I'm glad Basil is there to help Will to keep things simple and to explain clearly. Please remember that some of us are very green. Thanks for the Vid.
Thanks for your thorough demos on Vbat, and frequency calibration. Have not see that in other videos! - Jim
You guys are awesome!Not only do you sell great products but you also help people setup gear and more.That why I buy from you.Im not new to rc but I'm always learning something new.You go way beyond other company's to help all customers and newbie.8 buy from you and send others to your site.Keep up the great work and thank you for all you do to help us.
Bought my TX16S, battery, and receivers from these fine folks. Great service and quick shipping.
Your videos are so helpful. Just ordered some from Grayson Hobby because of your terrific videos. Thanks so much!
great guys!!.clear and understandable video.I am in the middle of switching everything over to radiomaster.Thank you for the video and please keep making them!..
Guys:
The dynamic between you two is humerous, fun, & helps assure us that you check each other , live that everything is clear & compete. Yippie!
Keep up the good work. - Jim
I just set this up last night, battery alarm and all! Didn't know about the frequency tuning, so thanks for that! Glad to have all this info in one place. Thanks guys!
Also! You mentioned the users manual that comes with it. I found that the user manual on Radiomaster's website actually has an additional page in it that shows how to connect the vbat line. Some people might find that helpful (though you do completely cover it in this vid!).

You guys are the greatest!! Thanks for your videos!! A huge fan here from the Philippines!!
awesome info guys, thanks.
This is a great video. Thx
I think I'm gonna like joining you guys thanks 👍
Just subscribed. Fixed wing airplanes my favorite 👍thanks for the valuable content. 👍👍Regards
Nice video guys! Thanks for your help ;)
Bought from u guys and Did this for a rc Tank
Watched the whole video and I am sold!!!! Do you have a list of receivers this works with or is it only this receiver? Thanks again for this video!
Thank you for the videos!
First thing I did when I received my TX16S MAX yesterday, was try to bind it to my E-Flite UMX Turbo Timber. Had no idea what I was doing, but actually found the protocol fairly quickly. And wow was that easy, and the telemetry worked without doing anything, albeit I did have to add the sensor to a widget. Still need to find how to set a SAFE. switch. LOL.
Anything in the wind for planes that use more than 4S ? And when the heck is there going to be a 16 CH RX ?
Super video and very clear thanks. Q. If you were adding say the ZOHD stabiliser which normally has Channel 5 designated for the 3 position switch for Stab, Man and RTH, would you be piggy backing the same JR plug to top positive into the receiver or can you use another of the 8 channels for VBAT?
Really nice comprehensive video on the RxBT/ Vbat setup.. etc.. thanks... Say I have been looking for a way to get the Last known location / GPS coordinates discovered in this telemetry too.. I’m using the SBUS out of a Zohd Kopilot or Eachine Razor’s Safe FC and it’s not in the R161 /R168 telemetry data.. is there a GPS module I can put in-line with this SBUS link to add it into my radios Discovered sensor list?
Will this tx, work with radiolink recievers also? The VBAT puts me in mind of the way their recievers battery telemetry works.
Thanks! 👍
👏👏👏...👍
Will the ratio allow you to adjust for the use of 6 and 8 s lipos?
can you bind 2 of the d168 units together like the x8r to get 16 channels?
I was looking for a receiver to use my TX16S Radio with an electric RC car. This should work correct ? will have just a steering servo and the motor ESC. The voltage telemetry is great since the ESC I will be using is calibrated for Nimh voltages and not Lipo voltages, so to have the radio sound the alarm when I reach the Lipo's critical voltage will be the way to go.
It might have been easier to follow if only one of you did the talking and following a script. My old Hitec Aurora 9 system gives motor battery in-flight voltage telemetry by using a two wire connection to the receiver connected to the motor battery. Optima receivers run on up to 27 volts.
So with a tx16s MAX I can use the Radiomaster r168 reciever and get FULL access to all of the frsky smart port based sensors right? The vario, etc?
Is it possible to setup 2 battery voltage monitors and engine temperature? This is for a a gasser airplane.
By using Eachine TX02 pro can i hear audio from Eachine EV800?
I plan on Buying the TX16S either the regular Hall gimbals or the Max. You're telling me this all has a Gyro on the receiver with RT Voltage Reading?
What else would you recommend, by the way?
what should the battery voltage range be set on the radiomaster tx16s mkII
hi and thank you for a great video, in fact I am using this device and I have the T16S as well. 2 models selected and first one works perfectly , the second one with this R168 device is making me a bit crazy on CHannel 3 (second plane has a different receiver) what I face is actually on the Port 3 channel mounted with the throttle (glow) and I cant use the trim down from center, only upper position works, all other servos works ok (same servos). i wonder if you could give me a hand here. thanks in advance
definately want to now how to hook up gyro with this reciever.
Very good video. I connected an R168 with the cable to measure battery voltage with telemetry, but I noticed that the Rx gets warm during use, is it normal? Regards
For voice he means Choppergirl's SoundPack :)
No need to clutter up your screen with a bunch of OSD junk obstructing your beautiful view up there, I'll tell you when your battery gets low and it's time to bring it in! Georgia radio, put a Georgia Girl on it (not a British robot) :)
Is the R series reciever the same protocol as Frsky ?
👍👍👍
Hi Guys great Video👌 Would this work on a Radiomaster R86 V2 Receiver
Setting up the battery voltage widget makes sense, but what is the purpose of the little battery symbol shown already in top right of the screen as this seems to be there regardless
Hey guys, i got a wizzard x220s and i cant get it to acro mode. Can i do it with out bataflight
Awesome video! That was exactly what I was looking to have on my plane. I want to be able to check the battery level. Can you please recomend a receiver with a stabilizer? I'm flying Horizon Hobby planes and I'm used to the SAFE and AS3X they use. I bought a FMS 800mm Corsair and I need a receiver with stabilization and telemetry for the battery level. I have a Radiomaster TX16S. Thank you so much!
Try FrSky S6R (6Ch) or S8R (8Ch) receivers with built in stabilisation together with the FrSky Lipo voltage sensor MLVSS, which is going to give you Flight Battery Voltage telemetry for up to 6 cell battery and you can select to display on the telemetry screen of TX16S either the total voltage of the battery or the voltage of the lowest cell (most practical and less confusing when you fly interchangeably models with 2S, 3S, 4S etc).
Hello, I bought like 6 R168s and 2 are bad. I calibrated them like you said and my plae lost signal mid-air and just crashed. Can I send them for replacement?
Is there a way to get VBAT for 6S lipos? (22.2v)
Love your video BUT, I can not for the life of me find the "RF Freq Fine Tune" where you show it enabling me to range up and down to see a change in the RSSI signal. I would LOVE to be able to tune this receiver(I'm getting a RF Critical warning) I'm going to fly an E-Flite Timber, uses the Spektrum DSM bind. Can you please help? Thanks for your videos! Makes this radio set up almost fun. 😎
This old brain is trying to get my quad "Inductrux" into the 16s without any luck. I found a printout of the quad Horizon Hobby BLH8516 FPV pro manual. Every time a set it up something does not work. Each time is something else.... How do you see it being done? Thanks for any help. Continued success.I have it bound, armed, 1 flight mode. It still way far from where it should when properly setup in the radio. It flys, some control, no hover or change in flight modes. Looking forward to hearing from you and your instruction.
Yes like to see a gyro setup video and what kind to use pleeease thanks guys!!
The FrSky S8R is fantastic. Check out RC Video Review or Painless 360 on UA-cam for very good walkthroughs on setting them up
Yep like to see a video on that
What is the difference between us and eu version of the 168 radiomaster?
how do you set it up to read the RPM on a gas engine that has a plug for RPM with the electronic ignition??
I see u connect positive wire to connect at?. Not clear.
At signal channel num?
The radiomaster R168 is it only for drone or can be use for fix wing also ?
I use R161 and R168 receivers on several different fixed wing gliders all the time .. sure you can do that
Great video. Question, can you just tap off the balance port for vbat? Maybe just tap into one cell (second wire in the plug) and set the warning at 3.5v? Would that work instead of tapping off the battery plug?
That could work, but you need to make sure you are not getting the input of an individual cell. And that would be the more obscure way to make the connection.
@@graysonhobby I’ll try it that way and also tapping off the red wire or full pack voltage and see what I get. Should get my Rx order from y’all in a couple days. Thanks for the great how to vids!
So having watched your informative and entertaining video, I've tried this with my TX16S and two different R168 receivers with no luck at all... The receivers each enter "bind" mode (both leds steady), but no sign of any ficker to suggest any bind attempt. Powering off and on again then results in a slow flashing red led at the receiver... Any suggestions please?
Charles (in the UK)
What mode did you select in TX16S? FrSky X D16? Try also FrSky X LBT (EU) , FrSky X2 D16 and FrSky X2 LBT(EU). It should bind to one of them...
Why my rxbt doesent change...it reads 12,38 v what is correct, but if i suck battery it wont change? If i unplug its correct again
I'm Brand new to Radio Master TX16S and would Really appreciate if you'd go SLOOOW and describe every Key Press/Stroke for us Newbees. THX Trying to fly a Graupner GR-12LReceiver with my new Radio Master TX16S. THX Bro.
When Ir tryed to BIND the GR-12L I had to set the fine tune to 40 and when trying to tune it going off 40 either way produced a "Lost Telemetry" Sound but it came right back. Whet's wrong?
Isn't it better and easier to use balance lipo voltage alarm/checker?? If doesn't weight much and you can stick it inside the fuselage of an aircraft on a velcro or tape. Also it gives you an alarm if you loose your plane and they to find it as it goes off with loud alarm once battery is low on power.
Have you tried a LiFe receiver battery with this receiver? I was sold on this until I saw the specs state 6V max.
RTFM Power supply range: 4.5-8.4V
I'm confused dang it! I have the RD TX16s, I'm receiving telemetry warnings(even critical!), and I'm trying to fine tune the Spektrum receiver to my TX; for the life of me I can not find the feature? Did they move it or something? Please help :-)
Go my answer from RD website. The option is not used with the DSM Spectrum protocol.
@ 16:45 - I thought I was the only one who did this!?!?
Do you do the frequency tuning only with the RadioMaster R168 ? because I have the Tx16s and bound it to multiple jets that have DSMX receivers in them and some have Frsky receivers in them and never heard or done this step before. Never lost signal in my jets.
Dsmx not required, but definitely the FrSky... its equivalent to a radio dial on 99.7 but broadcasting is on 100.5.
@@graysonhobby Oh wow! Okay then guess I need to fine tune the frequency for the frsky Rx then Thanks for this info and the video it really help a lot as I'm not new to this hobby but I am new somewhat to the Tx16s and its capabilities so I'm always learning something (Dx8 G2 guy before this one) I want to get the best coverage possible for my jets so that I can fly them and bring them back safely
Question the receiver from radio master work with the jumper t16
Absolutely it will work with a Jumper
FYI, The multi-module website does not say you need to rebid after you frequency fine tune.
Yes it does - Here is the exact text ---> If you change the frequency tuning value it is best to re-bind the receiver(s).

are you guys joining in with RDQ's Lawsuit?
Hey gys
I lost one antenna of this reciever after a Bad crash.which can i use for replacement ?
They are not quick in answering are they?
i bett when you order stuff they are fast to take your cash..
Can you tell how can I get to know the range of any video transmitter in units like km or meters . REPLY BCOZ ONCE AGAIN I HAVE WRITTEN WITH HOPE🙄. .
I see it’s been a month since you hoped for a reply, so I’ll take a stab at it.. it’s not possible to rate how far a Vtx will transmit directly since there are so many other factors determining this ( like your goggles Rx antennas postyion and gain, the Vtx tx antenna type and it’s gain, the RF noise around , and the phase of the moon.. but typically a 25mW Vtx can send a decent fly able signal out within a 300 foot radius good enough for a lot of LOS flying and 200 mW is good out to about a km. Hope it helps..
Got a Buddy that NEVER EVER runs a Batt Below 3.7 / cell. His batts have Hundreds of flights and are mostly 4 to 5 years old. 3, 4, & ^ cell batts. He always charges at the field incase he can't fly they don't stay charged from an charge done the night before.
Why showing telemetry on tx16s without showing how to wiring for battery mah?
Could someone help me? I hold the bind button and plug the battery into the esc, the servo cable is in correctly, but the LEDs don’t stay on to bind. Why won’t the receiver bind?
Watch Xjet on youtube, way better channel.
@@Romin.777 why spam comments like this? That channel doesn’t answer my question. So unhelpful.
@@SchuylerL Because a years worth of curfew makes me cranky..
@@Romin.777 can you help me bind an r168 receiver with a tx16s?
@@SchuylerL I wish i could, i really do. I am stuck in the 27mhz and 40mhz era.
This summer i want to join a flying club with a field and upgrade all my old RX TX combo's.
haven't flown fixed wings in 7 years and a lot has changed. Well servos are still the same but recievers and transmitters did.
I think you have to scroll through the menu with that button on the right to select your protocol first.
futaba - Frsky- graupner etc etc
than select your reciever type.
Make sure the reciever is connected with a lipo ofcourse.
What i have seen and heard so far is that modern Transmitters are multi protocol (Open TX) abd a lot of them recognise the reciever by itself.
That's all i know.
Hope you have found it usefull.
Good luck.
DAMN I hate that U-Tubby removed the PUBLISH DATE from older Vids. Now I have to check the date on the Comments to see if the Vid is still relevant.
11:28 12.14V-12.11=0.03V offset, no need to calibrate 😁
Did you guys actually test this Vbat hook up yourselves???? It doesn't work. It can't work! You are reading the receiver battery (RxBt) not the flight pack (Vbat). Yea you will get a reading. But it will not drop as the flight goes on. It's reading the 5 volts going into the receiver.
Complicated too much mucking about
