Hello all,

I was doing a spectrum analysis with my Spirit pro when the vibrations went off the scale without the motor even running, it was unresponsive and would not re-connect to the computer.
I did a recovery and then an update to the latest software and firmware and the unit and controls are now working but, the sensors are no longer working.
When I tilt the heli' the swash doesn't move, the rudder doesn't move and the spectrum analysis now shows nothing at all, either running the motor or not.
I feel the unit maybe at the end of it's life but I wanted to check with you first :cry:

Thanks

Dont worry, we have no unit that has end of life.
There is always way how to repair it.

In your case it seems the fix could be performed even remotely and easily.

We will only need to write serial number of your unit. Do you have original Spirit box?
Please send me private message containing this number.

Thank you!

Thanks, you gave me a great clue.

I went back and found (luckily) the recovery file you sent me a year or two ago when I had a similar problem (spirit-fw-2.6.11.4df) That got it all working.
I then re-updated to the latest software and it's all running perfectly again.

Many thanks again for your help :)
