Important.
The TURNIGY 9X has been reflashed with the new v2 firmware, fixing previous menu and mixing issues. This firmware flash is only available from our TURNIGY 9X system as we flash each unit in our office before it is shipped.
Purchases of any other rebranded version of the TURNIGY 9X will not have the latest firmware and patches (even the OEM factory does not have these updates).

Now my question is, "How do they do it"? All I've read requires a Smartieboard or fashioning a special wire harness soldered onto the mainboard plus another USB connecting card.
I'm sure they have a quicker and easier way at the "Office" and they don't dismantle every radio to do so, or do they?

probably pre-program the chip in externel boards before assembly
I don't care what it says on the profile - I'm so NOT GB!

This same claim is made by every supplier/modifier of this radio. It must come as part of the hype package from manufacturer.

There are several ebay sellers marketing different iterations of the same thing and they all include this crapsky.

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes & dreams.

Hey folks, i'm moving this to the new 9X sub-forum in the Transmitter section. I would like to keep all threads pertaining to this radio in the same place.
Uncontrolled contact with terrain is a bad thing.

LOL, I might have known. Comprehending Chinglish is not one of my strong points.

Pardon my ignorance, Is this the same radio as the Fly Sky FS - TH9X sold by a competitor for almost twice as much?

And they all claim to flash them V2 in their office before shipment.

Hello! I bought a Turnigy 9x and It did NOT come with ANY documentation, and worse, It gives the dreaded " Switch Error" Message in the display. Any body got any help here?
I just got the radio in the last shipment from China. 3 weeks ago...

Make sure all switches are turned away from you when powering up!
