Another needle in the haystack found.

Learned that
★ I can get rid off my maritim RC with its sailing boat and the submarine cause these pics make the mode easy to identify
★ and how I can create a model icon ... and that even easierthan sprite graphics back in the C64 era
★ irfan is still alive that I had left in favor for faststone image viewer

Great tip - thanks a lot.

Hi Lee A couple of problems with my Taranis +. First when I try to create a model, I don't get any of the grafics, such as type of model, has it got an engine and all that. Also on setting model image I get "No bitmaps on SD card". They are there on the card but not picked up in the Taranis Can I reset all this in Open TX ?
