| Post subject: | ASP turnigy mac ? |
Hi Kevin, I have got an ASP but am having trouble wiring it and programming my turnigy 9x. First, i am not sure of the sequence for the wires ( red white yellow etc.) from the 7 channel receiver input to the turnigy receiver. Second, the cannon flash/LED connection has 3 pins, but i only have 2 on my LED. What pins do i use ? Third, and this is the difficult one, how can i program my turnigy 9x which doesn't use tanker erx but the pilot version. I have managed to manually program it to work with mako2 / rc5hl / rx18. I know that you have a download file to install a program template into the turnigy however, as I am only on a mac based comp this file errors and is unusable. Possibly an instruction manual ? Hope you can help. Cheers Afrikakorps |

Hey There Ok if you flip Asp over you will see the labelling for the receiver. There are V0,V+CH1 and then nothing until CH7. Of course when you plug in the receiver cable the wires can only be ONE way. There is also the new wiki site for reference. Sorry as the old Wiki was attacked by spambots and had to be disabled. The site is here: http://rctanksaustralia.com/guides Now as to the wires: V0 - Black V+ - Red Channel 1 Steering White Channel 2 Throttle Yellow Channel 3 Gun elevation Orange Channel 4 Turret Green Channel 5 Switching Blue Channel 6 Sound control Purple Channel 7 Weapons Grey Asp follows the Tamiya pattern of RTEA (Rud, Thr, Ele, Ail) which is the same for the RC5H .... Ok the question about the flash was first asked here by Gra but there have been so many posts even I can't find it. You use the two outside pins of the three connector (the middle is blank). Again turn Asp over - by convention all V0 pads are Round or oval, V+ pads are square or rectangular and signal pads are octagons. The negative wire for your LED goes to the top pin the positive wire for your led goes to the bottom pin (signal pin) (closest to the recoil connector) Ok as you point out the last part isn't about Asp but more about your radio. Any instruction manual for Asp is only a few lines. Set sticks up on channels 1-4 Channel 1 Steering White Channel 2 Throttle Yellow Channel 3 Gun elevation Orange Channel 4 Turret Green Setup switches (as many as your radio will allow) on CH5 and CH7 such that they can be toggled from neutral (1500us) to either +100% (2000us) or -100% (1000us) and set a pot to CH6 at about 65% of available range. This is more of how well one knows their own radio and not something that can be featured in an Asp manual At startup have all channels in neutral (though not critical for CH6 if controlling volume) To turn on flip/toggle a CH5 switch from neutral (1500us) to either 100 or -100% - to turn off it is long switch to +100%. To fire Main gun it is whatever switch you have set to +100% on CH7 to fire MG it is whatever switch you have set to -100% on CH7. That is the basics for operation. Problem with the factory 9X is that you are not able to assign all of those lovely switches to anything useful. I'm not sure that the factory 9X firmware is even able to make these edits. I will not have a factory 9X till next week and I shall have a look and post back here results. Also since your Asp went I have included operation on 4 ch and 6 ch. IF you got a programming dongle then the upcoming V5 update will allow for a very simple no-brainer plug in and go 4 channel operation mode. Cheers Kevin G |

Thanks Kevin, I checked out all the new info on the wiki and it was very helpful.  I still have a bit to learn but at least my sturmtiger is now driving and has sound. Cheers Afrikakorps |

It would be great if you posted what you did to help out anyone else with a factory 9X. I had a look at the factory 9X today and I gave up in less than 2 minutes. Cheers KG |
