@Jlc I will stay on this post and wait for your response.

No it does not show Rx id

Ok I think you are missing a step because I did the same thing when I set mine up. The telemetry didn't work until the numbers appeared. I will go get my notes and get back to you.

@Mikeq got me there! My 14SG now displays the receiver voltage. I said it was something simple. lol

From the link menu select system. From the system screen select/highlight "link". Tx will tone for about 4 seconds in which you then simply turn on the receiver and Yay! It works! Receiver ID stored and voltage is now displayed on the monitor along with link strength.

Here is my dual rx setup. RX 1 is Channels 1-8 RX 2 is Channels 9-16. Just had to change the RX mode then link both RXs. Very easy to do!

Kevin how did you mask the covering around the stringers when you painted the inside. I always paint that texture on all of my firewalls but never do the inside as it seems like a masking nightmare.

That's my problem!...... It's too EASY! lol

I am really liking the 14SG though.

If it was me, I would paint BEFORE covering.

I thought is was an ARF already with the covering on.
