So... I feel like a complete doofus here, but for the life of me I can't seem to be able to load a model config to my Devo 10. I took delivery of the radio today, uploaded Deviation and managed to set up my first DSMX model (a Blade Inductrix). I even managed to set up a timer that works. Not sure if it's set up right, but it works.

What I haven't managed to do is figure out how to change into Agility Mode, so I thought I'd just import an .ini file that already has everything set up correctly. Simple, right? You'd think so, but even though I drag the file into the correct directory on my Devo 10 (in USB mode), and it shows up in the list on my computer, the file does not show up in the list on the transmitter. And I cannot load a model that is not in the list! So what am I doing wrong? ???

In order to recognize model files should be named modelXX.ini, so you need to rename the downloaded file, and overwrite one on the TX.

D'oh! It just goes to show you - I was at this too long today! I mean, it's so clear now - if the radio memory is full of empty model configs, all I have to do is rename the file *exactly like one of those empty model configs, and voila! It works!

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. :)

Is this renaming taking place within "models" file or where?

The mistake I made was that I *added another file to the transmitter. Didn't even occur to me that with all the empty configs in there the radio was already full, or that it will only recognise the model names that it was programmed for. As soon as I renamed the new file *exactly the same as one of the model names in the transmitter's "models" directory, and replaced the original file, the model magically appeared! :)
