Yup, me and him use a fly sky, but I also have a dx6e that I use from time to time.

I genuinely thought no one used that radio anymore.

I really don't have a dog in this fight but what the hell... Most transmitters will be more than adequate as long as you have enough channels to grow. I started with a 6 channel radio because you only NEEDED 4 channels (Aileron, Elevator, Throttle & Rudder) and if you were really advanced, you used channel 5 for Landing Gear.

Then I found out about mixing and separate elevators and multiple motors.

Get all the channels you can afford in your radio and ensure that the radio/receiver combination can grow with you.

My original radio could handle 10 channels and 10 channel receivers were easy to get.

Then I needed a couple of more but didn't want to toss out all the earlier receivers. So I got a multi-protocol radio.

So stick with one that supports the most channels & receivers with large numbers of channels.

My 2 cents.

Sometimes it's about having the right kind of channels too. A 6 position switch for flight modes can be handy. Sliders and/or knobs for mid-flight rate adjustments other than high/med/low, etc.... 2 and 3 position switches and buttons. Momentary button/switch....

Pretty sure my radio has all of that.....I think ill look into it...

I had that until this year then I decided to upgrade..But I now I wish I just went for the TX16 as I want to do long range and stuff as well as have telemetry.

Then why are you looking into getting a different one?

Current radio is absolute garbage.....and doesn't have a lot of features. I was talking about the radio im gonna get not the one I have.

A radio that has all that can't be too bad......

Let me clear it up.....the radio I have is a cheap Chinese radio I got from Temu I think.......and no my radio doesn't have most of the stuff @LitterBug talked about so yeah I need a upgrade and also the range isn't good at all.

It looked to me like you said that your radio had all that....

Oooh that makes sense😂

 

[Merv]

True and im going for ELRS cause im gonna be soon building a long range fpv wing...

I agree with the others, I you are going to FPV, I highly recommend a FC & GPS. Return to home is a great feature to have when everything else fails. Where I live, it's an ocean of corn, very easy to get lost flying FPV & not know which way home is.
