ISSUE: Companion 2.10 fails when importing Wingy, Wingy 4S template

Date

13 Oct 2024

Applies to

Wingy, Wingy4S templates

Symptoms

After transferring a Wingy4S template to the transmitter using Companion, the template doesn't work as expected (see #5602)

Cause

With these templates, Companion 2.10 may fail to convert controls correctly from native X9D layout to target layout. Symptoms include only partial operation of the template, due to missing mixer sources.

If using a different template, or an X9D or X9D+ transmitter, you can ignore this issue. (Recent templates sidestep the issue.)

Solution

EdgeTX Companion 2.9 seems to do a more reliable conversion.

  1. Download and install Companion 2.9
  2. Start Companion 2.9 and open a fresh template using a profile for the target transmitter.
  3. Save as a .ETX file.

The saved file will be your working template, and should open in Companion 2.10 without issue.
