I've disabled the 'real-time check' in windows 10 and was able to download AND start the firmware update program. BUT after the update, the transmitter still has the older firmware running. Hope this will be fixed soon, because all my FS-A8S do connect to the transmitter on any selected model. The internet FlySky FS-i6x Firmware 2019 was infected with Trojan: Win32/occamy.C and FlySky customer services have refused to answered my queries via their contact site. Looking on member qba667 blog on FlySky Firmware for FS-i6x (Jan 19 - 2018), I found that the zip files infected by Trojan: Win32/Zpevdo.A.

Wouldn’t it be good, if you could train FPV flight with a flight simulator on your compuer, using your actual transmitter (in this case the FlySky i6) as controls?
Most instructions explain how to do this by soldering a cable with a trainer port (S-VHS) to 3.5 mm audio connection. Instead if building a specialized cable, my DIY guide will explain how this can be done achieved by adding an audio jack directly to the transmitter, so you can use a standard audio cable (which you might already have).

I am trying to build up my multicopter skills step by step, before jumping all in into high speed FPV flying and crashing my first expensive drone. For that reason I currently practice with my micro FPV indoors. It’s an Eachine QX95 which I like a lot and modified a little. I also read up on the technical (I might want to build my own drone sometime later) and “howto fly” side of things.

Joshua Bardwell’s video “Top Six FPV Drone Racing Beginner Mistakes” caught my interest (yes, this is a way of saying: “You should watch it too.”). Amongst other things, he strongly proposes to put in some hours with a simulator while using one’s actual transmitter (to build up “muscle memory” as he says).

So there I was: googling for a howto or manual or any kind of instructions which would tell me, how to hook up my FlySky i6 (which by the way is not really a FlySky i6 but actually the rebranded Eachine i6) to my computer which would run the FPV drone simulator.

The basics are simple: the transmitter emits a PPM signal via the trainer port. There are different ways to hook up that signal with your PC, but the most practical way to me, was to connect it to the soundcard’s input (just like you would connect a microphone) and use a nifty little programm called SmartPropoPlus to take that “noise” (it actually is noise – you will hear it over your speakers if you don’t configure your PC to mute it) and turn it back into the control inputs from the sticks and switches on your TX.

My then extensive work of getting everything up and running resultet in:

  • a perfectly fine S-VHS cable which got slain and mutilated for – as it turned out later – no reason at all
  • hopeless fidgeting with two bare wires which I had to hold steadily connected to the various cavities of the trainer port, while balancing the transmitter in my lap and simultaneously twiddling throttle, yaw, roll, pitch, etc. to get just any result in SmartPropoPlus
  • my two cats being severely scolded for chasing various tools and cables
  • another 3.5 mm audio cable being cut in halves and split up
  • more hours of reading and resarching how to get this freaking connection going…

I finally found out what I was doing wrong all along, in an utterly insignificant little blue-green forum comment in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western forumsphere of the internet:

Umm – I should be switching it to student mode?
Thank you Spartacus Rex, thank you!

I spare you further details of the production mishaps. What follows is the diy instruction for successfully getting the FlySky i6 (Eachine i6) connected with a FPV simulator, using a 3.5 mm audio cable.

Instructions:
Flysky i6 modification to connect with computer via 3.5 mm audio cable

Materials needed

  1. a 3.5 mm audio socket (e.g. like these)
  2. a 3.5 mm male-male audio cable (long enough to reach from your transmitter to your PCs mic input)
  3. two thin wires, 15 cm each should suffice, for wiring up the jack inside the transmitter

Actually, I had all of the above just sitting somewhere in boxes and little drawers of my collection – lucky me :-).

Tools needed

  1. soldering equipment
  2. Philips screw driver
  3. multimeter

Step by step instructions

1. Remove all batteries from the TX (better safe than sorry…)

2. Unscrew the transmitter (four Philips screws at the back)

3. Fully separate the two parts (the “front” with all the controls) and the “back” with the battery compartment and trainer port). In order to do so, pull the two white plugs – the one connecting the batteries and the one connecting the trainer port.

4. Drill a 6 mm hole into the back part. Choose a place where the 3.5 mm audio socket will have enough room once it is fastened in place and the transmitter has been put back together. It should not touch any other component.
For me, the best place I could find for my jack was in the lower left hand side, inside that little “foot” that is on the bottom:

5. Solder two wires to the audio jack:

  • the “signal” wire (mine is red) goes to the connection for the tip of the audio plug
  • the “ground” wire (mine is yellow) goes to the connection for the sleeve (the very back) of the audio plug

6. Fasten the audio plug in place. For me, this included shaving off parts of the plastic housing, as it would not sit flush against the inside of the transmitter casing otherwise.

7. Now solder the wires to the soldering points on the circuit board of the trainer connector. As you can see, FlySky generously provided us with big soldering points. So we should really make use of them! Before soldering, cut the cables down to a length where you have just enough to lay it down flat inside the back of the transmitter.

8. Tape down the full length of the cable. We want to minimize the chance, that something goes loose and interferes with the transmitter just when we try our first loops…

9. Re-plug the back part and screw everything back together.

10. Haha – did you really tape the cable down and put everything back together without testing your setup or at least reading all the steps first? You really should have!

8. (For real now :-)). Plug your audio cable (male-male) into the new socket which you just installed. Use the continuity check feature to ensure, that:

  • there is a connection between the tip of the audio plug and the soldering point with the signal cable
  • there is a connection between the sleeve (the conductive part furthest away from the tip) of the audio plug and the soldering point with ground cable
  • you cannot find any other connections between soldering points and the audio plug

Also check, that with the batteries back in, the transmitter works as expected.

9. Now tape down the cables and put the transmitter back together.

10. Install SmartPropoPlus and run it.

11. Connect your transmitter to your microphone audio jack of your computer.

12. Set your FlySky i6 to student mode. In order to do so, hold both horizontal trims inwards while powering on the transmitter. Then press “ok” for a second and the menu will pop. Finally select “Student mode”, which is part of the “System” menu, a few clicks down.

13. Success!
At least, that’s what I hope you achieved. There are (as always) a few things which can go wrong. On the SmartPropoPlus website there is a really helpful section about setting up the system correctly.

I keep my fingers crossed, that your project turns out well and that you will feel pleased with what you accomplish.
If not, I can recommend the sources I am giving below, at least they were helpful to me when I did this.
You can also contact me via a comment and I’ll try to help as good as I can.

Also, please let me know how you liked this article. I am happy to take in constructive criticism, but I am also open to praise ;-).

The flysky series radio is an excellent beginner radio as they are cheap and have great features. These are often bundled with ready to fly quadcopters, sometimes they are setup correctly by the seller, but usually the arrive with stock settings. This guide will show you how bind and setup your flysky radio for your FPV quadcopter.

In this guide, I am using the flysky FS-i6 radio with the latest firmware, but all the menus and functionality are the similar across the other flysky radios (FS-i6, FS-i6S, FS-i6X).

A model is a profile on your radio that you use for each of your aircraft, and saves all the settings specific to that aircraft that you have setup. This is great as it lets you use the same radio controller on multiple aircraft.

  • To setup your model, long press the OK button to access the radio main menu.
  • Navigate to the System Setup menu, press OK.
  • Using the Up and Down buttons, navigate to the Model select menu, in this menu, you can select various models that you have previously saved.
  • To select and activate a model you press and hold the Cancel button (counter intuitive I know).
  • Now we can give our model a name via the Model name menu, it’s a bit fiddly but worth naming each model so you know which aircraft each is for.
  • Remember to long press the Cancel button to save the name and return to the menu.
  • Now you need to select the model type, for FPV quadcopters you must select Airplane via the Type select menu. Again remember to long press the Cancel button to save.
  • Later if you want to create a new model you can use the Model copy option to save some time going through all the options.
  • The last thing to do is ensure that AFHDS 2A is enabled on your radio, this is usually on by default, but worth double checking.
  • Navigate to the RX Setup > AFHDS 2A menu, and make sure that it is turned on.

By default, the flysky radios assign Auxillary channels 5 and 6 to the knobs on the radio. Unless you are more than 5 fingers, it is rather difficult to precisely rotate these knobs while flying to change flight modes or other parameters. So we assign the Aux channels to switches on the radio.

  • Navigate to the Functions setup menu.
  • Scroll all the way down to the last option in the menu called Aux switches.
  • By default all of the switches are disabled for some reason, so via this Aux switches menu, you can enable them.
  • While you are on this menu you can change the number of channels output by the flysky R/C, but only with supported Ibus receivers.
  • Long press the Cancel button to save and return to the menu.
  • Now navigate to the Aux. channels menu.
  • Now you should set channel 5 to SWC (the three position switch), and channel 6 to either SWA, or SWB (a two position switch).
  • To save, long press the Cancel button.

The process of binding your receiver to your radio essentially just pairs them so that the radio and receiver know that they are talking to each other, useful when flying with others. The basic principle for all flysky receivers is the same, but some specifics might differ from model to model. Some receivers use a bind button, others use a bind plug, so take note for your specific receiver.

  • Turn your radio on while holding the bind button, once started the screen should read RX binding.
  • Now turn on your receiver while holding in the bund button on that (or with the bind plug inserted depending on your receiver model). Your receiver manual should tell you where this is.
  • Once complete you should see the message RXBind OK display for a second.
  • Now turn of both the radio and receiver, and turn them both on again. Assuming everything is correct you should see the correct LED display on your receiver, and for receivers that support telemetry you will see an RX bar on the top right of the radio display.

If you find that your RX does not bind, it may be because it does not support AFHDS 2A, so disable that in the RX Setup menu and try again. You also might want to try to enable and disable the PPM output option in the same RX Setup Rainbow six vegas widescreen patch. menu. If you are stuck, ask on our forums!

Having a failsafe is important in case your quadcopter loses signal with the radio, the quadcopter will know and can take appropriate action, instead of just flying away.

  • Go to the System setup > RX Setup > Failsafe menu.
  • We only need to enable the failsafe on the throttle channel (or channel 3) so that flight controller will know when it has lost the link with the radio. Scroll to Channel 3, and press the OK button.
  • Move the throttle stick all the way to the bottom, and turn the failsafe on.
  • Long press the Cancel button to save, and now you should see that Channel 3 is set to -100%. If this is not the case, try again making sure the throttle stick is all the way down and the trim is also all the way down.
  • The last thing to do is enable and setup the failsafe on your flight controller, so check your flight controller manual for how to do that.
