I still cannot get this working! In fact I think I may have been misinformed.

I purchased the following unit:
http://store.spirit-system.com/en/acces ... er-v2.html

Plug it into the rud port after binding my sats, and nothing...

I have tried everything and I just doesn’t work...

I think I need to buy the multi adapter instead..

in fact if you look in the manual
http://manual.spirit-system.com/index.p ... _SATELLITE

seem the "single" spektrum adapter is only supported in spirit, not in spirit pro
but im not 100% sure of that

Hello,

is the satellite bound? If not, then it will not work.

Yes of cause I have bound them!!! It’s not working and I agree I don’t think this is supported for the Spirit Pro! I need the multi adapter for it to work!

You do not need the Spektrum Multi Adapter.

Can you tell me how you are verifying that it is working?

Am I right that the connection is working properly if Spektrum satellite is connected in the Secondary port? (Native port in the Spirit Pro, not one that is used for GeoLink).
But if you unplug this satellite there is no connection, right?

Here is what I do:

1. Plug both satalites into Spirit Pro micro-jst plugs (naitive) in this case they are DSM2
2. I bind the satalites using the bind plug, and both satalites are now showing a constant light.
3. I remove the bind plug, restart the system to test everything is working.
4. I turn the power off, remove the secondary satalites and plug it into the Spirit single adapter. I then plug the adapter into the rudder port.
5. I turn the power on. The primary satellite connect as usual, but the satellite on the adapter is completely dead. It doesn’t show any light, not even a slight blink. It’s just completely dead

Kind Regards,
Peter

sure ... connect a standard receiver (not single line)
then check in the settings program if rudder indicator move when you move rudder stick

What do you mean with standard receiver? I only have satalites so I don’t think I have a “standard receiver”..

Can I connect a servo instead?

nope ... RUD is input port

standard i mean a receiver that carry all output channels separately
you have a spektrum then you can buy on hobbyking a very cheap spektrum compatible receiver for about 18-20€
