hi there i received a used typhoon h as a gift a while back, ive noticed the j3 functions were only going to 50% forward and back. i flew it anyways and definitely noticed the issue. while i was filming the issue to share here all of the sudden more issues arose, all of the sudden the j1, j2 are completely pinned to 100% and the k1, k2, k3 are all not responsive, I did a firmware update and factory reset is this a hardware issue? here is a couple quick videos of the issue
st16 malfunction
- Thread starter tverdier
- Start date
No harware reset, it is useless and will not solve the problem
The potentiometers are dirty or oxidized
Cleaning (possibly disassembly of the radio) of all the potentiometers of the radio with cleaner and deoxidizer for electronics like WD contact cleaner, operate the handles in all directions to clean them properly and then reassemble everything.
Then recalibrate the radio.
You will find tutorials on the forum by doing a search.
If a joystick still does not work afterwards, it will have to be changed.
