I was using my futaba and it was working on the first freerider version. Since I installed the freerider recharged version, my controller doesnt work anymore on both version. What is going on and what should I do to fix it ? Thanks

Same with my Taranis X9D. I've gone through the calibration procedure in the new Recharged version about 10 times and I can't get it to complete successfully. Sometimes one stick or the other swings the circle on the screen way past the edges of its box to either side and the other axis on that stick doesn't register at all. Sometimes it seems to work okay and right at the end the pitch overwrites the input for the roll and it says "DONE!" But there's an axis missing every time. The whole procedure seems buggy.
Thanks for your work on the new version. The graphics look great... but I can't do much with them without my roll axis. :)
"If the automatic stick detection selects the wrong channel, you can try clicking on the circle that you see is the right one. (That is, one of the little circles on the calibration screen)."
I've been trying this and I still can't get it to work, I'm also doing this on the new version you just put out.
Yaw and throttle works fine. The next circle is roll, and the arrow shows the right stick to the left, as it should. However, my pitch channel moves this third circle, not my roll. Still wouldn't be a big deal here as I could always swap my roll and pitch channels on the Taranis. If I move my pitch up and hit OK it is saved as roll and the roll turns green; finally, when it asks for pitch (4th position), my roll channel acts like a two-position switch, when I move it left it activates the 4th circle to the top, but there is no in-between range. I press OK when it's in the high (bright white) position and the circle does not update -- it's still a gray circle, yet the wizard moves on, and he channel is not recognized in the final test screen.
After I switched pitch with roll in the Taranis I noticed that the third circle showed properly, but also acted like a 2-position switch. And when it was in the high position (bight white circle) I pressed OK and nothing happened and the wizard moved on. Then the same happened with pitch -- it acted like a 2-position switch, and after I finished the calibration both axes were inactive.
It seems that for some reason some channels are being read as a two-position switch, or something has changed in the way we're supposed to configure the transmitter. This happens consistently on the roll channel.
This all worked with legacy Freerider... I don't know what's causing it, but I've done my best to explain the issue I'm seeing.
Hey Guys,
Similar Problem here with getting my Taranis X9D to calibrate. Worked flawlessly before but now my throttle control seems to be bugging out. It will only detect inputs on the upper and lower end of the throttle, basically either full throttle or no throttle. In calibration, I'm not able to center the throttle stick, all other inputs calibrate just fine. For whats it worth, the level inputs on the Taranis display fine in Channel Monitor with 0 to 100 for throttle, and 50 as the mid point for all other channels. I'm using the same profile that worked not 2 months ago in Legacy Freerider. Not sure if its something on my end with the Taranius, but any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
having this same issue - latest osx build - calibration is just awful. seems to assign the yaw incorrectly and so some sticks work, others don't. my current models worked perfectly. seems to be an issue just on OSX
Edit: Clicking the circles is the only way to get this working on a new macbook. Was using a model that previously worked connecting to a windows install.
Note: one issue I am still having is that FPV freerider takes a moment to detect the sticks are centered instead having them all at min range. So you can get it working in calbration by just wiggling the sticks - they will center out. You must do this during calibration and before each takeoff in the sim.
