Updating the Firmware on a Spektrum iX14 Transmitter

[@mikeantonelli2267]

If you can't connect to your home Wi-Fi ( Xfinity modem for me). My temp fix was to start a Wi-Fi hotspot on my phone and connect your Spektrum through that. The only tme I need to connect is to install updates. Thanks txkflier for this video.

I found on my ix12 and nx10 in order to connect to the network I had to use a 2.4 connection not the 5 mhz.

Good video, I was going to update mine today but i do not see a way to choose what version you want. So say your 3 versions behind if you update will it just update to the first newer one or will it jump all the way to the newest version? I would like to know how many versions they are, I currently have the same one you just updated to in this video 3.02.47 I know there is a 4.0 that has the new + I don't want that. is there some in between those two? Thanks

@@epoweredrc That’s the firmware for the RF module. AirWare is currently at 2.00.13. The previous version was 1.21.07 which is what I’m currently running. Unlike the DX’s, you can’t choose an older version of AirWare. Do a Google search for iX14 firmware change log.

Hi, I am new to the channel and enjoy your vids on the IX14 which I just purchased. Could you share the exact name of the screen copy app you are using, as there are many to choose from. Thanks for your help.

I just now added a link to ScrCpy in the description above.

Well Done !!

[@constantmtn]

how do you show the battery percentage?

[@txkflier]

I don't see a way to turn the battery percent off or on in AirWare. There is a setting for it in the Android settings. Run the "Settings" app and search for "percentage".

Your videos are super helpful. I am having trouble updating my iX 14 transmitter using WiFi. I have been able to update via WiFi before on my 14. I just updated my IX 20 using my current WiFi credentials. I confirm my WiFi is connected on the 14, go to Playstore, WiFi icon is active showing connection, but gives my offline, try again. I have tried numerous times, taken the battery out, same result. Any thoughts

[@txkflier]

You might try lowering your Wifi network security to WPA or WPA2. My main Wifi network is set to "WPA2/WPA3 Personal" and my Guest Wifi is set to "WPA/WPA2". Setting mine to WPA3 broke some things. Also, if the Google Drive app has been updated, I would uninstall the update. I know the latest Google Drive app breaks the export models feature. I show this in one of my videos. I don't recommend updating anything except AirWare and, it's too soon to update to the new 20 channel version unless you want to be an unpaid beta tester.

After being unsuccessful with IX14 update yesterday after many tries, today I tried again and was able to update firmware. No clue as to why today, but thankful it finally worked. Thanks for all of help suggestions
