Hi all
i could remember when this tx arrived to me i was quite disappointed to see that ch5 and ch6 2 and 3 position switches
today i opened it and replaced thos ch5 and ch6 with variables .
1.remove tx batt. Open the tx 4screws on back and gently remove back.
2. There u can see 2 small rectangular pcb namely g3 a and g3b
3. Desolder the swith and replace with a 1k ohm potentiometer
4. Repack it
sorry i am a electronics guy so i dont know how to apply the settings of othe variables on these aux channels.
I also did a mod to add 2 more channels to the tx but i only have rz6 so i dont recieve those 7th and 8th channel . But stay tuned i will soon fing out .
Thanks
feel free to ask, pm or call.

Any body familiar with cc2500 might help me recieve those 7th and 8th channels
Tanmay can you post steps with pics? looks interesting.
Tanmay, I have a bare CC3000 laying around, if that's of any help. Although, I think it runs WiFi protocol.
Thanks anjan for the help
but i need help via information .
Dharmik sir i am currently on wap will post soon
photo sequence
u just have to replace switch with pot
2nd photo shows wire for 7th channel
that is cool. i have APM and to get all six modes like loiter, pos hold i need six position switch. i think we can mode rcb6i for that too.
Yes easily bt i needed a variable so i did so .
U can use a 6 pos switch i dont have it readily.
Does anyone knows contact number of rc bazaar officials?
:headscratch: RCb7i {:)}
Tanmay Mathur... this is some great work by you. Maybe we can change the RCB6i to 7ch soon in full scale production... and we will be launching a 8ch receiver soon...
and finally we are working on a Long range module (DIY) for the avionic radios with range of around 5Kms... should be ready in a couple of months...
anyways on this rcb6i Mod.. good thought and great work from you :hatsoff:
regards

Sujju sir those words from there mean a lot to me .
Thanks a lot .
Sir, it would be great if you provide me with the contact number of some person who is involved in the dovelopment of the radio or altealst knows about the electronics.
Thanks in advance
And by my side .
In rcb6i , module could not be changed untill unless the whole motherboard is changed . As i see rf module and microprocesser are in a shngle pcb .
What could be done at max to increase range is add a rf amplifier at the stock antennae output.
Cheers
will soon post about a diy radio with orange LRS after my boards exam probably after 17 march . that'll be a 9 CH radio under. 8000
goodbye for a while
could call me on. 9929706542
Good news for rcb6i owners .
I found the way to adapt the software to utilise the 7th channel .
It would need a stlink or st link mini dongle .
Nice work Tanmay.
Modding the RCB OS10 is even simpler. It already has a micro-USB port.
Any scope of using external module with rcb6i?, like taking ppm signal to flysky module for flying v911 with my favourite rcb6i?
Yes easily but the transmitter will need to be in simulator mode.
Discovered one more thing regarding the tx module i.e. Cc2500 that its limiting the transmission power . The tx says its transmitting with 20db but its not. I hope some programming expert should help me . Hardwarely only thing that could be done that is 1 diode should be remove in the module.
what was the advantage of adding the 7th channel?
Why people buy 9x not a t6 ? 3 more channels. more channels =more functions.
Now plan to add a patch antennae. Stock antenneae is only reliable upto 700metres. also will add 1 more dsc port for head tracker. will introduce a charging port to charge tx lipo. It would be nice to have a programming port but programming is not my cup of tea.
Thanks all
make a video on it please!
Okay sir will try my best.
It shall take a while.
Now the flaperon mixing is fully functional.
Will make a model with flaperon mixing.
@Tanmay.mathur
Great work sir may do with my own
Well I don't like the rx v2
Rz6 v2 has ppm but on bat. Port
So if any of us is using onto esc (multicoptor) we cannot power the Fc through tx
Why not you can use femal header jumper cords.
Currently using the rx as wireless simulator dongle.
Gives me 300 metre+ range. :-p

i think you mean the rx.
The flaperon mixing is not working . My aim for the mod . Totaly sad . Disappointed. When i flap down the flap just deflect 1 or1.5 degrees. What to do ?
When you are at 1-6 mixing:
Press exit and increase the positive/negative percentage according to your needs
Whatever i do nothing throw increment.
Totally disappointed
All this in 2 pos switch mode . I cant expect to work it in variable mode
Can u provide this hack for long range
Not possible without antennae swaps or module change,
A less better ways in enLinked below

and what about modding it to 7 channel did u get any success
Hey can anyone upload firmware for rcb6i i will try to mod it to 8 channel
