hi guys i need help to remove the battery from tx16s since i bought a new one how can i do it? any kind of help is greatly appreciated thanks!

barren spade
#

how hard can be to unplug that? just pull the cables .

#

those cables are not soldered to your radio.

pine dirge
#

i cant pull it

#

it will make the white thingy stuck

#

but the wire will be fine(?)

#

im new to this thing

polar dirge
#

Just pull it

#

Jst takes a bit

pine dirge
#

pull the white thingy or the wire?

polar dirge
#

White thing at best but wires will do just fine

pine dirge
#

oh is it okay if the white thing is stuck?

#

is that what you meant?

#

i mean the worst case

polar dirge
#

Well not really

#

But is it stuck?

pine dirge
#

not yet

polar dirge
#

Then just pull it out

pine dirge
#

so should i hold the white thing and pull it?

#

not the cable right?

polar dirge
#

Either one

pine dirge
#

ahh gotcha

#

done

polar dirge
#

But i dont think youv got the right kind of battery

pine dirge
#

thanks a lot!

polar dirge
#

No

pine dirge
#

why the battery is wrong?

polar dirge
#

I think youv got the wrong battery

#

Waaait nvm its fine

#

My bad

pine dirge
#

ahhh thanks!

polar dirge
#

Yeah ita fine

#

Np

pine dirge
#

because there are multiple variations

#

and it said it supports tx16s

#

but it didnt mention mark 2 / mk2

polar dirge
#

Its fine

#

Connect the battery correctly and turn it on

pine dirge
#

i havent charged it

#

is it okay?

#

my charger is still on the way

polar dirge
#

Its fine

#

Well they ship it with a bit of charge to not destroy rhe battery

#

If you connect it now and run the battery flat its toast

pine dirge
#

and i heard that the remote can charge the battery?

#

but it will be slow

#

how to charge it?

polar dirge
#

Tx16s?

pine dirge
#

yes tx16s mk2

polar dirge
#

Just connect a usbc to it if it has one?

#

Bottom or top port

pine dirge
#

oh so i put on the battery

polar dirge
#

Yeah

pine dirge
#

and charge the remote using usbc port

#

so it will recharge the battery

#

gotcha!

polar dirge
#

Im not familiar with that transmitter but yeah

#

If it has 2 ports try both

pine dirge
#

what do you use?

polar dirge
#

Pocket

#

My ass poor

pine dirge
#

aah i see

polar dirge
#

Its just fine imo

pine dirge
#

actually since i want to do programming with this

#

claude said i need this

#

so i can change the param without flashiing

polar dirge
#

Probably right

#

Yeah good choice

barren spade
#

for 16txs only the bottom usb is charging, the top is to connect to the PC

pine dirge
#

ahh thanks!

#

soo many helpful people

#

i'm really happy

polar dirge
#

Ok so that seems to be the case for all radiomaster controllers

#

Lol np

pine dirge
#

🦁

pine dirge
#

for some reason it is taller than it should be

#

so i cant close

#

im cooked

polar dirge
#

Well @pine dirge id either cut a hole into the housing or print a replacement shell door

pine dirge
#

there's a little gap

#

but this is okay!

polar dirge
pine dirge
#

im using my macbook adapter

polar dirge
#

Yeah

#

Any one will work

pine dirge
#

thanks!

#

anyway im buying a new one

#

the 6200 one

#

because it is thinner

#

21mm

#

instead of bulky 23.5mm

polar dirge
#

I need a new battery too

#

The ones i use are 1200 mah 😬

pine dirge
#

which one are you getting?

polar dirge
#

It uses 18650 batteries

#

Samsung ones

#

Probably

pine dirge
#

ah gotcha!

#

thats convenient

barren spade
#

im using a phone charger with usb c cable

pine dirge
#

great!

pine dirge
#

i connect it but nothing happens

#

no popup or smth

polar dirge
#

Use top usbc port

pine dirge
#

oh i think i need to use express lrs first(?)

polar dirge
#

No

pine dirge
polar dirge
#

Use top usbc port

pine dirge
#

yes i did!

polar dirge
#

Use windows pc

pine dirge
#

i dont have it

#

but i saw on youtube

#

there will be popup window

#

appearing

#

but not on my end

#

done!

#

it is the power source

#

cant use usbc directly from my mac

#

need to use dongle and then connect it to usbc

#

so usbc-usb-usbc

polar dirge
#

Thats mac issue

pine dirge
#

yep correct!

polar dirge
#

Well good for you

barren spade
