Issues connecting X8R and Navio2
#2

Yip. I use X8R for the receiver and Taranis X9D for TX. Just send the SBUS out on the X8R to the PPM on the Navio2.

Cheers,

I am currently doing this but my Navio 2 is not getting any input. I do see signal come out of the x8r but when I run RCInput all I get are 0’s. also no data input on Mission Planner.

How did you solve the problem?
and what product did you use?

thanks~!

jhjh54 I have yet to solve the problem

#8

How do you see the signal coming out of the X8R?

#9

I have a logic analyzer.

Long shot but maybe worth checking… What modes are set in the X8R when binding. These can be set by powering up with jumpers in specific positions. Nicely described here:

#11

I have it in mode 5 should I try mode 4?

#12

I would give 3 or 4 a try. I can’t remember what mine for the navio is on. Think it is a long shot but worth a try! Good luck!
