Re: Turnigy 9x flashing with FTDI adaptor.

To flash the firmware into your 9X you need a USBasp. They are cheap and you can order them either from hobbyking http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__27990__USBasp_AVR_Programming_Device_for_ATMEL_proccessors.html?strSearch=usbasp

or from ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/USBasp-USBISP-3-3V-5V-AVR-Programmer-USB-ATMEGA8-ATMEGA128-New-/130682846209?hash=item1e6d4dfc01:g:Y00AAMXQTT9RyEjT

I would recommend the e-bay one because it has the option for 3.3V and 5V.

Or you can also use an arduino board like uno or mega and use as ISP

@tahmadblr

Here is a tutorial about flashing 9X (it's not mine though)

http://aeroquad.com/showthread.php?6764-Flashing-a-Turnigy-or-FlySky-9X

For flashing procedure, head over to my website for a step by step tutorial with pictures. You will find there everything you need (how to install usbasp drivers, companion9x, download firmware, flash it to your radio). The only thing that's different, is that you don't have to choose mavlink (unless you are connecting to APM) so choose whatever options you like. So open:

http://www.myrcflight.com/open-lrs.html

and start reading from

2. Flashing Turnigy 9XR with OpenTx firmware

It is the same procedure with 9X as well.
