forums for related posts.
Modelling helis for Heli-X! See model build log here.
