JR XP-7202 mode1 to mode 2 conversion
I have purchased a JR XP7202 Mode 1. I thought I can change the mode . Oh nooo this version can not be convertible . Firm upgrade is needed to convert this. No problem let's open the box.. there are 6 philips screws to be loosen.

Conversion still in progress. After removal of sender pcb power pcb has been removed too. Then left and right stick holders have been removed . Now it is time to interchange throttle and elevator trim and pot . Before the installation we have to change the cables too.

Simply can not be done . Since this is sophisticated transmitter mix functions will not work. Moreover throttle and elevator trims work different .Throttle trim is only actived when the stick below the middle point .

Dear Caffinatedbear
As you can see below 4 cables should be cut and resoldered for each channel . In other words 4 cables for elevator , 4 cables for throttle.

Can you explain a bit more about the trim working after this conversion. You say that trims on the display will remain as before. so I just set up the trims properly looking at the mechanics of the heli and never mind the display? . Thanks

After conversion trims work properly. With the conversion , only the polarity of the trims and sticks have been changed. No problem at all If you do not take care the trims on the display.

RE: JR XP-7202 mode1 to mode 2 conversion
I have a question for you. Those 4 wires do I have to solder throttle wires to the place where elevator wires where? Thanks Marcel
I did conversion from mode 2 to mode 1 :-)
