Sooo, might be a bit of a long winded thread but I guess it is better to explain everything from the start.
After looking at quads and other drones for a long time, late 2016 I took the opportunity of a hobbyking deal to get my first quad called the fpv250 which to my understanding is a reboxed Diatone model.
I did quite a bit of reading at the time in order to find the right transmitter and I settle for a turnigy 9X which was affordable, expendable (due to the 8ch) and seemed reliable.
I was originally using a KK 2.1.5 as suggested by HK, build went fine but I didn't had any fpv gear to start with so I started to fly line of sight at first.
After a few month, I can't remember how and why I did it but I fried my FC and my receiver.
I ordered a spare receiver and I swapped my KK for a Naze32
In the meantime I did the "resistor mod" on my Turnigy 9X" which allows to use the transmitter on a simulator (fpvfreerider) without having to disconnect the transmitting part of the remote everytime.
Few month went by because life is busy and in the meantime I also bought a wizard X220 after reading/hearing a lot of good about it.
Here's where I am at now : both FC in both quads have been flashed to the latest firmware, both quad are recognized under cleanflight or betaflight, both receiver seem to pair with the Turnigy 9X
However I am getting absolutely no response from the quads when using the transmitter, by that I mean the config screen in both software shows absolutely no input.
So I tried : binding both receiver again, disabled the "trainer mode" on the 9X, checked if any pins were bended/damaged on the transmitter (none were), removed the resistor and recreated a direct path on the board, remapping of the input, checked I was using PPM
nothing worked ..
I seem to run out of options so any help/idea would be greatly appreciated
