X8r gimbals reading but not switches

Navio / Edge Hardware
1

Have an X8R connected to my Navio 2. Everything bound ok using this instruction set How to bind X8R to the FrSky Taranis in different modes | FPV blog
I can see my stick inputs in mission planner but none of my switch inputs are showing up.

Controller is a radio master zorro and I have the X8r bound in “mode 4”
All the tutorials Ive found just breeze over this part, havent seen this failure mode in anything Ive read yet.

Hi Nathan,

I can recommend following the instructions from the Radio Control Calibration guide in ArduPilot documentation. Hope it will work for you.

That was the documentation i started with, but it did not address the particular problem I had.

I did find a solution on how to assign switches to particular channels in the documentation for my specific radio. I appreciate the feedback though.

Thanks for the update, I’m glad that you sorted this out!
