Flysky thoughts
Okay that is how that works! Kewl! So here is my question guys. I have been looking at the FLYSKY i 6x as a possible cheap new radio (I got bit by the new radio bug LOL) because it is cheap like me lol and seems to be well recommended but I am a glow flier. Is this thing up to the task of controlling a .40 to .60 size model and is the range sufficient for sport flying of this type aircraft. Also what about vibration? Can I eliminate enough vibration to make it usable? Any thoughts?

Out of over 1000 reviews Banggood has a 4.9 rating on the Flysky i6X. I would go through them to see if there is any discussion on range. I'm concerned about that small antenna.

My Feedback: (3)
I've had mine for 8 years, and I'm one of those 1,000 happy customers. I have a FlySky FS-iA6 receiver in my 60 size Kaos without any glitches, range issues, or antenna concerns. The receiver battery telemetry is handy to see on the display.
Feels cheaply made, but so does the new Futaba 6 channel that sells for twice the price. Took a little time to mix a throttle cut for my glow engine, but still a good radio. Battery also lasts a lot longer than I get out of my other radios.

Okay guys here I am shaking my head at how happy this transmitter has made me and I haven't even had it into the air yet. All the reviews were cheap little raioi but good performance. To that I can only say what more do you want? Now I am looking ahead to the next one and I have to decide which one id my next choice. At the moment the choice seems to be the Flysky ts-8 or the Radiomaster TX 12. Especially after i find out that my Flysky receivers will work with the Radiomaster. I need to say up front money is indeed an issue. So all you guys who want to jump in with the upticket units like the tX16 and etc. sorry but not in the running. so what are your thoughts?
