Need help getting AUX outputs to work Servos on Pixhawk FC

Hi all

I need some help getting servos connected to the AUX ports on my Pixhawk working

I am running AP3.3

I am using a 10 Channel receiver running in PPM

PPM out is connected to RCIN on Pixhawk

Servos are connected to AUX 1 & 2

Servo rail is powered by a BEC

In mission planner I have set RC_9 & RC_10 Function to 1 (Pass Through)

I have set channels 9 & 10 on my Transmitter to 2 switches.

And that is as far as I have got, I cannot get the two servos to respond.

I have probably missed something obvious, can anyone offer any help as to why the servos will not work.

Thanks for any help

Paul

The servo';s should be plugged into the main outputs not the aux outputs.
The Aux';s are handy for gimbals and camera triggers.

What I am trying to do is use the servo outputs to control a Gimbal and Retracts, which both need a standard servo control signal which if I have read the instructions correctly is why I have them connected to AUX 1 & 2.

thanks

Do the input channels show up movement in Mission Planner?

Paul-H

Mission planer only shows 8 channels, the servos are connected to channels 9 & 10
