ix12 + 4649t - No access to Text Gen / Spirit menu

[Pino74]

I the only thing that I did not understand as ar6610t if it has 6ch, then to have 12 on my Ix12. all this depends on the flight controller? or else?
Thanks

The 6610t or SRXL2 protocol can support up to 32 channels, so limited to the TX. Plenty to read on this thread...

If the remote data from the FBL controller isn't displayed you can try performing a "Flight Data Reset" on the iX12 - this should get the data from the FBL to display.
There is also a shortcut to reset the data - When you are receiving telemetry from your receiver, on the top bar there is an icon that shows the signal strength (i.e a number of bars). If you do a long-press on this icon it will bring up the Flight Data Reset dialog and allow you to clear the Flight Data.

Tried this and same thing, inconsistent access to the text gen menu. Not sure where the problem is because tried multiple things as already suggested and same results

With srxl2, it has so far worked everytime. This is great for my smaller helis, but not gonna be a viable solution for the larger ones because I dont want to run a receiver.

I'm about to just say forget the integration part as their seems to be no definitive answer or reason why the inconsistent behaviour is taking place.

Hello,

unfortunately we have no ix12 here at the moment, but few months ago it worked perfectly everytime in our case.
Possibly there were some updates to the firmware again.

Could you try to bind the receiver in 22ms frame rate?

Have already tried changing the framerate from 11ms to 22ms, no change.

After chatting with Tomas directly earlier today (thanks for the time Tomas), I'll be testing the use of running a pair of the 4650 sat/receivers together

If this works (as it should), then this will be the setup for the larger helis and good to go

Just waiting for delivery of another 4650, which should be in a couple days here

[Pino74]

a curiosity why didn't you buy the 4651? instead of the 4650?

I had purchased the 4650 a while back, right when they were coming out and had it setting aside to test with when the srxl2 for spirit was released and just going to use them on my smaller helis, then stick with the 4649t and sats for all the larger ones.

Upon reading up on the differences between the 4650 and 4651t, the only real difference is the 4651t is described as a 'full range telemetry" sat/receiver, but nothing says anything about the 4650 having limited range. The 4650 passes all the same telemetry data that the 4649t does and the 4650t is what replaces it (as the 4649t is now discontinued).

So until I can perform a range test, there is no apparent difference other then the 4651t having a case and being $10.00 more, lol. Tomas and I agree that there may be no performance differences between the 2...

If a range test yields unfavorable results, then I'll get some 4651t's instead, but I doubt that'll be an issue because if they are geared for use on fpv stuff too, (which I dont fly), they fly further away then most of us fly our helis, so should be good there.

My main concern is when using the srxl2 stuff, is to not have to use the ar6610t at all and just use 2 of the 4650's (if acceptable from testing). A single setup with an ar6610t + 4651t is appx $110.00 and 2 4650's is $54.00, so half the cost, which when outfitting 11 helis, is a good cost savings
