SpektrumTM DX18G2 AirWareTM Change Log
2015-October-22
Version 1.04
Changes since 2015-January-28
Special Notes

In the Telemetry menu, some sensors may not be reported properly on the
display or audibly after updating. If this occurs for you, please remove the sensor
from the Telemetry list, then re-add it using the Auto-Config function on the Setup
sub-menu.
New Features& Improvements

Support for Multi-Rotor models. This includes changing the input names to
Altitude, Roll, Pitch, and Yaw, the addition of more model images, a few more
canned options for your Preflight Checklist (you can always edit them), and a
more-usable Flight Mode Setup screen that allows you to easily specify servo
output positions. Using the Channel Assign screens, you can select a different
input to control a channel in each flight mode – this is useful to have a mode
which keeps the model stable, but allows you to operate the camera using the
sticks. A manual for Multi Rotor mode may be downloaded from the Manuals &
Support tab on the product page for your radio.
When adding channel position warnings, you can now enter positions of up to
150% rather than the previous limit of 100%.
Two new warning types have been added – Center In and Center Out. These
allow you to alarm on a servo position that is within a certain range of center, or
outside a certain range around center.
Configurable Center Tones allow any analog input (stick, knob, or lever/slider) to
provide feedback when passing through center. In addition, this function allows
you to disable the center tone that normally occurs on the knob and sliders. On
voice-capable radios, a spoken alert can be made. Note that this will not provide
telemetry-like data; only the specified sound will be played.
Extended servo/flap/sequencer delay functions to include delays of 33, 36, 40,
45, 52, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180, and 360 seconds. Note that these are for full travel,
so you may need to use a longer delay value to get the time you want for a servo
to travel a shorter distance.
Timers can now be named. There is a prompt for the Timer Name on the Timer
setup screen. This name will be shown on the main screen.
Pressing the BACK button while editing the master volume will end the volume
change interaction as if you pressed the roller wheel. This allows you to do a
quick volume check simply by pressing BACK twice.
The channel monitor can be set per-model from the Extra Settings screen under
the System Settings menu. If you use this setting, it will become the new default
for this model. This feature allows you to see just the channels you need for the
receiver in your model.
You may customize the “Monitor” window on most screens showing channel
status on the left side. When X-Plus is enabled, you can roll to the right until the
box highlights around the monitor window, then click the roller and to select
either the desired channels (see above) or X-Plus channels. This selection will
remain active in all current screens and the full-size Monitor screen until you
select a different setting or power off the radio. On power-up it will return to the
normal format for this model.
When viewing a folder to import a single model, previously the display was
limited to 75 models. It can show up to 175 models now too.
The Left and Right Digital Trims can now be programmed as either Common or
F-Mode for Normal, 2-Pos, or 3-Pos operation.
The model image options to display on the main screen are no longer limited by
model type. You can put any model image you want on the display, or none at
all. We also added more images of popular planes.
You can now capture the LCD image to the SD card. Configure the function by
going to the SD menu (a card must be in the slot), changing the Option to
“Screen Print” and selecting the desired switch. We recommend a momentary
switch such as the Trainer. When the image is saved, you will hear the sound of
a camera shutter. Images will be numbered sequentially and stored in the root
folder of the SD card. It will not overwrite existing images.
When adding a new model from the Model Select screen or Model Utilities, the
new model created is the same type of model (Acro, Heli, or Sail) as the current
model. This will especially benefit pilots who fly one type of model, but will be a
convenient shortcut for most. The Model Type function can still be used to
change the type of the current model.

Corrections
In Acro, with 5 Flight Modes enabled, if you had remapped the channel outputs
then if you go into the Flap System screen, the channel mappings would be
returned to defaults. This reset to defaults no longer occurs.
Timer 2 in Sailplane mode would default to the I switch for activation, but
pressing the switch would not activate it. This has been corrected so that it
works properly now.
When importing models, the analog switch flight mode values were not imported
correctly.
The Digital Switch Setup screen no longer accepts an analog input for editing.
Doing so could cause other problems in the model.
The Trainer screens no longer allow the selection of an analog input as the
trainer control switch, as this could result in a loss of control during a recovery
attempt.
When inserting characters into a name (Flight Mode Name, Model Name) using
the <+> character, extra characters at the end that went beyond the valid length
are now properly trimmed off.
The “Import All” function will now load all models in a folder at one time. This
should help resolve the issues some experienced when attempting to import from
a folder which had more than 75 files in it.
When you changed the Trainer mode several times, it was possible to get into a
mode where there were only 4 channels available to configure.
Editing a mix curve did not always cause the graph to be updated properly.

Audio System Changes
Added “Transmitter Voltage” as a speakable item. We recommend you add it to
the “Telemetry” category. You will need to do this manually.
Values greater than 1999 are spoken correctly.
Several new sounds have been added for Multirotor support. You may add these
to the Multirotor sound category if you desire. The new sound file is version 1.08
and may be downloaded from this link:

Hallo,

ich bitte darum, de folgende Frage nicht als Bashing zu verstehen!

Gîbt es bei HH/Spektrum eigentlich noch eine funktionierende QS?
Beim letzten Update gab es ja auch Bugs, die ganz schnell erkannt worden sind, als die FW veröffentlicht wurde. Und die Prüfung, ob generelle Funktionen wie vorgesehen arbeiten, die sollte nicht so auswändig sein.

Als Außenstehender habe ich den Eindruck, dass sich HH immer mehr darauf konzentriert, möglichst schnell möglichst viele Anfänger-geeignete RTF/BNF-Modelle mit AS3X-miniplatinen bw AR636-Varianten mit SAFE-Funktion auf den Markt zu schmeißen Die notwendigen Anpassungen an deren SW ird mit Hochdruck voran getrieben, die Produktpflege bei den "Fortgeschrittenen-Produkten" fällt dagegen hinten runter. Als Resultat kommen dann immer mehr oder weniger grüne Bananen zum Kunden. Schade.
