    ALSO! A current owner of this radio here. Please make sure you don't hit and hold "save/cancel" while on the Display page. It will move and cycle everything. Including your throttle. I've had it catch me almost twice now. Just be mindful of it and it's a great radio. Use it in my Avanti S V2 currently

    i like the way these guys preach safety. I know people get tired of hearing about it and you don't read or hear about prop accidents, perhaps everyone is just lucky or they do indeed practice safe habits around the world. But I do not mind at all that they preach it, it's really awesome that they do.

    Stank you so much for the info, I used to build mine with balsa and monocote about 44 years ago while n the Air Force. My radio was a futaba and fortunatly wheel and dealing got it in a swap and to fix it and a servo was about $50. I had a piper cub and a P-51 mustang with 6' wing span. The gas motors were tricky as they would snap bank and pop your finger, wow it hurt. Being retired cuts budget way down and had to get rid of all of it years ago as children were more important but it's ok. Love the hobby., I have a Horizon Hobby Sport Cub S with safe technology which blows me away. I love the as I call it the oh crap button. Thanks again guys!

    I have the FS-I6X transmitter and it's great. It's even capable of receiving rssi from the better flysky receivers (ia6b,x6b), I use it to find lost models (on rare occasion). Great range too.

    Working on setting mine up. One suggestion (yes, I bench tested with the prop on and I’m glad you mentioned taking the prop off) when my radio boots and plane is plugged in the transmitter displays a message to move all switches to the up position. I am reversing my throttle idle switch so that up is off.
    Great video! I learned at least two things I did wrong.

    Thanks for the awesome tutorial on the transmitter setup. After a 26 year hiatus from the hobby I'm looking to start flying RC planes again. My old Futaba radios are no longer relevant in today's high tech world so I'm considering this radio to get going again. Could you please recommend reliable servos that would stand up to a .45 glow engine powered aircraft? Will this receiver also take the vibration produced from a glow engine? Thank you!

    I need help! I have a Flysky I6X transmitter to control my tracked inspection bot. But when I first switch the transmitter on, it beeps and gives me this message: "!!WARNING!! Place all switches in their up position and lower the throttle" Sometimes I just bump my left toggle switch, channel 3, and it stops the warning and gives me full control. But all too often, it doesn't matter how many switches and toggles I move around, it just keeps beeping and will not give me control. What is it doing and how do I get it to stop? I have a simple tank chassis with a light and camera gimble on it. It's not like I need a safety switch to start with. Can you help me?

    • @theoztreecrasher2647
      @theoztreecrasher2647 2 роки тому

      For "individual servo connections" use PWM. Battery can supply 6v to ANY of the PWM output +/- pins - they are each connected as a bus rail.

    • @theoztreecrasher2647
      @theoztreecrasher2647 3 роки тому

      There are plenty of mini Flysky receivers. Just Google it. You can't use Spectrum (EFlite stuff) with this without adding an outboard module to the back of the FS-i6X.

  • @BillyBobBestie
    @BillyBobBestie 7 років тому

    Hi guys, very helpful video, I still have one question. My ESC/motor is bidirectional, so if I want no throttle, I have to position the left stick exactly in the center. Is there a way to make the motor spin only one way, or a way to adjust it in the settings so that I have the full range of control over only one direction? I don't want my plane's prop spinning backwards during flight :)

    Hi
    I have a FlySky FS-i6X transmitter and iA6B receiver with a and HobbyEagle A3 Super 3 stabilizer. From what I can tell the everything seems to be working fine except being able to change flight modes on the 3 position switch C on the transmitter. Does anyone have experience with this setup. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    • @theoztreecrasher2647
      @theoztreecrasher2647 2 роки тому

      Have you assigned switch C to channel 5 to switch the modes? Check your display on the FS-i6.

  • @rayfene1

    • @theoztreecrasher2647

      It can be done but not quickly. Check UA-cam for video of process.

  • @supercreations1593
    @supercreations1593 4 роки тому +1

    There is a mode called idle mode in assign switches menu . You should use that for kill switch not the throttle hold one .

    • @theoztreecrasher2647
      @theoztreecrasher2647 2 роки тому

      Yep, a MUCH better idea. See "Andrew Newton" on UA-cam for how to set it up.

  • @bobbunting1628

    • @graysonhobby
      @graysonhobby  5 років тому +1

      You will need to setup each model individual. There is not a 'master' kill switch. But just copy your model in the menu and you will not have to reprogram anything.
