OpenTx Companion Tutorial • How-to Use Logical Switches • Every Function Explained • [Beginners]

I cannot put enough Likes on this and your other OpenTX how-to video! LOVE it!

H I would like to know can I change the signal out put channel by logic switch?

Very useful VDO , Thanks for doing this.

@RCVideoReviews I have a question regarding the delta switch. If a switch is set as follows: d >= x, SA, -100. To me that means the logical switch will be true when the delta in SA is greater than -100, which is delta is between -100 and +inf. In reality, the way it behaves is as if the delta is smaller than -100, or delta is between -inf to-100 . Did I get this right? If this is a bug and gets fixed, it would change the way some radios are already set up.

great job

Hi,

I want to use reverse thrust on my plane, only when the landing flaps are activated and landing gear is down. Can you explain how to do it?

would it be possible to set up a logical switch to automatically activate safe mode on a spektrum receiver that is matched with a variometer when the altitude of the plane reached a certain level let's say 50 feet. Do variometers react quickly enough to altitude change for this purpose?

Thank you for all your videos, they are such a help. At first i tried to figure out myself how to do something pretty simple: have my arming switch only be armed when i hold a momentary switch. But the problem was that at first it works, i hold the momentary, flick my 2 pos switch in the arming position and it arms. But then when i release the momentary it disarms the quad again instead of holding the value.. i couldnt figure out how to hold the value there and keep it on armed even after releasing the momentary. I just want it to disarm again when i flick the 2 pos in the disarm position (disarming should work without the momentary switch tho for safety reasons). Now i found your videos and im sure they will help me, but if someone else knows how to accomplish my goal id be happy about a helpful comment and maybe it will also help someone else :) (got hurt in my last session by my quad when my RC was dangling off my neck and it bumped the arm switch while i was getting out the car holding the quad and it hurt me pretty bad, those props can really cut, im glad it was just my hand and im glad that i still managed to hold the quad, even tho the instinct was to let go but that couldve ended even worse. Anyway, have a good one guys, stay safe

this clearly has not enough likes... subbed

Do you have a video how to set up a reverse thrust for a plane?

It's been extensive, and I want to use it in aircraft schedules. It is necessary on many occasions, when you do not see the way to solve your need. Thank you for your teaching.

Ty so much! I've been trying to setup a momentary switch as a toggle that is then output on an aux channel for use in betaflight to enable/disable my video transmitter. Your video finally made it click in my head! I love the tango 2 but the lack of switches requires creativity.

Super helpful! Thank you! Following your tutorial, I managed to set up throttle warning for optimal cursing speed. Is there a written source, listing the explanation of all the logical switch variables explained in your video? It'd be useful to have it as a reference.

Awesome video!! First off thank you for that. I have a question regarding your timers. I understand how you set that up, I would like to know how you reset your flight timer?

It is a very useful video of this OpenTX theme. Thank You for sharing!

giving Bardwell a run for his money? your vids are very apriciated, thank you. second to bardwell to me is like wow keep it up,

Perhaps I missed it, however, I presume the logical switch becomes an input->channel->output. What wonderful projects the OpenSoftware movement has created! Ever evolving buy people deeply interested in the area! Old Linus had something going there. Cheers

How did you change your S1 Pot to control Volume?

Thank you, I am using opexTX, on gyro the mode is set to my switch with rate, off, hold mode when I toggle the switch, how do I change its value to off, rate, hold mode? I mean changing switch values from -100,0,100 to 0, -100, 100

I will try that thanks

I am a beginner and learning on a flysky bought the radiomaster 16 for later on , I think I am out of my depth,have been following your videos very helpful but is there a way to re set to factory settings thanks John from Australia

Thank you for making these videos. I now understand how the smoke can be made to turn on and off repeatedly. 😀

Hello and thanks for a great video.
I have one question, I can make global functions, but can I make global logical switches or do I have to make the logical switches for each model?

Love these vids, got a lot of info from this. Is there a video on how to setup the ESC brake?

Just a big thank you. My learning curve vertical! ABSOLUTE gem was making sure 3 position switch was assigned correctly !SD up and didn't result in ZERO servo travel on one switch position.

Is there a function of stopping the TIMER? Do not reset, just stop.
Suppose I press two switches at the same time and the clock stops.

Cyc1,2,3 are for helicopters. With those you create the mixer to mix the movement for the three servos that drive the swashplate. They are trig based functions that, e.g., move the swash for a left turn when the aileron stick goes left. I am in the process of trying to figure them out. I hoping to find a lua script to set them up.

Brilliant👍

This is a very nice tutorial, but only i can't see clearly coz it's out of focus

Powerful feature. Great video n thanks

Great videos, very helpful as I'm thinking of upgrading my TX to one of these 🇬🇧👍

Thanks for your easy how to vids to date, been very handy for setting up my TX16s. When changing the gimbal stock ends tho are they a two piece set? Mine are on so damn tight I’m worried I’m going to break the gimbal - how did you remove your stick ends on your TX16s?

Did I miss it I didn't see L14 light? Great video, not dry at all as it's great to see rather than read sometimes as it is easier to understand visually, when do you get time to fly??

Great video, very informative and helpful. You keep knocking it out of the park with your video's!

Superb, another enjoyable video to help my brain exit the Covid slumber!

Wonderful explanation for me just figuring out what the different symbols are and what they do is the hardest to figure out like the !1 after play track will only play when a switch is activated and not on startup.

Brilliant!! Thanks for making all these OpenTX videos. As a noob to OpenTX, these are really, really helpfull to help me get my head around the terminology used in the radio, and Companion.

You are a busy man. I'm just sitting back trying to soak it up.

more more more ;-)
