Channel wobble with Deviation 4.0.1 and Phoenix

Hi!
I have installed deviation 4.0.1 to my Devo 10/w and want to use the Phoenix Sim 5.0 with the model file postest by Mike Meyer ( deviationtx.com/forum/model-configs/2013-devo-10-on-phoenix ).

So far, so good. The Channel output information of the Devo10 tells me, that all functions are working well, just like Mike described it.

Now the problem: i dont get the devo10 with this model calibrated. For e.g. the throttel should go from -100 to 100 when AILE DR is 1. When AILE DR is 0, ch8 should go from -100 to 100 (pitch, and thr is fix). Instead of correct values i get wobbleing inputs. The bars are flickering. It seems that the signal is changing from high to low. Just like the bars you get, when your porfile in phoenix is not calibrated. But that the problem! I want to calibrate!

The channels 1,2,4 and the switches on ch5,6 are doing their job. No problems here.

The Devo10 seems to be ok. The chanel output display shows no steps or jumps in the channelvalues, when i move the sticks or switches.

I hope you get my problem...

Is anybody out there using a Devo10 with Mikes model.ini an deviation 4.0.1 ???

Has andybody also such flickering bars in Phoenix?

Any ideas???

(sorry for my english...)

What Dongle did you use?
Switch to USBHID protocol.
Connect to your pc via USB.
Did it work correct in windows control pannel?

Hi Jushua, thanks for your reply.
I use the original usb dongle that comes with phoenix5.

Ok, changed to USBHID. AND IT WORKED!

So its a problem of phoenix!

This is what the pheonix support says:

Please note that this channel can only be calibrated with a switch control as far as we are aware – it cannot be calibrated with a proportional control (e.g. stick, slider or rotary knob).

Any ideas? When you read the article of Mike Meyers (deviationtx.com/forum/model-configs/2013-devo-10-on-phoenix), his model.ini should work together with phoenix...

Channel 8 is proportional controlled! (when i get it right)

Is anybody out there who is using a devo10 and phoenix5 ??? Maybe you can check this model.ini with your devo and phoenix...

I've been tweaking my config for a while now, so I'm not sure if channel 8 on the current config is proportional or not.

In any case, recent version of Phoenix requires that proportional channels be 0 (on the -100 .. 100 scale) during the "center all the sticks" step. So for that, you'll want to be in airplane mode, with AUX4 and AUX5 centered, and FMODE and MIX in the center.

Calibrate the sticks, AUX4 and AUX5 (which will also calibrate the pitch channel). Finally switch ELE DR and GEAR to 1 to calibrate the switches.

Mike, thank you for your quick reply!

The calibration works now much better with FMODE and MIX in the middle position. But ch7 and ch8 are still wobbeling around. It seems to be that they cant decide if they are at max/min or at AUX-value. You can see the bars move, so they get the output of the devo, but there is still the wobble.

In cp mode (AILE 0) the heli goes up and down, just like the pitch (ch8) wobbles.

Mike, you didnt had that issues? The support of Phoenix tells me, that ch8 isnt a proportional channel. It will only act to a switch.

Any futher ideas?
