As owners of the Turnigy 9X radio would know there is no printed user manual. Further any such manual would be useless anyway with installation of custom firmware such as tankER9X. Being a simple variant of ER9X users should revert to the online material for ER9X for reference. The first and best place to start is:
https://code.google.com/p/er9x/From there you will find links to all necessary 'bits and pieces'.
This post will focus on the RCXHL and 9X/9XR radio combination to serve as a reference and trouble shooting video guide.
The post will be locked. If you have a problem and want to ask a question please start a separate topic to that your issue may be specifically addressed. Thanks.

9XR Correct Mode Selection
For the 9XR to function in a similar manner to the Heng Long Controller it is necessary to make sure that the correct stick mode is selected. This mode is Mode 3. This video will show you how to setup Mode 3.
