    Great video. Thanks. Centre all trims before you start. This is critical. I tried it and initially lost my throttle altogether as I hadn't noticed that the trim was all in. Once centred it worked like a charm. Thanks.

After installation only the calibration has to be carried out . I have done this close to your description. Works fine and each stick is now ok again. by the way ... there is no more spektrum support for the dx6i ( no more spare parts .... ?? ) . i have purchased a set of new sticks, and now everething works again. Best Regards from Germany - nearby Frankfurt !!

    Thank you very much for this video ! Very useful !!! I can´t understand that Horizon did not printed this calibration procedure in the manual those days. By the way, did some of you guys noticed that a checksum of the ROM and a Firmware-Date is displayed for a second or two after you use the special key combination and then disappears after you let go those two trim buttons, then the calibration menu is displayed. Might be helpful too for some of us to know how old the firmware is. Mine displays something from 2013...

Can you tell me how to change the stick config as the right stick when moved to the right would make my delta wing go down move right and it would go up or flare push it up and it turns right down left. and this is the reason i have not flown yet. I want the right stick up make the plane go down back up left left and right go right can you video a responce please?

    I followed your video 3 times and my THR, AIL and ELE are still off center.. Do I have to put all my settings to factory default before I do it?

    No, just make sure the sub trims are at zero.

    +paul antonucci How far away are you from the receiver, if you are less than 15 feet away or in a room? that may be the problem.

    +raskco09 Did you put the Throttle hold /mix Switch to on? (Because this opens the memory) and all the others to OFF! before you started ????

    It worked fine, but I think I have a sticky Aileron pot. I will take the back off ans blow out the pot. and try again. Many thanks

    As I suspected. Took the transmitter apart (Plenty of videos on YT for that) Cleaned the potentiometer, re-assembled and then ran through this calibration again. Everything working fine again. Thanks again
