Taranis Q X7 With Preinstalled OpenTX
This post and video covers what to do with the transmitter from the time it arrives till the first model is bound and ready to fly.
The transmitter (Tx) comes with both sticks spring loaded to centre the sticks. For mode 2 the gimbal on the left needs it's vertical axis (throttle) spring disabled and friction added.
The preloaded software, OpenTX, comes with mode 2 as the default setting and one model configured with four channel outputs.
CH1 Throttle
CH2 Ailerons
CH3 Elevator
CH4 Rudder
This basic configuration is enough to get flying once a receiver is bound to the transmitter.
If the Rx is connected to the ESC throttle please remove the propeller.
Gimbal Conversion To Mode 2
Opening The Case
Remove the four screws shown
Do not separate the case
Remove the battery clip slowly
There is a wire connected to it and a circuit board under it
Lift the right hand side first
Unplug the wire from the circuit board
Carefully separate the two halves of the case in a vertical motion till the pins in the module bay are clear
Be careful not to damage the pins in the module bay
Gimbal Adjustment
Locate the 4 gimbal screws shown
Note where the screw threads are visible and the spring tension
Turn screw 1 counterclockwise, left, till the spring tension is completely removed
Turn screw 2 clockwise, right, till it is all the way down
Note there is now tension on the spring again, this is normal
You may find that the throttle stick will move on its own
Check the amount of slack on the gimbal wires shown and adjust if necessary
Note the gap as shown
Turn screws 3 and 4 clockwise, to the right
Screw 3 affects the smooth friction on the vertical axis
Screw 4 affects the ratcheting (stepped) friction on the vertical axis
Tighten according to your personal preference
I tightened 3 all the way and tightened 4 till I liked the feel when moving the stick
Closing The Case
Put the case back together carefully
Take care not to damage the module bay pins
When tightening the screws just make them firm
The screws are being held in plastic which could could get damaged
