I finally gave up on the S.Bus converter. At first I thought that I could use it safely as long as I avoided using the AUX2 switch which seemed to be the main culprit in the loss of comms I was seeing but this passed week I almost lost or destroyed my Y6 when it went into failsafe and started climbing away. I never touched the AUX2 switch but it lost comms with just normal control stick inputs, I ended up cycling power on my TX and moving every knob and switch to somehow get control back and land the Y6.

Ive sinced moved to the DX6i TX I had lying around, I cant use the RTH functions but I can fly with it.

Yesterday my maiden with my 2nd AQ, V6.6R33 and FrySky TRR8 SBUS receiver (first time use).
After ~15 seconds the AQ went into failsafe.

Or R33 has a bus which I don't believe but with all the FrySky problems out there I suspect this is the cause.

Why did I forget to put the SD in :evil: :evil: :evil: :oops:

I stick to original Futaba SBUS or maybe it is time to buy a Spektrum DX18

Just tried R33 on AQ1 with Futaba SBUS, no problems.

Yikes, sorry to hear about both those incidents.

Frank, were you able to recover from the failsafe mode?

Certainly doesn't bode well for the FrSky SBus implementation... :shock:

No, it took a wile on the ground to get connection again.
Nothing serious damaged, wow once some luck :) ,
I put the FrySky in the bench vice, the only write place for this stuff :P
