Title: Orange rx firmware update tool
Post by: yash10896 on September 29, 2014, 08:45:16 AM
hello fellow members..

just while buying rc item from sundaram sir he sent me an orange rx firmware tool as freebie but i don't think i would be needing it and would like to donate it to someone in need of it..
the buyer will have to bear shipping charges and that's it no other cost..
you can check the item here :

Yash, I have ordered 2.4GHz DSM2 supermicro reciever and OrangeRx 2.4GHz tx JR module from hobbyking. not sure if it will be useful for either of the above. I am hoping that it will be useful for the OrangeRx Tx module. (it is 2.4GHz, not 433MHz LRS). If it is useful, please give it to me and I will pay for the shipping.

Hi Yash, As I said earlier, I still do not have the module in my hand. My friend has ordered it from hobbyking and he is going to carry it to India. So I can not show you the picture of it.
Link to hobbyking SKU: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__51704__OrangeRX_DSMX_DSM2_Compatible_2_4Ghz_Transmitter_Module_JR_Turnigy_compatible_US_Warehouse_.html (http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__51704__OrangeRX_DSMX_DSM2_Compatible_2_4Ghz_Transmitter_Module_JR_Turnigy_compatible_US_Warehouse_.html)

I could not find any compatibility data explicitly mentioned either in orangerx site or hobbyking site. From the customer reviews in hobbyking and internet search, I can confirm that it works with DSM2 module (in fact, all orangerx modules) for swapping the channel order.

Some of the Bind and fly models, it is very difficult/impossible to swap the servo connections. Firmware updater can be used to change the channel order.

It can also be used to upgrade the module if new firmware is available at any time (highly unlikely)

It will be for sure useful to me but not immediately as I don't have any Bind and fly models but if there comes a need to update firmware or I buy a bind and fly model, it will be useful to me.

Yes the firmware update tool is compatible with the tx module orange rx DSM2 posted in the link.

but are you sure this module is compatible with super micro Rx which you are saying you are buying.

Sir, I have ordered the one which is DSM2 compatible.

Please let me know if I  have overlooked something. You suggested me (over PM) to go for OrangeRx (DSM) than Hobbyking supermicro as DSM2 is more widely used. based on my priorities.
