i know im rather late to the party but you have once again saved another piece of equipment from anger. i don't know what i would do without your videos.
@@Painless360 I didn't have the proper Zip file in the SD Card and once I found the right file I moved it over to my SD Card and the Error disappeared.
Hey big guy thvery last step where had to unzip the file is where I messed up. As soon as I unzipped the file and closed out the page I installed tbe sd card into the qx7 and it worked perfectly.. Thanks for the quality video... Now I have to learn how to stop the radio from announcing " Welcome to Open tx" before it goes to the model page. Do you happen to have video on how to delete or stop the radio from saying this announcement upon powering up the radio?
Dear sir. Just quick question plz. so after i update the firmware my radio I tried to write the firmware to radio but I keep getting Directory is missing the firmware. And elso even I bootloader the radio i still get sdcard warning. Do you have any idea please?
I can’t say I fully understand, but I’m hoping that when I get my transmitter, I will follow along step by step, video by video, & everything will fall into place. Thanks for your help. I’m taking your advice, getting a TX7 & Bix3. One off topic question, the Bix3 landing gear is it 4mm? I plan on ordering bigger wheels with it. I understand that big wheels will probably affect flight performance, but I’m willing to trade that for improvement when landing on less than perfect surfaces.
Ok if you can please answer one more question for me and i'll leave you alone.I have the proper zip file for the sd error code in the sd card file but when i place the card in the qx7 it still shows the SD error code? the other files like sound etc all work in this sd card?
You need to check the contents of the opentx.sd.card file on your SD card. So if you're still getting the error then you're copying the new files to the wrong place on the SD card or you are downloading and copying the wrong version.. Best of luck!
BTW, Lee, an off topic question here... Is it possible to use TBS smart audio and/or Tramp with iNav? I'm choosing components for a future wing build. 😊
I cannot seem to be able to get rid of the sd card error, as well as no sounds on the taranis qx7 , and I downloaded the correct version (ver 2.2 v0018), but still no luck, any ideas?
Can we hookup sd card to desktop and load file...or does it haveto be through open tx? I would prefer to do it through my desgtop with my sd card reader.
I have a jumper t12 on version 2.2.2 of open tx. I really don’t want to upgrade the version and I can’t find that radios specific sd contents on their site. Can I use a different radio download or will that mess things up?
Hey there you lost me when you said you were going to put a link up after you arrived at index 2.2 /release/ sdcard so i cant go any further.Can you place a link in my contents so i can update my sdcard version?
@@Painless360 I have the proper zip drive version 2.3v0025 in the sd card but i still see the error when i start my qx7.Do you know what i may be doing wrong?
The only thing that is checked on the SD card that creates the error is the contents of the opentx.sd.card file. So if you're still getting the error then you're copying the new files to the wrong place on the SD card or you are downloading and copying the wrong version.. Best of luck!
Lee, Has Taranis changed the model numbers? when I went into my "Radio Profile" after down loading ".2.2.2 , the profile was not listed, I have seen x9d, x9d+. Thinking that the it is called the 9d+ I down loaded this, now I cannot load anything and get all sorts of messages. Can I get back to my original 2.1.9?.
@@Painless360 Thank for the reply. I have put in the X9D radio in profile. OK'ed that then down loaded 2.2.2 put in the firmware, wrote it to radio and disconnected,on the radio it said "write firmware" done this and now have a blank screen and a nice buzzing sound. I think I have now "Bricked the Radio". Can not see a segment on the list on how to get it back to normal. Every time I turn on nothing happens just the buzzing. Will now have to do things through the SD card. With my problems it looks like you will be making new video's for the next few years. Thanks. Ian
It says to add the opentx.sdcard.version "at the root of the file". I presume that means top of the list above all the folders? Trouble is it won't let me do that, it always ends up somewhere in the middle or at the bottom and I can't seem to do anything about it. Would it work if I put it in the CROSSFIRE folder which is at the top?
If you follow the process I show in the video, where I right click the file and select copy et cetera, then it should work fine. Just make sure that you’re not hovering your mouse button over the top of one of the actual directories on the SD card and it’s hovering over anywhere else in that window when you right click and select paste..
Thanks for your very quick reply, I'm using a Macbook so I only have the drag and drop option and cannot replicate your process. No matter what I do I can't get the opentx.sdcard.version to stay at the top, the other folders always want to leapfrog it. It's driving me nuts!@@Painless360
@@Painless360 didn't work for me. i tried clicking with single click or double click and still asks if i want to search the store for a app to open it. so i looked at another video solution from youtube and that said to right click on a empty space in the cards contents page and make a new txt file called opentx.sdcard.version . and in that add the version number the radeo is asking for.. it too did not work.. im stuck with the warning it seems for now . my radio is qx7 accst running version 2.3.0.. and the card version its asking for is or expecting is 2.3V0020 and there isnt one i can even download . it seems to go from 18 to 21 in old downloads ...

My computer would not let me download opentx companion for sd card warning Is there a different way

It sounds like you've missed a step or done something wrong. What troubleshooting have you already tried?
The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination
Amazing!
This is the only way that 2.3 will allow the warning to be eliminated.

Could you just use the same content, and just change that version number to rid the warning?
That would stop the warning from appearing...

Great tip Lee, thank you!
I have the correct sd stuff on the card and it says it's the wrong thing

Ahhh, but how do you edit the SD card version name on Mac?
No idea, I'm a PC guy.. Best of luck!
I took my sd card out which also stop the annoying message. Still works as normal qx7
That'll work too but you lose the ability to flash receivers, have sound alerts and use LUA scripts on the radio too (among other things) ;)

Thanks, man!
Thank you sir!
Wouldn't it be better just to update the radio's fw, to match the correct sdcard contents.
Not if you get his error after updating to the latest version ;) happy flying!
That was perfect. I stuck a blank card in my qx7s and it gave me the same message...i wondered why....now i know.
+1👍 thanks buddy, i forget how each and every time i update.
This would be good information if it was not rushed through. I couldn't keep up and so it did not help me. Sorry.

I have watched your video numerous times and have gone through the steps play -pause -check card etc.I have opened the file in notepad and it looks correct to me but still I get the warning.
Watch that the filename is perfect for that critical file in the root directory - windows can add an extra suffix if you're not careful..
