I found out the secret to binding Frsky receivers last year. Wanna hear it? I rounded up all my Frsky receivers and bound them up in a paper bag then threw them all in the trash bin. Then, I put in TBS crossfire receivers all around. I now have a daily driver of RM Tx16s with a TBS module in the J R bay.

[@Painless360]

Sadly I suspect that the way Frsky has managed this has pushed a lot of their customers to a similar point. If they just listened to what customers want then RadioMaster, Jumper and others wouldn't have a market.. Such a shame... Happy flying

I feel I have enjoyed my time at the field so much better after learning from your videos. You really are an encouragement to all.

[@patrickcolclough2423]

I bought in to FrSky several years ago with a Taranis X9D ACCST and a year later with an X-Lite ACCST. Although they run the latest Open-Tx I haven't flashed the radios since I set them up and I still have about a dozen ACCST Rxs from r-XSRs to Varios, (even that stupid self-levelling Rx they sold). They all work fine. The moral being, if it works, don't fix it.

Thanks for doing this video Lee, best explanation I've seen so far of the mess Frsky made for themselves, I've been a Frsky fan boy since the beginning, going from solder in Tx modules to plugin modules and a Taranis. I bought a Horus when they first came out I now wish I'd waited for the Radiomaster, I wont be buying into the Access protocol. My love affair with Frsky is now somewhat jaded.

@@M-H433 It's ACCST and I won't be updating to ACCST 2... So it's starting to be difficult to get receivers.

[@twiggy749]

Thanks for the explanation. It looks like that Frsky commercial strategy is no strategy at all. Maybe in the future they will listen to their customers and they would add those restricted protocols to their radios by adding a notification to their radios so they can discharge the responsability of using them to their customers. That way Frsky radios would be compatible with Frsky receivers like others do. Who knows maybe one day they will activate their receiver to listen their customers with the protocol they talk ;D

[@RcAircraft]

Looking through the comments noticed some guys have reply a week before the video aired. 🤔 Nice explanation i have used Frsky from the start after i modded a Futaba Challenger with one of their internal Tx module when the cost of Futaba receivers got too high and was not cost effective to buy receivers for my Futaba FF7 (T7c).

Today, you can use a multi-module in most Tx with a Jr style slot in the back, or the ability to output PPM, even very old Tx from the 70's have been converted. No problems. With the new Rx software from Mike blandford, you get greatly increased performance and reliability.

[@kwadraticfpv3212]

Im currently building 2.4ghz express LRS modules. I have a couple of atto receivers to flash also. Even the flashing and binding of these is easier than FrSky sometimes. Once initially flashed it can be done in future via WiFi for tx and FC pass through for rx. Binding is also auto with you setting a bind phrase.

Hello - I'm just starting out and have an AR Wing on order. This video was spot on! I've been pulling my hair out trying to get my new X7 (ACCESS) bound to an Archer M+. Finally got the right firmware for the trans, receiver and internal module. Why they don't do this at the factory is beyond me. Quick question - I watched one of your videos that included a segment on Calibration and Leveling. You walked thru the steps and mentioned the params that have to be manually tweaked in the Arduplane parameter list. You had a model propped up with the right Angle of Attack and set a manual Param by specific degrees. I have looked and looked but cannot find that segment again! My F405 Wing thinks that "level" is sitting in the tail dragger position on the ground. Can you recall the video this was covered in?

[@Painless360]

There are only three series on ArduPlane - one with the Omnibus, One with a Matek F405 and one with the PixHawk Cube. You can find them a lot easier by using the playlists. With such a huge number of videos the playlists can often be a good way to find something again.

[@witneydiggersrc3251]

Great video and explanation, so how does one go to the next step and identify which from the binding options which ‘flavour’ goes with what.There are so many options

[@Painless360]

There is no way. You have to try them all in turn. Terrible implementation by FrSky.. Interestingly, someone else developed a good solution kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipvVaHqan8hshNE

[@pbshooter100]

Great video, thanks for taking the time to produce it. In the video you mentioned the move to V2.x.x (ACCST) which caused a lot if binding issues because it was incompatible with any of the previous firmware versions of ACCST but you also said that that issue has been fixed. Well I missed that memo, can you point me to some source that explains what has been done to fix the problem? Thanks!

[@Painless360]

I have a video on that. V1 won't talk to V2 and vice versa. Still the same. Unless you use an MPM ;) Happy flying

Thanks for this! Spent a whole weekend trying to get an MX+ from banggood to bind with my QX7 - had to get older receiver firmware from a guy on a facebook group to get it working :/ I can see the appeal of the multi-protocol modules now.

Check out all of my recent videos about this - they have the link to the firmwares that FrSky kindly no longer list to support pilots. I hope that helps others..

[@andreaspap]

Thanks so much for this so good video. I am new in this hobby but still can not understand why the companies do not make it more easy. Why not the multi protocol radios recognize automatically the receiver and bind or make it more easy like TBS and all is perfect with the hobbyist .

Hi Lee, I’m looking at swapping everything away from Frsky, maybe run Tracer? Though I fly planes/wings, and from what I understand, I can’t get a Tracer receiver with pins ready to go?

[@neildotwilliams]

I walked up a mountain yesterday to a good spot only to find my quad wasn’t bound to transmitter, couldn’t access bind button. My fault as I’d been messing about with tx firmware a few months ago. I have a uk65 which is international only. I have since bought crossfire and will never use frsky again, I’ve had so much trouble over the years even when the firmware matched 🙄

[@Painless360]

I've done that too. Most of the pilots I know have too.. I now test things before I load up the car. It always seems to be the model with the RX hidden away that has the issue isn't it! :D

[@typxxilps]

Is it really a thing limited to FrSky receivers or more in general the protocol D8 / D16 I abandoned the whole FrSky ship back when they startet to go for the accst protocol and started fighting to get Jumper radios from dealers shelves. I instantly sold my 2 FrSky radios , the x9d and joystick one, I guess x-lite radio and since then went for what FrSky had tried to ban: Jumper and later Radiomaster But i had not so much trouble with the receivers that I could not replace that easy ... till I moved forward to crossfire for most cases (except sail boats and rovers that work beautifull with those older receivers). But I guess I avoided a lot of trouble by buying just 2 kinds or models of receivers and stayed with those but I had not suffered from space and weight cause I do not build copters cause there I prefer DJi products to stay on the safe side with the more expensive stuff.

[@a10nmw]

Thanks for the video. I have a Taranis X9D+ and RM TX16. After using the TX16 for about 9 months, I am converted and most of my planes are using this radio. Mt last time that I use the Taranis must be last summer. Sad really as the Taranis is a solid radio but not versatile at all

[@The_Pub_]

For those of us that Don't Live in Europe,, It is Not an Issue. Also Plug in a Multi Module and the QX7, ((ACCST or ACCESS) as there is Only 2 protocols..),, Will bind to More than a Jumper Multi can,, And for Value,, it is Still the Best Transmitter on the market.!! But If My Taranis ever dies,, I will Purchase a RadioMaster, (Only if they make me a Thumb wheel instead of the Scroll wheel)!!

[@jcnorth]

Thanks fot this I have typed 1000's words on forums trying to help people bind frsky rx to tx. Maybe should have made the video myself would have saved me time trying to explain it all. Another thing is that Open TX version is nothing to do really with transmission protocol ( apart from not ticking EU to enable D8) people are still confused about that. I agree that they destroyed their own market with all this - and something they could have fixed themselves. They could get into the multiprotocol market at a slightly higher price point as their quality is better than radiomaster. They had to open up v2.1 as it was really developed outside frsky as they screwed up a number of attempts to get round the mysteries glitch - which I have never seen. Any a very useful video thaf should be referenced in every forum covering ACCST protocols. Thank.

[@dsarnson]

Good summary, thx. Here is a weird one. Updated S8R with accst v2.1.0 and bound to X10s also with v2.1.0 on the ixjt. D16 mode, ch1-8 telemetry ON. However, now there is no telemetry from the S8R, no rssi, no rx bat voltage. Tried deleting and rediscovering the telemetry sensors. Have you seen this? Is this a known bug? Or did I mess something else up? Cheers.

Hello Lee, I just upgraded my X9 Lite to a TX16S, I have/had an R9M Lite Pro module and some receivers for a couple of quads and had hoped I would be able to 3d Print a cover and manually wire the smaller module bay to fit with the slim module. The problem I am facing thus far is that the TX16S does not expect to support the slimmer modules and it is therefore not available to select when in the bind menu. I know the opposite problem of having too small a bay has a fix, but what I am looking to do seems more niche of a problem. So what I am wondering is if there is any way to modify the bin firmware build to have it appear for the TX16S. I assume it would not be possible to wire it up and use the regular R9M option and pretend its the correct one (but lower the output power). Is my issue at all possible to "fix" or should I just give up.

If the receiver is using ACCST then it'll be one of 4 flavours. V1 (in either LBT or ECC firmware), or V2 (with the same two flavours). Luckily, multiprotocol modules support all of them so try them one my one and you'll find the one that works!

I wonder how many people at Frsky grasp just how badly the company screwed up? Virtually EVERYONE in this hobby was using their product... and then Frsky went to great trouble and expense to achieve... what? Pissing everyone off and squandering all the good faith of their customers. This is why I believe that success in business is not an indicator of genius. Mostly just a lucky happenstance, and the unappreciated toiling of some low level employees. 🤨

I think they are drinking nothing but their own cool-aid at this point. If they just listened to what customers want and stuck to the open nature of their original products then they would still be the darlings of the hobby and the default choice. Such a shame... Happy flying
