Hold: occurs when 45 consecutive frame losses occur. If a hold occurs during flight
or during a range test, re-evaluate the system. Relocate the receiver and/or check
to make sure the transmitter and receiver are working correctly.
TIP: It is important to note the flight log data is reporting the reception quality of
the Spektrum signal received at the model. It does not represent the telemetry
link strength. The control link can take advantage of multi-link technology, while
the telemetry signal cannot. It is normal for the telemetry reception to be less
robust that the control link.
The operational differences between DSM2
®
and DSMX
®
receivers cause some
expected differences in the telemetry data collected between the two systems.
DSMX is frequency agile, while DSM2 finds two quiet channels and remains
on those channels. Consequently, because DSMX operates on quiet and noisy
channels, it’s common to have more Antenna Fades and Frame Losses than when
using DSM2 in busy 2.4GHz environments.
