  Hi does anyone own or flown a IGI 2, I can find lots of write ups about the Mefisto but of the IGI 2. Any feed back would be great about how flys, capability, regards to pure glider for slope flying. cheers
- FrSKY G-RX8 won't bind
  
  By Scram · Posted 11 hours ago
  
  Did you flash the V2.0.1 firmware. RC-Soar (Mike S) tells me it is very buggy. Are you trying to bind in D8 or D16? Try the other one, whichever did not bind before. Else maybe one of the earlier earlier versions you can find here: https://www.frsky-rc.com/xjt/ I believe I have 150413 installed on my X9D+ and it binds to a fairly old X4R in D16 mode, giving me telemetry and another X4R in D8 - no telemetry. I may have to flash both to LBT as I understand the Tx will still stay bound to the D8 receivers but I would have to re-bind to any on D16 and maybe flash LBT to those Rx's. ITS A MINEFIELD 🥴
