Flysky FS-GT5 6CH AFHDS RC Transmitter w/ FS-BS6 Receiver for RC Car Boat

I knew before I even drove my Arrma Notorious that the radio that it comes with is junk. The majority of all the new Arrma's that have come out have the Spektrum STX2 systems in them since Horizon took over. Well those radios have quite a few issues, and just feel like a $10 radio. But more important than the plastic feel they also have delay issues. Which in an RC that goes over 60MPH is just ridiculous. You need complete and total control with the absolute minimum of input delay.Anyway after some research I knew it was with this, or the Radiolink RC6GS. I went with the Flysky and am glad I did. I LOVE this radio. The feel, build, features, are all great. I bought an extra receiver as well to go into my Typhon 6s. So this will be my radio for all my cars from here out. At first I didnt like the feel of the steering wheel. It seemed too soft and easy to turn. But Ive gotten use to it, and now actually appreciate that ease. It makes it so easy to turn and make minor adjustments. The trigger feels great as well. Another feature that I didnt think Id care about is the SVC gyro system. It works great and can be tuned quite a bit as well. This is great for narrow streets on high speed runs. It keeps it straight as an arrow. The Flysky also has all the important features and adjustments you would need, and quite a few I know Ill never use.Overall I think this is one of the best radios in this price range. Highly recommended!Update: 1-25-20Just wanted to update this review to say Im still using this radio and still love it. Ive used it in all the Arrma's Ive had and it is currently in my Notorious 6s and my Outcast 4s. Love the feel, controls, and that its easy and cheap to install this in another RC just by buying another receiver for about $20.

I got this mainly to replace a broken Traxxas TQ transmitter because the price was really good ($70 during time of purchase). The exact replacement for the transmitter was for the same price, but this is 6 channel and includes the receiver (however, be warned that the "ABS" stands for "automatic brake system" and not "anti-lock brake system"). I was not expecting anything high quality from this price point, and when I received it, it absolutely blew my mind! The throttle and the steering felt so much more high quality, and so much easier to control than the Traxxas transmitter, glad I made the switch! When you hold it, it does not feel like a $70 cheapo. It feels like one that you can get for $120 or even $150. For durability, it's also very good. I have dropped it on the ground once, and it has never had any damage to it (no cracks in the screen or bad display, everything like new). Even right now, it's going strong, and it's by far the best Transmitter that I have ever gotten (if you have a Traxxas or any RTR transmitter make the switch if the opportunity presents itself!). Overall, I am very happy with my purchase, will definitely buy again!

This transmitter is excellent for the price and the features, controls, ergonomics, the range, and settings are all better than I expected. I got a GT3C to start with and I was disappointed because the range was so bad it was useless for a basher so wasn’t sure if it was a good idea to get another Flysky but this GT5 ended up having excellent range and I even tested it with a rangefinder and turns out it has such good range that I still had control past the point where I could barely even see the vehicle. Was still working flawlessly at 275yds and at that range I had to look through the magnified rangefinder to even see if the car was being responsive. The GT3C had a quarter of that range at 70yds when I tested it but I suspect I may have gotten a defective model because 70yds is just horrendous and I’d expect any transmitter and receiver to have much better range than that.

Best buy for price

I have two of these radio systems, one in a trx4 which is perfect for all the functions of this truck and one in a Scx10.3 kit. I do a couple spectrums with one of the receivers from spectrum needing replacement after 3 uses, and no water runs. Will be buying another soon for scx10 pro build and maybe one to replace dcx 5 in my cross rc rig.Absolutely recommend this product. Easy to set up also.
