Successful "Twofer" Day
I recently picked up a dragonlink Tx and two Rx. One for the EasyStar and one for the ACM.
Had a great maiden a couple of days ago with the DragonLink on the ACM, so I decided to hurry up and get the other Rx in the ez*. I also knew that I always faired better with 2.4Ghz reception on the ez* than the ACM, so I decided to go ahead and mount the GoPro up, and put it on the line. The ez* is the old style AP with thermopiles. It was *really nice* to have failsafe on the 9x now. The RTL works as expected.
Even caught some lightning.
The DragonLink is a big confidence booster for me for the regular old close in flying, and was an easy install into the Turnigy 9x. I used these pictures.
Here's what the Tx and 12 channel PPM Rx looks like. I'm obviously a big fan so far.
Just missing the FPV goggle part of the equation. Going to be a while!

John,
Are you able to actually use all 12 channels of the Dragonlink Tx/Rx , with your Turnigy 9x? I am interested in this combination (with ER9X) but it seems a lot of radios are 10+ channels (a la Futaba 10C) but can really only use 8 channels in PPM. Thanks
