[NSRCA-discussion] 12X Failure

[Jon Lowe]

You should have gotten the new PCDATA Transfer cable when you bought 
your 12x.  Came in the box along with the software.  Connects via USB.  
Datasafe support ended with the 9303.  There is a replacement for the 
Datasafe for the older JR models also.

Hi guys,

I just wanted to see if anyone has experienced this problem with their 
12X.

I went out to fly Saturday and as usual, before the first flight, I 
turned on
the transmitter holding the "enter" button to get the model select
menu...selected the appropriate model and then when I hit the "enter" 
button to
get to the "flying screen" The display started to "flash" with no 
display on the
screen.  I turned off the transmitter and restarted and the screen 
continued to
just flash.  If I turned it on holding the "enter button" I can get the 
system
menu, but can't get to the "flying screen".  I also tried taking the 
battery out
and re-inserting....no change.

Needless to say it is on it's way back to Horizon Land.

On another note, before sending it off, I tried to back up the programs 
and it
seems that "Data Safe" isn't compatible with the 12X!  My version is 
old, so I
went to the website looking for an update...couldn't find one- though 
there is
an article there from 2007 saying that there is an update making it 
9303
compatible.

Fortunately, a friend has a "spare" 12X that is waiting to be sold and 
I was
able to transfer the memory directly to it via DSC and will use it 
until my unit
gets back from service.

Any thoughts Troy and team JR?
