Ok, thanks Bill.
That's for the Evo first, so I can turn off the HF.
It's from the MPX plug seen from the rear right ?

Sorry, lots of stupid questions in there!!  :oops:

From the rear, counting left to right clockwise

Hey Bill,

Took a bit of time tonight to setup the DHT-U module.
All good, module light up, and transmit as I can bind the receivers and I receive the informations on the screen of the module, but>>> when I move the sticks, nothing is happening!  :!:  :!:

Do you have to do something on the mc3030 after you plug the module via the Train/charge port ?  :?:  My light is red beside the on/off switch when I plug the module.
I played with the teacher / pupil function, but no clues! :!:

The red light, to me, mean that the TX is not transmitting I guess, because there is something plugged on the port  :?:

How yours works? You just plug and play?

red light on the TX means it's not transmitting through the TX aerial. It should be transmitting from the module.

Alright so, had another look!

The module is still not working (only turn on and receive data, but nothing is send to the servos :!: ) when I use the trainer / charge port!

Same thing on the 3030 and the Royal Evo!  :!:

So yestarday, after checking that all the input were correct etc, I plugged the module directly inside the radio, on the module bay in the Evo. And success!

Sooooooo now, the question!
Any ideas why the PPM signal is not working on the trainer prt? And that's on both 3030 and Re9!  :!:

For the Re9, I don't mind, I'll convert that one fully to 2.4, but for the 3030, I want to keep both 35 and 2.4ghz... Can't find nothing on the web about the PPM signal being out on the ports for the 2 radios...  :?:

Anyway, the Info return on the radio is very cool!  :D  Can't wait to test the vario, but already having range and onboard voltage, is a big plus for the big gliders  :D
