Hello Tomas
Slight problem with my GT. The 1st time i connect the receiver battery some times the GT just puts the blue led on with no flash and does not initalize and nothing works.
If i disconnect the battery and plug in right away the led flashes and it all works ok....If i carry on conecting and disconecting battery it initializes evey time, but if i leave it for a while
it goes back to not starting. If it is starting ok all works well and flies good. Just a bit concerned....Jeti DS12 with Rex3 and Spirit GT...
Regards Adrian

I have observed exactly the same.
Ds14, Rex3

Sometimes it takes 2 Power up cycles to init GT.

If it is up... everything works fine

ppm/udi mode = direct
fail safe delay = 1.5s
2/E1 = exbus

i've not seen this happen to my GT so far. i am using 10ms and failsafe off (= to be done by Spirit unit) on all my Spirit units. i powered it either by 4xEneloop or 2s LiPo on bench and later directly out of YGE Bec (7.7V).

did you check the Spirit log when this happened? there should be some entry telling "why" it is not initializing... (and maybe: is Jeti telemetry already working correctly at this time? receiver correctly bound and responding? Spirit telemetry items?)
cheers
