radio

Hi everyone. Ages ago I bought a orangeRX openlrs 1W module second hand. I had no idea what I was doing back then, so It got thrown into my box of parts for ages. Since then I've got good at fpv and wanting to give long range a shot. Pulled it out and tested it and it worked fine. I had no idea...

I've recently receive my new radio and transmitter module to use with my Nano QX. I have the OrangeRX DSMX/DSM2/Devo 2.4GHz Selectable Transmitter Module (JR/Turnigy Compatible) installed in the Turnigy 9XR Pro and I'm having issues. The problem isn't in the binding as the light on the QX goes...

Hi, this is a quick overview and review of the Flysky FS-T6 transmitter which i recently bought for my 250 class mini racing quad copter. It was around $80 and i was not that impressed with it actually, for a start it doesn't have an interchangeable module like the turnigy 9x does for around...

I just visited HobbyKing and there is a new firmware update for this radio http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__58455__Turnigy_TGY_i10_10ch_2_4GHz_Digital_Proportional_RC_System_with_Telemetry_Mode_2_.html I plugged in my radio and the PC was supposed to update drivers etc but its not...

Oddly enough I never had an intention to own a Taranis it just sort of happened. If you listen to the recent podcast you'll hear the back store. I'd gone for a flight with the Sukhoi and accidentally lifted off in Stagility mode/ high rates. "Really wish my radio would talk to me..." Plus as...

Hey guys, I have been in the RC community for several years now and I just cannot understand why people fly Mode 1. To me Mode 2 just seems so much more intuitive and simply superior in terms of control, accuracy and learning curve. Lets face it Elevator and Ailerons in a plane/quad are...

FS: Spektrum Dx6 Practicly New!! $SOLD SOLD!!

Well, I'm new to the hobby. My son and I are building the FT22 and have it looking good. Our radio arrived today, and I am a little ticked at HobbyKing right about now. I want to post my story here so other newbies will learn from my folly. So my five year old say some youtube videos and said...

Hi ppl, I just have 1 question... I just built my first ever FT Versa Wing (1st plane EVER) and I need to know if it will work with my radio/transmitter. I have the Hobbyking (MODE 2) that was like $28.00... WILL IT WORK??? PLEASE SAY YES or I may need to find ANOTHER new hobby!!

Hey guys, I am extremely new to the hobby, and looking to build my first rc plane next month! I am currently looking at building the FT Versa wing, and making it the "pusher style". I am really looking for help out rigging this plane with a powerful, yet manageable motor and power system. I...

Hello, this is my first post to the forum and i am about to begin my first FT speed build kit. I just about have all of my materials together to start the build of my FT Racer. I am wondering if there were any recommendations or suggestions on a receiver for this plane? I'm definitely still a...

I got my package in today from helibatics.com, can't wait to install. One other thing I will need to do is to update my Taranis to ver 1.2. I hear that it's still in testing still so... more to come in the future. Update: 6-5-14 So I installed the Mod and installed v1.2 firmware. Haptic...

I have an old 27mhz radio, from Heng Long. They make tanks. I bought it for an exuberant price from my brother. I want to upgrade it to 2.4ghz system, with ease. All I have done is cleaned the internals, and remove the spring that resets the throttle to 50%. Can anyone give any advice or tips...

So I am looking at spending about $100 to $150 this summer on a radio and receiver combo. I want to have at least 6 channels to work with so I can do bomb drops and stuff. Something that lets me have presets for different planes I own would be nice. Im open to anything a little over or under...

I'm looking for a transmitter that I can keep for a long time to come. I see the Taranis and it looks good, but I could use an opinion. I will be flying quads, hexes, helis, etc. for now but I plan on also flying planes later. I would like it to be able to work with Spektrum and AnyLink, and I...

Spektrum Dx9 Unboxing and Review Hey guys, Just sharing my unboxing and review of the spektrum dx9 with you guys, I think it is a great radio, Full of features and i definately recommend it to you. Check out the video to watch my review :) Please subscribe to my channel also, It helps me ALOT...

In starting out, you're probably primarily looking for value for money, I know I am! What can you get that gives you the most features for the lowest cost. Well I've done a lot, and I mean a LOT of research into my new hobby (girlfriend says 'fad'), and it was how I found Flitetest.com. Awesome...

I am trying to figure out what radio system to use if I am to get into all the FT scratch build airplanes. I received the FT Flyer, Nutball, and Delta Speed Build Kits for Christmas, along with a Spektrum rx so I think I will be staying with the Spektrum and OrangeRx brands. I already have a...

I think you guys should sell Flite Test radio straps with your logo and name on them in your store! I know that if you did, I would buy one! :D

I know this may not be the right place for it but I'm building a fully autonomous robot that will traverse through any building and map out a blueprint of what's in there. (Original idea was three quad copters, but seemed a little dangerous with all those props flying around people :) ) I'm...
