Had a 2 position switch mounted for the turbine for switching off.
Is this possible?
With 2 positions on the trim, things can still go wrong. Have seen it on a three position switch. Turbine turned off but not in cooling phase.

flew with the core last monday with my small petrol box flew with all options gps 3 and gyro. This goes to the rebel classic. But can get used to the core so well. It was going great until the next thing happened.
my throttle servo broke after 8 min.
The hitec d485hw is digital but probably couldn't handle the pulse width. Can this be adjusted have several older aircraft

Ik gebruik een veiligheidsschakelaar met twee standen om te wisselen tussen uitschakeling en stationair draaien. Gedaan via servo cutoff. Ik gebruik nog steeds de gashendel om de turbine te starten. U hoeft de digitale trim helemaal niet te gebruiken

I need help programming the sequencer to pulse a smoke pump using a 3 position switch.
I can get the sequencer to loop and activate on position 3 on a switch, but having difficulty setting position 2 for a set rate, and position 1 as off
I tried using the mixer, but you can only mix a function...
Cant use servo cut because the servo # is not avaliable when used by the sequencer.
What am I missing ?

You mentioned once a servo is assigned a function it can no longer be assigned another function.
This is not true. Example. Function called ailerons. Then another function called crow, then another function called flaps will all drive the same servo

Yes, thats what i was thinking

To be honest I have not tried what you are trying to do
It might be a good idea to post this in the PowerBox online forum. I have had extremely good and positive results from all types of people.
Powerbox support and service is second to none

I LOVE Functions, because everything, including any mixes can be accomplished there. But I can’t think of a way to make it work in Function. Seems like a buddy of mine said he created a virtual switch on his jet. The pulsating smoke is very cool.
Maybe someone knows more about Virtual Switches. Just my thoughts.

I read back to this post. I understand that you can get it to pulse, just not steady. I also just skimmed the manual. I don’t know how to do it, but it seems to me that you would create a virtual switch. Rather then Function or Mixes. Virtual switches can be set up so that, exp: IF this switch is On and this other switch is On, then the virtual switch will work. Or one On, and one Off, then the virtual switch doesn’t work. Or if the first switch is Off, and the second switch is On, the virtual switch still won’t work. But it seems to me that something could be set up there.

Not sure it this will work though.....
Just seams like a lot of steps...still learning this platform
What would also be nice is if you can select FM as a switch for a function or sequencer. As it stands you can only select a switch, virtual switch, telemetry switch or fixed value.

Yep, in the model change screen load the model then in that screen the name of the current model appears on the top left, tap there and you can edit it.
Edit: the picture if there is one may disappear because its based on the model name so you might have to update that too (going from memory which is getting worse every day lol)

Andy,
You mentioning the model picture; reminded me that a lot of Core users have been asking for the ability to put the picture as a widget on a model screen when it get loaded. I wonder if PB will ever give us the option?
