In order to use all the channels you also have to change the receiver mode to Mode 4 (D16).
TBS DISCOVERY PRO PRO
The Discovery pro needs up to 10 channels in total for three independent systems. Simultaneously you can have multiple channels on the S.BUS in a single connection and eight channels as individual PWM signals. The X8R receiver can output different signal types. The wiring on the Discovery is built into the frame giving it a very clean appearance. Do I want to trust a cheap RC to control my expensive copter? Why Not! No risk no fun ) And so far, the Taranis is a very positive experience for me. On the other hand, the Taranis was brand new, hardly available and with questionable reputation despite positive reviews. Specs wise, none of the established brands (Futaba, Graupner) could offer anything comparable in the price range of 200$. When looking around for 2.4 GHz controllers in summer 2013 the Taranis from FrSky offered very competitive features, for a very affordable price. Together with the Discovery Pro I also needed to buy a new RC controller, as I did not have any. Due to a crash I’ve build the copter a 2nd time.ĭetailed setup guide and model files to download after the break. After covering the mechanical build in part 1 and part 2 of the build log, this part will be about the wiring and programming of the remote control.


In the third part of the build log I would like to cover the setup and configuration of the Taranis RC with the TBS Discovery Pro.
