Great review. Straigt forward and focused! The digital gimbal was a surprise to me. Your wish for head-tracking is probably ahead of our time. Keep it up
I've been wanting to get into ELRS since the new HDZero AIO dropped. While I'm still undecided, and can't afford it right now, this radio looks absolutely gorgeous. Also, glad to hear from ya.
This one looks tempting. Not sure if I would miss the color touchscreen of the TX16s I have now but think not having to install the module every time would fly because the transmitter doesn’t fit in the case with a module would make up for it.
Thanks. Strong review. Lots of (user-) information, no marketing blabla. This is the first GX12 review I watched and I have enough information to decide on this one 👍
With regards to the wireless trainer, there *is* an AUX port UART inside the radio on the mainboard, so you should be able to connect up a small receiver to that and use it for wireless trainer (as long as the receiver can output uninverted SBUS, which all ELRS receivers can).
No, you connect an RX to the UART and bind the trainee radio to that RX. Then it is just another trainer input to the trainer TX and you can use the EdgeTX trainer mode to use it
OLED is an interesting choice, I'd be worried about burn in over the long term with the generally static information it'll display. worries aside, it does look a lot better than my boxer's display. can the folding sticks be locked into position?
Its T for tension. under that cover theres 2 1.5mm screws one increases the clamp for the throttle stick tension. the other adds a ratchet to the throttle. this is separate to the overall stick tension which you can adjust via other screws behind the rubber grips
Good to see a new video from you Andy. I'm a mode 1 flier too btw! The 5000mah Radiomaster battery in my TX16S looks like it should fit once the 18650 cage is removed?
ELRS is not the open source version of anything. It's designed from the ground up to be reliable and have arbitrary telemetry, by people who have radio as a passion, not a paycheck. ELRS in no way compares to the FRsky attempt to use a bad protocol to lock in a market.
@@AndyRCchannel yeah i was going to mention, the grips on the back of the nv14, i dont use a lanyard and i sit to fly, so the grips are essential, i even thought of adding them to my original radio, ... anyway i put cnc gimbals in the nv14 and its performing well enough.

Andy - good to see you making videos again :)
Thanks Wayne
Glad you are back my friend!! The way you make your reviews are unique!!
Thanks I try my best 😁
Always a pleasant surprise to see an AndyRC video in my subs.
Thank you :)
It's great to see you back, Andy! 😃
Thanks a bunch for the review!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks for sticking with me
@AndyRCchannel Oh, don't worry! 😊
Great review. Straigt forward and focused! The digital gimbal was a surprise to me. Your wish for head-tracking is probably ahead of our time. Keep it up
Yes I will keep asking till they do it haha. Thanks for watching
@AndyRCchannel which transmitters do support it wirelessly?
@@saturn_fpv the 2019 x9d has a built in Bluetooth trainer. I think the horus, xlite, qx7 also does.
I've missed these videos from you, Andy! Nice and quick review, thanks! I personally will stay with the Boxer Crush, which is perfect for my needs.
Yes I prefer the boxer also. Thanks 😊
As always, it was an excellent review. It's great to see a video from ya.
Thank you 😊
Guess who's back? Slim Shaady!
Glad to see your content again
I wish I was slim haha. Thanks
Long time no see Andy 😊🙏🏻🍀
So nice to see you still making videos. I have not seen any in a while. I hope your health is well.
I'm still struggling to get sorted but still want the end goal to be making frequent videos again. Thanks
The man is back!!!!
Hope your keeping well fella, I'm still rocking all your OG signature moves💯
Haha yes thanks for sticking with me. Good to hear
@@AndyRCchannel Been a sub 9 years sine the H107d days
@@MrLootshootI was thinking that the other day. Crazy. I should buy another
@@AndyRCchannel still got mine in a box somewhere lol
@@MrLootshoot I think I tore mine up and put the parts on a custom frame and then it got broken 😔
This is the fastest and to the point review I've seen on this radio 👏
Thanks Andy 😀
Thanks for noticing. I put a lot of effort in to try and make it to the point as possible
Thanks Andy, great review, lovely to get one from yourself again
Thanks for watching 😊
I've been wanting to get into ELRS since the new HDZero AIO dropped. While I'm still undecided, and can't afford it right now, this radio looks absolutely gorgeous. Also, glad to hear from ya.
Oh the new AIO does seem very interesting, I wish the goggles would come down in price at some point
Welcome back 🙂
I'm still happy with my TX 16, but maybe there will be a GX 16 in the TX form factor. Some of the features are interesting.
I was thinking the same!
This one looks tempting. Not sure if I would miss the color touchscreen of the TX16s I have now but think not having to install the module every time would fly because the transmitter doesn’t fit in the case with a module would make up for it.
Yes that is really annoying. Just had to do it now as I'm going out haha
Thanks. Strong review. Lots of (user-) information, no marketing blabla.
This is the first GX12 review I watched and I have enough information to decide on this one 👍
Thank you I try to keep it to the main points. Thanks for watching
That looks soo nice honestly. I've gone to using my DJI controller 2 for everything though these days even though I have 3 other controllers.
I still use my DJI controller for my O2 based models
Thanks for this great review! Let's hope that CE is coming soon so we can use it legally within the EU :)
No need for ce. Just select the lbt version in the elrs Config
With regards to the wireless trainer, there *is* an AUX port UART inside the radio on the mainboard, so you should be able to connect up a small receiver to that and use it for wireless trainer (as long as the receiver can output uninverted SBUS, which all ELRS receivers can).
Would this not require two receivers in the model? Thx
No, you connect an RX to the UART and bind the trainee radio to that RX.
Then it is just another trainer input to the trainer TX and you can use the EdgeTX trainer mode to use it
@@malte9999 ah I see. I'm wanting to use wireless trainer as a head tracker input so that's not the reason I wish it had a Bluetooth one. Thx
Gotta say, they nailed it with the look of the tx in my opinion.
Excellent review Andy❗
I appreciate your work...👍🏻🍻👊🏻
Mode 1??? Love it ❤
Yes hehe :)
Mads did some measuring and they're the same throws as AG01 gimbals, and fairly larger than the zorro gimbals
I find them a shorter throw than the ag01 myself
Welcome back brother! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Appreciate it!!
Only drawback, the fancy color leds could be a "pain in the eyes" when flying the evening...
Good to see you back
Thanks for watching
Great info on the digital gimbals !
Thank 😊
Looks like a decent radio. Thanks for the thorough review.
I hope you’re back!
Thanks :)
what a great full featured radio, wish was less wide, but still okey
OLED is an interesting choice, I'd be worried about burn in over the long term with the generally static information it'll display. worries aside, it does look a lot better than my boxer's display.
can the folding sticks be locked into position?
They can't be locked but when folded they won't move. They tension themselves in
Andy what's the T cover on the back of the radio. Great video Andy.
Its T for tension. under that cover theres 2 1.5mm screws one increases the clamp for the throttle stick tension. the other adds a ratchet to the throttle. this is separate to the overall stick tension which you can adjust via other screws behind the rubber grips
Staying with Boxer for now. Thanks Andy
Me also thx
I don’t know what any of what you said means. I just like watching your hands.
Thanks for the review! Can someone tell me if the regular Elrs receiver HappyModel EP1 won't work with this remote?
It will work yes
Good to see a new video from you Andy. I'm a mode 1 flier too btw! The 5000mah Radiomaster battery in my TX16S looks like it should fit once the 18650 cage is removed?
I think radiomasters own 5000mah battery will fit. Mode 1 for the win
Andy's back 😊
wow nice. its good for long range flight 😮
Well, Where have you been??
I have some medical issues I'm trying to get addressed. Thanks for sticking with me
Good review, thank you. Good to see you back. Will not buy this radio, i see not enough reasons to upgrade my boxer.
I prefer the boxer form factor myself also
Andy! Long time no see❤
miss your videos bro
Thanks stu. Hope to get back to regular videos one day but iv lost most of my contacts. Good to see you back also
Hes Back 🎉
7 different videos from 7 different reviewers on my list
I should know everything about this Tx in a few seconds....LOL
Enjoy lol
@@AndyRCchannel Lol
ELRS even more confusing menu, LOL so true.
Yes I can see me easily choosing the wrong option
@@AndyRCchannel all of us will 😂
I want a bigger high res full color screen
ELRS is not the open source version of anything. It's designed from the ground up to be reliable and have arbitrary telemetry, by people who have radio as a passion, not a paycheck. ELRS in no way compares to the FRsky attempt to use a bad protocol to lock in a market.
I was referring to how when elrs first came out you would flash it to the frsky modules. But yes it's very much its own thing
interesting developement but not for me, i'm still using the nv14,
That was a very different radio back in the day. Still is!
@@AndyRCchannel yeah i was going to mention, the grips on the back of the nv14, i dont use a lanyard and i sit to fly, so the grips are essential, i even thought of adding them to my original radio, ... anyway i put cnc gimbals in the nv14 and its performing well enough.
@@TheMadmacs very cool 😎
Andyyyyyyyyyy!
i just bought a boxer and have to modify it for my big hands, this looks like it would be bether for me...
I like the boxer for the slightly bigger gimbals. Hopefully you will have to try a gx12 before you decide to purchase or not
I want it
its the ugliest thing ever made. >:/
