I followed the steps that were described here and I did run into problems. My radio would not turn on. The lights would come up but nothing else. If this happens, don't panic. Download the edge TX flasher and plug in the USB and re-flash with the edge tx flasher he showed in the video. My first time I used the flasher it didn't work either. I did it a second time and it came up and every thing works. Now I can go back and fourth as he does in the video. Great job with the video and Thanks for helping the community.

John, you forgot to tell everyone to 'select' the proper radio configuration in Companion before downloading the firmware! I have a Horus 10, X9D, X9D+, and a TS16S! So I 'must' select TS16S radio configuration to download the proper firmware! I use Companion to update all my Frsky radios, so Companion may not be set for the TS16S, like yours was! Awesome video, This is what I have been doing! Sure beats copying across the USB cable! Keep them coming!

Great video and easy to follow and understand but, still can NOT get Edgetx to work. I followed the video over and over... I copy the .bin files to the FIRMWARE folder and it shows on the SD card. I put the SD card in my Radiomaster TX16S and there is nothing in the FIRMWARE folder, it's empty. My bootloader on the my radio shows Edgetx .bin folder but when I choose load bootloader there are no files yet again. I have not had any issues with my radio except trying to upgrade to Edgetx.

If you can see them on your pc but not on the radio I’m going to guess that you have either: Larger than 32gb card and/or you formatted it with something other than fat32. Use your stock card and try again. You said your boot loader shows Edgetx.bin folder. There is no option to “load bootloader”

My tx turned on with white theme and blue top bar. It was blue theme and black top bar same as vid at 13:46, how do I change this back?

At the moment edge has themes disabled. For everything to work correctly you need to install the edge sd card contents.

After the flashing done, I found my models did not appear in my tx. so I have to redo the sdcard files copy one more time and restart and make sure the sdcard conversion and models conversion is done. After this steps, it's really done, I now can find my models and have to setup their widgets 1 by 1. Overall good. Thx!!

Hello, I did the procedures but on my JumperT18 Pro, the touch is not working. Could you help me, please?
@RCVideoReviews2 жыл бұрын
You need to first validate you have a touch screen. Click System, Hardware, scroll to Analogs, and touch the screen. If you see screen responses, you have touch. If not, you don't. What version of Edge do you have installed? Do you have touch turned off via special function?

I don't have hardware/analog touch, but appears below: Touch GT911 FW ver:0 TSI2CEvents:0 Version - FW:edgetx-t18, VERS:2.7.1(A55AFF02), DATE:2022-05-09, TIME:04:00:38, CFCG:221, OPTS: crossfire, ghost, afhds3, internalmulti, internalaccess, multimode, luac.

How do you flash boodloader on NV14, if long press on the edgtx file under firmware copy-delete-rename ? Never mind, used Edger flasher, had problems, ran impulsedriverfixer which if your dev is in dfu mode, it will load the dfu driver and flasher did it's thing.

Super! Thanks Installed EdgeTX. But. I have Taranis QX7 ( 2018). ELRS. 400k boud- doesn't work. OneBit Mode - doesn't work. I see no improvement compared to OpenTx

Visual improvements on non-touch radios won't be very visible, but they are modernizing every aspect of the firmware. There's a new FRTOS now, Crsfshot is enabled, internal crossfire, YAML for radio settings and model storage, etc... It's hard to tell when desktop OSs make any meaningful updates anymore either, but they use a technique referred to as Agile development which means small and continuous improvements. At the end of the day, your money, your hobby. Do what makes you happy, but EdgeTX is the future.

Hello, When I put the firmware binaries on my sd card on my pc and then place the card back into my Zorro, they are gone when I go to the firmware folder where I put them. Also, if I go into to DFU mode the old firmware keeps showing back up?

Double check you have the right firmware. Also, just to test, rename your SOUNDS folder OLDSOUND. When everything is correct, it doesn't take EdgeTX any longer to boot.

Does changing the firmware interfere with any other settings? Such as how models are set up?

I don't believe model settings are changed, but you will lose widget settings. I would strongly advise before doing anything that you backup your original SD card or better yet, start with a discreet SD card.
