Had the wheeltop eds tx now for just over 2 months. Rode about 600 mile on it with no problem until yesterday when I started to get intermittent shifting and the derailleur wouldn't move . The shifter was sending the signal to move and I also used the app and that wouldn't move the derailleur. Reinstalled everything and re paired everything but that didn't make any difference. I have swapped the shifter batteries for new ones but haven't had a chance to ride yet to see if that makes a difference. Has anyone got any other ideas or things I can try. I'm out of ideas!!

I have heard that there is a fine tune function with the wheeltop EDS TX system. Something like holding buttons on both side for 3 seconds however I am not sure what that then does. Has anyone heard of this and knows how it works?

Once I had got it installed and working I was really impressed with it. It cost me £445 and as I had a titanium 10 speed rim brake bike I wanted to upgrade it was the only real option. I'm really impressed with it and the minor niggles you have with most systems. The performance  and cost makes up for any minor problems.

Many thanks yes that sorted it.

I also find the rear derailleur charger cover doesn't stay in place is there a secret way of getting it to work or should I just use a bit of electrical tape?

Many thanks for this. You are right that is exactly what happened. I couldn't find a post on here that explained this  still took 4 hours to get the rest of the gears working properly but just about to go out on a proper ride!

I also find the cover to the rear derailleur impossible to get it to stay in place. Is this the same for others?

many thanks for the reply.

Will have a look at those tomorrow when I can play with it again and will send Wheeltop a message as well.

I think reverting back to the original values has no effect on the derailleur as it is as the values all look normal.

I think it is to do with the starting position. It thinks cog 10 is cog 1.

Just got my Wheeltop cable brake groupset from Aliexpress. Easy to install on the bike. Went to initial install the rear derailleur.Llined the rear derailleur up with the small cog and set the limit screw then wanted to set the limit screw on the large rear cog and could only get the derailleur to move to cog 8 on a ten speed cassette. After a lot more fiddling and frustration the rear derailleur is stuck on the large cog at the back. On the app this is shown as gear 1. Somehow I have moved the starting gear as the large cog. Not sure how I did this. Is there a simple way to return the derailleur to its original setting (reset button) so that I can start all over again or is there a simple way of getting gear 1 back to the small cog on the rear cassette?

Also is there some easier set up instructions for the gearing?. The Wheeltop manual is pants and confusing!!

Any help greatly appreciate
