Hi...and looking for compatable receiver

[Pracman]

Have seen old threads and posts about compatable receivers for the Turnigy TGY 9x transmitter. There don't seem to be any of the original turnigy receivers available, so looking for the Flysky compatable ones.
I'm new to all this, but trying to fly powered foamie and a glider, so looking for second receiver.
Confused by all the FS options advertised, but gather some are for cars and boats but aircraft ones need more range. Don't need more than 4 channels on the glider.
Have seen FS 6RB and iA6B and iA6, but can anyone tell me which ones will work with the old Tunnigy.

iA6B is the go!

Don't go by brand name, go by protocol. The Turnigy 9x and actually pretty much all turnigy gear uses AFHDS. Any reciever from any brand name supporting AFHDS will work fine with your transmitter though will have wildly different capabilities concerning things like refresh rate and range.

 

[FDS]

Check which protocol it has, newer ones are AFHDS 2A, which doesn’t work with AFHDS.

 

[bracesport]

the iA6 and iA6B are 2a and compatible with the TGY 9x - the iA6 and iA6B are branded both TGY and FS

 

[Pracman]

iA6B is the go!

Found out the hard way that ia6b is NOT compatable... must be AFHDS 2A .. which doesn't work with the older protocol...so back to the drawing board.

You are quite right. Found out the hard way... will not bind. Am in Aust... stocks seem to have dwindled due to freight slowdown.

Hi @Pracman - the iA6 and the iA6b are both 2A - If I am correct you have the TG9x - which should work with 2A?

 

[Pracman]

The transmitter is TGY 9X. I've tried binding using all the tips and youtube vids but but it won't bind to the ia6b.
Will look for receiver with just the AFHDS protocol.

 

[leaded50]

its saidTGY9X uses the AFHDS 2A protocol, iA6 is AFHDS 2A , iA6B is also AFHDS 2A . The R6B is not ( just AFHDS)

 

[bracesport]

@Pracman - how old is your TGY9x - if it is older maybe it is on an older protocol - can you update the firmware?

The transmitter module can be replaced ... whats in yours..?

And... the model have changed. Now it depends on what you have as bracesport asked

Yes, it's an older one with a RF9X-V2 module. It has been fine with my foamie, but I wanted to also fly a glider...hence question about compatable receivers. I'm a complete novice to RC, so have no idea about changing transmitter modules and other mods I've seen on YouTube. Would just be happy to find a suitable receiver.

 

[bracesport]

here are the Flysky receivers (TGY is just branded) - list

Any Rx using the original AFDHS protocol work with your Tr.
None of newer protocols will work with your Tx. AFDHS 2, 3, etc.

I have had great results using this multi protocol module with my 9x transmitter. I don’t worry about compatibility any more.

Thnx for that... am I right in assuming it's the module for $12.59 for Frsky and Flysky etc ?....cos about 12 items crop up on that page. Are there any vids about installation ?

 

[daxian]

irangex 4 or irangex4+ is the one you will need ...with it you can use virtually any reciever on the market ...
and yes there are loads of vids out there ...google multi protocol module !!! i have had one for 3 years, well worth the money ...

So both are available... is the 4+ worth the extra $10 over the 4 ? Keen to order, even knowing stuff out of China is taking forever.

I have the one with the dial on the back, which is used to select the protocol. The other one, without the dial is for something like OpenTX, where you select the protocol through the software.
