Ok, noted. Thanks.

Noted. Thanks for the comment.

Glad to help. Thank you for the nice comment.

For what it’s worth, he’s still helpful for those of us who are technically inclined but overwhelmed by other things and just need a quick how to as well. Big fan of @RCVideoReviews

Thanks for the kind comment Bill. Have fun with 2.9!

Funny you ask: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gKQeohGMTLk.html

Check your mode option on the system settings menu.

You're already going to have to take some extra steps going from OTX to ETX as of 2.9. Here's the roadmap: edgetx.org/assets/roadmap.png?raw=true

Number of RC depends on what they find. Once they put a release candidate out they're kind of counting on people to load it, find issues, and report back. Fewer issues = fewer RCs. More issues = more RCs. So it kind of depends on what people report.

You're very welcome.

You're welcome!

Glad to help, thanks for watching.

Right? Our EdgeTX development team are just an amazing group of people. Love them.

You're welcome.

I don’t think so. You should make a feature request on GitHub for that. I agree-it’s needed.

@RCVideoReviews OK, I will John!

Noted. Thanks.

You're very welcome. Thanks for the kind comment.

Yes.

Remember: This is a release candidate...not final. Keep that in mind.

Widgets have never survived migration from OTX to ETX from day one. You have to re-do them.

@@RCVideoReviews Thanks for that. Appreciate your quick reply.

I do not. Does it revert to normal behavior if you flash 2.8.5 again? If so and if this is repeatable, you need to open an issue on the edgetx github.

@@RCVideoReviews thanks for your reply. I flashed it with 2.8.5 and the noise went away. It is repeatable. I'm not familiar with github

2.9 uses "enabled features" which includes the ability to turn the heli tab on and off in global or model settings.

@@RCVideoReviews is there a place where I can download 2.9

Did you check the description? You can also google: EdgeTX 2.9 download. It's the 2nd link down.

2.9RC1is a release candidate. That means no more updates other than fixes. 2.8.5 has some other changes going on. For production use, stick with 2.9.0RC1.

Thank you! And thanks for hitting the tip jar.

It should be a relatively seamless upgrade, but really, you're the only person who can make that decision. Keep in mind, this is still a Release Candidate, so not final.

You probably flashed the wrong firmware. Make sure it's TX16s, not T16.

Thank you for the kind comment.

2.9 layout is really nice for touch. I guess it's a give take situation...

I've been off of OpenTX for almost two years, so I haven't confirmed it myself, but yes, that's how it should work. Try it. It can't hurt to give it a try.

You're welcome. Be on alert as this is still a release candidate...

Maybe you could write one?

Just posted the video for that ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gKQeohGMTLk.html

I can't tell if you're yanking my chain or not.

Noted.

Yeah! That would be sweet.

You're welcome

Probably a good idea.

Done: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gKQeohGMTLk.html

Enabled functions and a few screen layout updates along with the joystick options.

RC1 means "Release Candidate 1" So it is not a final version BUT the developers have stopped implementing new features and expect this to be near the final state. So it's really up to the individual if they're cowboy enough to use it at the field. You can wait for the cowboys to find the issues, and sit tight with 2.8.4, or, you can cowboy up, install it and see if you can help find any bugs/issues. It is 100% up to you. Personally, I wouldn't fly it with my expensive planes. I would fly it with planes that are more durable like my TH Edge or my Crash Test Hobby Grim Reaper. I also usually wait just a few days before flashing to allow the real cowboys to make their initial field reports.

@@RCVideoReviews Thank you that's what I thought. Awesome video as always.

It didn't move.

Thanks!
