What defaults mate please?
u mean the drivers?
@@bugsy742 Look at around the 3 minute mark in the video where he is showing the inputs in OpenTX. You can leave them as stock without changing them now.

Thank you so much for this! This is like a full-on course/class on this. I'm super intimidated by this, I have no idea what I'm doing and no previous experience in anything even remotely (no pun intended) related to anything radio or FPV related. I'm following along very intently trying to keep up even though I don't understand any of the numbers, settings, frequencies, charts, words, terms, or what any of the jargon means but I'm super excited to do this and you're making it accessible for me by even having this! Even though I'm still early and confused I have no idea how anyone would navigate this without a video like this. Since I am hesitantly investing the limited money I have into this hobby I very much appreciate you putting this up!
Thank you so much for this playlist on the TX16S! I just got back into FPV and I picked up this radio and I have been looking for someone explaining how to set it up and use all the features! Made a subscriber out of me!
Glad I could help!
Very timely and thorough. Excellent explanation of all the steps. Thank you so much for your hard work.
I left all my inputs at 100% and it works good that way, and I also rolled back the driver on my laptop to get it to connect. Top notch instructions .
Thanks for bringing this up. I was unaware that it now worked, "out of the box". I do notice subtle differences while flying between the settings, but both work. I would be interested in getting your feedback on trying it the other way and see which one you like better.
This video is a gem. My controller is working halfway through the video. Problems solved, Thank you and happy new year.
Glad it helped. Happy New Year!
Thank you. This Tutorial Helped me get back into playing Liftoff after a year of it not working (due to window updates)
Mr Steve haha! Absolutely killing it. Easy to follow and your speech is very clear and easy to understand. Thankyou
Sweet! Great to hear, thanks!
Life saver! Thank you for this. Easiest follow along and worked perfectly the first time. Subscribed!
Glad it helped!
Thanks sooo much. I'm flying in Lift Off. If you took 3 hours, i would have taken three days to figure it out! thanks again for taking the time to make the video and the comprehensive explanation.
Glad it helped!
A big thanks for this great video. it helped me so much. and all the other video you made. i just got my TX16S and i was a little lost. i am new in the hobby and i needed your videos
Glad I could help!
Thank you, great series.
Man i finally got it and seens they changed up the app a bit and my remote works great abd was able to calibrate in the game you rock man i was bout to pull out what haur i had left
Tahoe Steve I just wanted to thank you for your SUPER AWESOME videos. You have the perfect amount of detail. All your videos are very well done! Thank you!!
If you could only teach me to fly!!! I am very new to FPV. Got any videos on that? There have got to be a lot of rookie things that you just need to know how to overcome. Folks he have gotten past these mistakes probably don't think about them. For example, I tend to come out of stuff yawed from my actual heading. For real and in Liftoff. Clearly I am doing something wrong. I "think" I am not coordinating turns well. I have have an enormous difficulty flying straight, say over a straight fence, as well as maintaining altitude. Perhaps this is just practice. Liftoff seems to be realistic enough that I plan to spend a lot of time figuring these things out in the SIM.
I appreciate that!
Unfortunately, stick time is the best teacher. Good luck, it will come. It's not easy, but it WILL come
Awesome!! Thank you so much for your time and effort that you put into this video! Not only did you show how but also explained why on somethings and it really helped me a lot! Thank you again!
You're very welcome!
This is THE VIDEO! Thank you, Sir. I have subbed and look forward to checking out your existing library and your future content.
Only thing missing is assigning functions in the Sim to switches and what-not. But that's probably somewhere in another video you made...?
Awesome video and excellent time saver. Thank you!!!
You are the man... I really appreciate this video
Thanks for this! wohoo.. im doing everything in reverse with this hobby. built 5 drones already.. just started doing sims.. -__- took some time to get an actual proper TX.. thanks so much!
Have fun!
Very good thanks. I had to change the offsets to 100, 0 to get it working with Velocidrone. So if people are finding that their controls are all on 50% that's the reason.
WOW! that's exactly what I needed. Lots of steps but as you said it's definitely worth it. In my opinion you're the best on UA-cam. How to I contribute to all the work you put into this?
Grate video mate thank you
Thanks for putting this together! Looking forward to setting mine up tonight. I'll be doing split s' over Bardwell's trees in no time 😃. Subscribed.
Have fun! Watch out for Bardwell, he gets excited if you fly over his house at night
@@TahoeSteve Just tried tonight. My tx16s prompts me USB storage or Joystick. i pick joystick but my computer still sees it as a mass storage device with no joystick driver to be found.
Great tutorial, thanks. They appear to have addressed the tx16s driver issue, it was plain sailing.
Such a great help!!! THANK YOU .. Liked and subscribed
Thanks for the sub!
I had the honor to be the 1000th like on this video. Thank you sir :)
Thanks a lot! Congrats from Brazil!
Welcome!!
Great video
Thank you!
Very useful thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
you are a life saver! thanks very much.
Glad to help
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
great video! im keen to get this game and transmitter! subbed!
Thanks for the sub!
thank you man! very many thanks! you great!
You're welcome!
I'm assuming you have to have a laptop or computer with a good graphics software before you could play lift off?
Awesome video. This is priceless!
Huge thanks!
Yes you do
finally i can train flying in acro mode ! ！ huge thank you
Glad I could help!
hello great tutorial. I have a radiomaster recently, I'm learning from your movies. I have a question I am currently practicing on liftoff I did everything as you showed in the video. however, I can't set the restart on one of the radio buttons. I have to use R on the computer keyboard. want to have this set to the radiomaster as you do. do you know why it doesn't work?
Thank you very much,
Thanks for watching!
excellent .... Thanks. Just discovering TX16s that i will use for my airplanes i wish to see how i could use it for simulators. You gave me a great helpful answer with this video... I will go over & discover your other videos . OpenTX/EdgeTX/Radiomaster T16 are a big mountain of infos to discover so let's go step by step ... If you say and demonstrate the T16 can be used with simu fine for me, i will take time to set up my gear ( being 69 it may take some time 🙂- Thanks ...
Thanks bro!!!!!!!
No problem
Hello @Steve, thanks for this amazing guide it's still super useful here in 2023.
I have followed it up to Liftoff and there's something odd. Whenever I take off with right stick in dead center I go back or to the side just by raising the throttle. I tried adding 0.1 deadpan on calibration but it's still there. Any ideas?
I had trouble finding the USB driver, it was nowhere to be seen. So I checked on another UA-cam channel and suggested I "rollback" and that worked, I have everything working fine, except none of the switches work, in "Liftoff" or under control panel. Just the Axis, which is fine, except it would be nice!
Ive got everything done just short of plugging in my radio and I still need to name it as a file in my radio but I'm hoping it's been updated were I don't have to do all the remote set up but if I do your video made it possible I appreciate this
thanks thats kool job you have im getting a
thanks
Yes PLEASE! Do a detailed video of the TX16S and Liftoff. I’m flying liftoff now with an old Spektrum DX6, but I’d like to use my TX16 and make switches etc as close as possible to the real thing.
Also, my grandson and I both fly Liftoff… can I have both the Spektrum DX6 AND my TX16 set up on Liftoff so that he can use the Spektrum and I can use my TX16?
Спасибо! Очень понятно и хорошо объяснил)
Так рада, что могу вам помочь.
I have an RC transmitter that I use for virtual drone software that would typically connect via USB as a controller. With Windows 10 it has continually showed up as "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) in Device Manager when I plug it into the computer. It also shows in control Panel under Devices & Printers in the Unspecified section instead of as a controller. I am under the impression that it should show under libsub-win32 devices in the device manager but I don't see libsub-win32 anywhere in my device manager. I've tried to roll back the driver (that's grayed out) and also tried to update the driver via the automatic search within device manager to no avail. The transmitter is a Radiomaster tx16s connected via USB if that helps. Any advice or path forward to getting this to work would be greatly appreciated. Not sure if there is a way to add the libsub-win32 to device manager if it's not there or some other way to address this issue.
YEEEs Thanks a lot!!!
Yep
question I did game controller settings like you described in the video. my sticks move like they supposed to, but my slider s don't move or react like shown. any ideas?
with all do respect sir , You are a fucking bad ass for putting together all this info! thank you man!
I wonder if you can help was at RC club Sunday and were having problem with the throttle trim using mode 2 when in lowest idle throttle trim only works up none down but if i put stick in centre position i can trim up and down.
The default inputs are very different from what you have in the video. Why do they not need to be adjusted? For example Weight = 100%, Expo = 0%. Can you advise as i am trying to set this up. Thx!
If you have newer version TX16S with built in ExpressLRS module, you can use ExpressLRS Bluetooth joystick function to make it work as wireless Gamecontroller for Windows 11.
if you have older version TX16S, then you can buy external ExpressLRS module to do the same.
Most simlutors will function with bluetooth gamecontroller.
Hi Steve, I have no lib32 in my device manager. Can you advise what I am missing? Thanks
you saved my sanity
I'm glad!
Hey Steve. My game seems to start in Acro mode. How do I get angle or horizon.

After I plugged in my RadioMaster, Windows 10 recognized it and I could go straight to Liftoff. However, I changed all settings back to default, so no 50% settings. Just plug and play. In liftoff calibration is needed, though.
Thanks for commenting. Improvements have been made to eliminate the need for those adjustments.
hi, good vid thanks, but where do i downlaod the drivers from ? thanks
Hi Steve, love your tutorials, they have helped this noob very much. Hey when you say we can use the DEFAULT INPUTS now, I know the simulator works with them but do also mean the default radio inputs, like where we put in the 50% ratios in the input screen? Because I’m still using those 50% inputs, just wondering. Thanks. Hey one more question if you don’t mind. What would cause my TX16s to only allow me to use 8 channels instead of the full 16. Thanks again.
What I meant was you no longer have to change all that stuff on the radio to make it work in Liftoff.
@@TahoeSteve Thanks I appreciate it Steve.👍🤟
hello everyone! I'm having as bit of a problem even after watching this video.
it feels like when I'm flying the controller has two very different sensitivities in lift off. yaw right is pretty smooth but yaw left is vicious. this goes the same for roll. throttle up is very unresponsive then suddenly I'm taking off to the stars. anyone know what could be wrong? I don't think i need to set the driver up as it recognized my controller as "RM tx16s joystick" I followed the directions in this video.
iwish you explained the weight and stuff you did to the gimbals why and what it mean and why its not neccesary in drones^^ BUT THX! by the way can i bind my drone mods to the 6 Airplain buttons somehow?
That's the way it was when I learned how to do it years ago. It is better now, you don't need to do that.
I'm repeatedly calibrating and fine-tuning in lift off each time I calibrate the throttle keeps moving the yaw or pitch with it and then when pitch it only pitches up and goes up all of the sudden when I push it all the way up, anyone knows why?
Any ideas on how to get this to work on Mac?
what are the default settings?
Is it that hard to set up goggles as well
Is there any reason to change the input settings on the controller? Mine are at 100% and it works great.. would it be loosing precision?
The way I did it in the video is the way I learned a couple years ago on my Taranis. I did some testing both on the TX16s and the Taranis (setting it up like you said), and they both work fine on both radios. I fly better using the old method because I am so used to it, but thank you for calling this to my attention. I would be interested in getting your feedback on trying it the other way and see which one you like better.
RATS ! I was hoping I could snatch some info from this to help connect my futaba through betaF . Windows dont recognize as a game controller ( on a witch hunt
Why did you set all inputs at 50%? Please explain for me. Thanks ❤️
It's the way it used to have to be done. It has come to my attention that you no longer need to do it that way and it will work fine.
great video, but the quad starts to lift at around 60% throttle... how can we fix this?
Try it with stock settings to inputs/mixes. they have made improvements so you don't have to do all those changes anymore.
I bought a second hand today. Looking for a simulation method. Thank you for your method.
👍
If I connect TX16S to my HP laptop with USB C port, it doesn't work.
however, If I use the same USB C cable but with C to A adapter and connect it to the laptop's USB A port, it works.
I'm not sure what the problem is. It's not the cable, or the TX16S or the Laptop's problem.
Happens to another laptop with both USB C and USB A ports. only works if it's connected to USB A.
Does this tutorial work the same if I am using a Mac book pro?
never used a mac.
8:27 at this point, I couldn't find the ''RadioMas TX16S joystick', the only one that I can see is the 'RadioMas TX16S Mass Storage', could you pls help, what can I do? thanks
@@patrickscott8364 Hello, I did fix this by doing what you did say and following the steps on this video, thank you anyway! :)
I have a little paradox here between setting up the TX16s and/or the Zorro to the Liftoff Simulator.
Okay to start out both do link up no problem to Liftoff. However; anyone assign functions on both controllers like, flight modes, arm/disarm for example and get them to work in Liftoff as well? The RadioMaster Zorro totally works in this area. After spending seriously over 8 to 10 hours watching UA-cam video's and trying all sorts of different ideas I can assign the functions on my RadioMaster TX16s, but non of them work on the Liftoff simulator whatsoever!
Has anyone else run into this issue and solved it? Any help here in a resolution would be very grateful.
Did you (or anyone else) solve this? It's where I'm at too. Only some of the triggers are assignable in Liftoff but few of them seem to work. Having no luck with arm/disarm.
@@DIProgan Yes! Liftoff has its own area where you see programmable keys. Open that and there will be 2 options keyboard shortcuts and controller shortcuts. 😜
Do you know if there's a way to turn off the radio transmission when using it in a sim?
Disable the internal/external RF in simulator model?
@@oyvind0075 I will look for that option. Thanks
My zorro was working. Today it sees is inside of game but nothing works. Liftoff. But in velocidrone its still working. WTF!
Why do we need to change the input weights and stuff?
I learned how to do it the old way where it was more complicated. You do not need to do this any more.
Hey I know this is unrelated to this video. Just saw an older video of yours and would like some feedback and thought to comment on a newer video. So I just took the heads off my 5.3 tahoe replacing leaky headgasket. And the driver side looks like it got a bit of water. And was hoping to get some suggestions on cleaning. Im thinking a good cleaning should be all i need to get a good few more miles from it. Gonna check my block for warp. Id like to pull my pistons and possibly get em machined but not sure about it. I bought this tahoe from a friend for $500. Looking to get it running as cheap but as reliable as possible as my other vehicle is an 89 jeep xj. Thanks!
obviously, a machinist is the way to go but since you said cheap, this is what i did with my parts: ua-cam.com/video/WyiVWxtG2DY/v-deo.html
@@TahoeSteve haha awesome! Thank you very much for the feedback. I was trying to look through your videos but didn't see this video!!
how do i set up my tx16s with my macbook pro
Never used a Mac, hopefully someone else will chime in.
Will it be the same for DRL sim ?
I have not used DRL, hopefully someone will chime in.
It will be the same with TX16se right?
I have not tested it personally, but I don't see why not.
Do you know if it will work on Chromebook?
dont see why not.
So how do you do this for MAC’s??
I don't
Hi, does the T16s have M4 or M3 sticks ?
M4
@@xarisrig7561 Thanks
Mine doesn't even show up as a listed usb device? How do I even get it to show up as an unspecified device?
deep breath. start over. go slow. don't skip steps
@@TahoeSteve I ended up having to download the libusb drivers manually since I built my PC and it didn't come with any preinstalled drivers
They must have changed something in the radio or I just got lucky. I didn't have to do anything in this video. I just pugged in the USB C cord went to lift of and in the control part it showed the radio picture as it usually does and it said RM TX16S. I clicked it and then calibrated it and it worked perfectly? Also I dont know if anyone knows but the 8 in 1, 20 in 1 sims you can get off eBay work perfect with the radio also by just plugging it into the DSC port on the top of the radio. I noticed the the (mono TS) cord that comes with those type sims dont work. I had to use a (stereo TRS) cord and it works fine.
Yes, much easier now then when I learned how to do it.
@@TahoeSteve I dont know if you know or not but you can use the little cheap eBay 4 in 1 , 20 in 1 sims with the radio also. Most those sims come with a mono TR cable. It wont work. I had to use a TSR stereo cable and you just plug in the DSC port and it works like a charm. If it doesnt find the radio you have to go into the trainer settings and make sure its set to Slave/Jack.. I updated my firmware and it changed the setting on me and I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't work any longer and finally figured it out as it needs to be set Slave/Jack. Hope this might help someone.
Ok, you're a compiler, an aggregator. Someone misplaced (me? Maybe....) my dongle lol. Ok let's go! Please. haha, I need to fly. Thanks. ;) Pretty convincing commercial, but I wasn't shopping. Just wanna fly, but subbing now. Ty.
(
Oh c'mon, "It's all gonna be here, and it's all coming up next .... political ad haha)
No I'm not gonna set my aileron expo to 20% on the radio. You do that in the sim betaflight(!!!!) What am I even watching?? Lol
I guess you are as confused by my video as as I am by your comment
Why are you setting weight, offset and curve?
It's the OLD way to do it. Used to be the only way. People have called to my attention that this is not necessary anymore. I have tried both and the old way definitely has a different feel that I have gotten used to.
@@TahoeSteve thanks for clarification
@@TahoeSteve Will it make the simulator feel different from flying real quads?
video starts at 1:55
Any idea for macbook?
Get a PC. KIDDING! Actually I do not know a thing about Macs, however, I thought macs were famous for not having to add additional drivers
@@TahoeSteve=) thank u, i solved the issue my data cable was not working i guess
@@ckhayeet so you were able to connect RadioMaster tx16s to Mac, don't you? I'm currently thinking about buying one, but I'm worrying if it will work with Liftoff.
@@viktormaksymenko2506 yes yes no worries works fine, no need do anything just plug in
@@ckhayeet Awesome, thanks!
You could have skipped all the Steam stuff and included all relevant stuff to get this set up properly with button assignments...
Please elaborate???
Nah, it was cool because for many liftoff will be the first time they deal with steam and are clueless. You can always just forward that part if it doesn't pertain to you. Take less than two seconds.
