RC India

i am planning to buy one basic level TR & TX. Can any one let me know which one is good ??

Avionic RCB6i (2.4Ghz 6ch transmitter with receiver) or

Fly Sky 6 channel 2.4 GHz Transmitter and Receiver (mode 2)

Fly sky. If you can, stretch for a turnigy/flysky 9x.

hi .. i think turnigy won't fit into my budget.. (3k)

you can opt for flysky 6 channel .....it comes for around 3500 with some extra RXs

so you mean to say Flysky is better than avionic !! then i will go for it. it comes around 2900/-. thank you both.

Yess FS is much better than avionics

Avionic ... You won't get support later on ..... I have been waiting for 7x receiver for the past 6 months ... Every time I call I get assurances ..we will have that in stock in two to 3 days ... The Tx has been there as a piece of junk without the he Rx ... I hope RCB takes a note of this

Flysky 9ch anytime, wait for a month or 2, save some more money and buy Flysky 9ch, you will never regret and lots of options to upgrade it later as you advance in this hobby.

Actually both are really good in terms of Quality, and spare receiver is not available in any Indian website for both.(Please let me know if anyone has a 6ch RX for FS T6.

>Flysky display is good, RCB 6I display Sucks,
>Flysky needs 8 batteries, AA to Lipo conversion isnt much feasible, RCB is light with just 4 batteries and good space and support for a LIPO
>Havent seen any range problems with both, but programming in field is a pain in RCB 6i, and much easier and intuitive in FS T6,
>RX quality for FS T6 sucks, its too brittle for nitro and breaks with just 6 rubberbands, and binding isnt as easy as its mentioned in website,
>RX for RCB 6i is simple and good quality and smaller and good for both nitros and electrics, and strong enough to withstand any crash, binding is super   simple,
>Personally i didnt like the looks of RCB6i, but my brother loves his radio.
>Im a fan of FS T6 even though its big and bulky. it also lacks a Timer which i never thought it will be that important but RCB 6i has it.
>If you are really tight on budget and can learn easily for programming a radio go for RCB 6i for around 2500 including shipping.
>If you can spare around 2900+Free shipping and you can spare some 800+ rupees on NIMH batteries and charger wait until the FS T6 is back in stock on Quadkopters.com

Let me know if you need any more info on both radios. i fly them both regularly.

op is talking about fs ct6b so rcb6i wins anyday

Here Comes Nitesh with good Experience with both radios. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I am also using both Flysky FS T6 and FS TH9X... Both very good radios... the FS T6 comes with a back lit screen. Both these have never dissatisfied me yet. Very good radio's for beginners.

@V2eagle Sir the OP meant the fs ct6b and not the fst6 so rcb6i is better than the fs one because of its onscreen programing and light weight.
I may see the radios if i come to your field this sunday.

Sure...

Just display and light weight are no use here comes the valued benefit of CT6B

CT6B  can fly heli but RCb6I can't

Flysky has vast protocol so you can BNF WL 911,912,913 but RCB6i can't one and only of its kind

Flysky can bind with Turnigy,HobbyKing receiver too but RCB6i can't even bind with RCb7X .

for extra receiver need not wait for months are depend on one LHS.

@rcrcnitesh & v2 eagle .. where you guys are flying ?? let me know the place, i can come down too tomorrow..

I don't fly only V2 Eagle sir fly at medavakkam https://maps.google.co.in/?ll=12.876823,80.169876&spn=0.00775,0.011362&t=h&z=17 (https://maps.google.co.in/?ll=12.876823,80.169876&spn=0.00775,0.011362&t=h&z=17)

This is something im waiting for a long time, cant find any spare RX for my FS T6, i hope FS T6 should also bind with Turnigy RX.

Gotcha, but haven't dealt with them before. wish Quadkopters could stock them as they sell the complete setup already.
RX still not in bad condition to replace. lets hope for best....:)

Hey I recently brought a FlySky 6 ch Rx from www.banggood.com (http://). They shipped it for free but I did pay USD 1+ for a registered shipping.  It came to me registered in about 40 days.  You may ask for faster shipping by paying for it.  The total cost was some USD 12 or USD 13.
Best wishes

fsct 6b is a nice radio if you have it solely dedicated for a single purpose. Everytime you need to switch between models you need to connect it to a computer. I would not risk flying a heli with it. rcb6i is a better choice.

thanks all for your guidance.. but unfortunately both aeroworks.in and rcbazaar ran out of stock of flysky 6ch..

Get rcb6i from pune
Or ct6b from moorthy sir.

Yes get the rcb61 it is good one :)

Is there any range issue in flysky FS t6?

If you can, get the flysky fs i6x- Best budget transmitter in my opinion.

Please suggest any genuine online websites where I can find FS i6x

You can check on rchyper.com or quadkopters.com
Get the i6X version(with X) not the i6. Both are pretty much similar by the way ,also same price. The i6x is a bit better.

If there is choice bw avionic RCBi6 and FS i6x .
Which one would u suggest. as I'm new to this field I have no idea.

Get the fs i6x. Much better. It is tried and tested by many people on internet.

Tnx a lot for replying to my doubts.

It is out of stock on quadkopters.com
Get it from rchyper.com both the websites have same price. And get the i6x version, with the X. Good luck.

One more thing. The  fs i6 is only 6 channel while the fs i6x is 10 channel. So, the i6x is better.

Yes i6X is better not just because of 10 channels but it also has got better processor on it which will aid for future development of the transmitter. I strongly recommend you to buy i6X if you can buy it.
Even i6 has custom firmwares for extending its channels but I suggest to go with i6X.

Tnq 😊..
I ordered i6x from rchyper.com

Can i6X be used for Quads and planes and helis?

The reason asking as the receiver looks diff its like a small chip board with 2 antennas!!!

I am too  bit confused before buying one...

i6x can be purchased with different receivers.
IA6b Receiver - Use it for Airplane. It is because the UBEC/SBEC in the ESC, connected to the receiver provides power to the receiver and servos and also throttle signal.

X6b Receiver for Quad.

x6bus is a wonderful receiver, for using on planes, it needs to be studied a bit, required cables are supplied for pwm connectivity, only thing to note is that the channel1 cable is given connected in the set which may be connected with the esc , therefore channel3 which is throttle needs to be connected to esc and swapped with the channel 1.  with some care only 5 cables are needed to provide control 3 servos , if servos are placed nearby in fuselage below the wing , and push rods are run to the control surfaces.

Go for fs-i6 ,its good.one time investment ,if u need basic tx..

Can I use 35c 4200mAh lipo(2s) for 10A brushed ESC(costs 500 rs in Amazon) for rc car.
Pl reply

Only you can use if your DC Motor current <8A. (to be in safe limit).

The dc motor which I have was using 6v 600mAh Nicd batteries before.
I don't know it's peak current value

If the motor and esc can handle the voltage of the battery you are using, then you can use a battery of any capacity of that voltage. Now, talking about current draw, if the nicd battery you were using was working fine then this battery can handle that very easily.
The constant current that a battery can handle is given by,

Ah (not mah) x constant c rating of the battery.

Example- a 2200mah lipo battery with constant c rating of 25 C can handle current:
2.2 x 25 =55 amps.

Then can I use that 35 c 4200MAh battery..

Yes, you can safely pull 55 amps from that battery. But since your esc is only 10 amps , if your motor pulls more than 10 amps it may burn your esc.

35*4.2 will be almost 147 amps right..
Can my 10 amp ESC handle that.
My motor was working Fyn with 6v 600mah Nicd .

If your motor was fine with the nicd then it will surely be fine with this lipo.
An esc can handle any battery as long as it can handle it's voltage, the capacity and c rating of the battery has nothing to do with it.

This information will help me a lot thank you

I have used the FS-6T for a while.... it was ok initially but then there were a host of issues with the range... because of the Tx or the Rx I do not know.  Today i use it solely as my Tx for the simulator.  I have a Lipo in it and it works file for my sim needs.  I migrated to Hitec Optic 6 sport and now to Hitec Aurora 9.  Both these two sets have excellent reliability.... never had to think about the ranges....
