Mg flash with audio module

Post by David Gray »

Just connected up all the motion pack ,and everything seems to work apart from the mg
Flash . I am using the 3 potion toggle switch on a futaba 7c to control the sound
When I turn the sound unit on and the engine start sound the mg starts to flash strait
Away and goes to a solid on when I move the stick to accelerate, I have the mg connected
To output 4 on the module ,and tried programmING the unit several times. As any one else had the same problem

I haven´t got to that stage in my build yet but my research indicates that output 6 rather than output 4 is the one that should be used.

Hello David

Firstly my apologies for the delay in responding.

You have the latest Audio module and TBS Mini sound card setup in your new kit. It is very different from previous releases.

I have, this morning, been testing the the TBS Mini cards and checking the parameters.
The machine gun flash is connected via the audio board direct to LED output 4 on the board.
The outputs are are labelled and the instructions show you where these connections are.

All the boards, 5 off them, work fine when an LED is connected to output 4. The setting up of the TBS Mini, that the user has to do, does not affect this function at all.

Double check that you understand which is the correct output on the audio module and that you have the LED connected the correct way round.

Hi Mark I will check this again , but it is
Hard to get this wrong as the led outputs
Are clearly marked on the case 1to 7
And I have tried the plug on the led both ways
I will let you know how I get on when I get back from
Holiday
