hi i got a lightbridge 2
i conectet the lb2 with ah dji a2 flight controller and try to fly with it, the take of goes well but when i try to pull in the landing gear there is nothing hepening.
so i conectet the a2 to the asistant software, when i push the gear switch up and down you can see that the gear bar moves not anove to both sides  (look the video).but when i usse my fatuba controller the landing gears works perfectly, so i think that the lightbridge 2 the problem of the not working landing gear is,
is there some whone who has any exsperianse with this or some whone who can help my with this problem.

yes but thats not the problem, the landing gear works good with the futuba transmitter but i want use the lightbridge transmitter to fly the drone.
when i reverse the gear setings in the asistant software and i push the switch up the landing gears goes up, but than is lowering the gear an problem because the slider staiy's in the upper part of the beam.

I'm not understanding something...the video is of the A2 assistant right? And are you saying that with the Futaba and A2 the gear works fine? Gear goes up and down? But when you connect the Lightbridge the gear only goes up or when you reverse goes down..right? I'm asking because if thats the A2 assistant then your end points are off and your gear should only work one way...but you're saying it works fine? Thats where I'm confused...can you give a little more info?

Could you happen to provide a screenshot of your RC settings via the A2 and your settings through the LB2 Assistant?

i try to explane with this two video's


this first video is of te futuba transmitter, on this one is the landing gear working fine. when i push the switch up you can see in the asistant of the dji a2 that the gear is up and down when i push the switch down, when i tap the reverse is up down and down is up. so this is working fine


in this video im ussing the lightbridge 2 rc, the arow is on the ''up'' side of the bar and when im push te switch down, the arow moves a litle to the right but he's stay's on the ''up'' side in the bar. when i put the setting in the reverse the arow is on the ''down'' side of the bar, when i push the switsh down the arow moves a litle to the left but now he stays on the ''down'' side. i hope that this is enough info for you.
this is the reason wy i think that this is te problem of the not working landing gear.

In the first video you seem to have it mapped to a 3 position switch and you are showing Channel 6 in the assistant. In the second video you seem to have a 2 position switch and you have it mapped to Channel 5. In LB 2 the gear should be mapped to channel 5 and a 2 position switch on your Futaba. If you have it mapped to a 2 position switch then your end point settings are off. You can go into your menu in the Futaba and adjust the end points. You can watch the settings change in the assistant. If that isnt the problem then use another 2 position switch.

Sorry, I did mean to say the Assistant 2 Software which yes you would only have access to firmware information. To bettery clarify, it would be nice to verify what firmware you have on the Lightbridge along with what's in the A2 Assistant.

When you say the Home button does not work, do you mean that it does not seem to react in the channel mapping section of the A2 Assistant or does it not work on the field? We've had reports where it does not seem to react in the Assistant Software, but it does work when in actual use. Having mismatched firmware could be potentially causing the issue, did you notice the landing gear issue when using the latest ground unit firmware?

he don't react in the channel mapping and on the controller to, he's not beeping and the light don't blink.
im not sure if he is react in the field because I didn't try it because I was scared of problems. and the landing gear problem stays the same before the update.
