Binding to an Eachine QX65 with DSMX / DSM2 was created by ArmorBearer
Hello everyone!

After a long hiatus, I've decided to get back into flying. Over Christmas, I ordered an Eachine QX65 whoop-style drone assuming that I would be able to bind it to either my Devo 7E or my Devo 10 utilizing Deviation. To be completely honest, I'm in over my head. I've spent the last week searching for an article or a video online that I could use to guide me through the process to no avail. I'm assuming that I don't know enough about the process in order to word my search in such a way that would yield a positive result. Any assistance would be very much appreciated!

I am doing the same thing. I have both a Devo 10 and a F12E transmitter and would like to use this firmware update to control my Eachine QX65. I assume you purchased one that had the DSM2/DSMx receiver?

From what I've been able to gather on my own, it appears that any Walkera TX will need an add-on device in order to bind with a DSM2 / DSMX reciever. So much for saving money....

Anyway, the best deal that I could find online was on HobbyKing for $35.00 USD. Everywhere else that checked with that carried them wanted $50.00 or more. Here's the name of the add-on in case you want to have a look yourself:

OrangeRX DSMX/DSM2/Devo Compatible 2.4GHz Selectable Transmitter Module (JR/Turnigy Compatible)

All, except the Devo7, only need the Deviation firmware.... ;-)
....saving even more money.

That's great!

#1. Does your list of transmitters that only need the firmware include the 7E?

#2. Any pointers on how to bind to a DSM2 / DSMX?z

Thanks for your input!

Select the protocol on the tx. Put the receiver in bind mode. Press bind on the tx. Usually the receiver will indicate somehow it is bound, like an LED change. With DSM then move the sticks on the tx to exit bind mode. This is done because some DSM receivers set the failsafe at this point.

Based off the statement made on the getting started page, www.deviationtx.com/wiki/get_started_with_deviationtx , the DSM2/DSMx is supported by all devo Transmitters with the deviation firmware installed. The standard in-built RF module i would believe to be what was provided when purchased, not something new.. Yes?

If you have successfully installed deviation, you can start using these protocols, supported by the standard in-built RF module:

Walkera DEVO
Wakera WK2401
Wakera WK2601
Wakera WK2801
DSM2
DSMX
Nine Eagles J6Pro
