| Hi,
Has anyone using this mixer experienced a loss of servo output after hooking up a gyro on channel 4? Very strange thing, I programmed and installed the TH-2 and it worked fine without a gyro installed. I installed a test gyro (Century Piezo) on channel 4 after which the electronics except for the throttle servo (not mixed through the TH-2) stopped working. So to continue trouble shooting, I hooked the same gyro up to the elevator channel and it worked as advertised with no issues or conflicts. What would be the cause of this difference? Radio is a Futaba 9CHP set to SWH-1 with no additional mixes on. Power is supplied by a Fromeco 7.4v 4800mah pearless battery regulated to 5v powering the TH-2, the two sets of 3 servos, and the Rx through independent leads. I checked, and rechecked all servos to confirm correct hook up to the external boards utilized with the TH-2. I found a post on a different site that talked about different phasing of gyros, maybe but that dosen't seem to fit when it worked on the elevator channel? Anyway, a little disappointed I disconnected the gyro and test flew the bird, squirley but still together...whew. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated? I'm betting this is one of those things that a second set of eyes would find at a glance. Thanks. |
