Best Radio I've ever had!!!!
This radio is the best radio I've ever used. I've been in the hobby for about four years and after testing and expending money in different radios I finally found the radio I always wanted and needed. I have no idea why there's so much hate from people who haven't even touched the radio. The first thing I did when I got my radio was setting up my Exceed Mad Torque, another heavily underrated crawler. When I went to the track the first thing I love got was a hateful stare from this guy using a Futaba 4PXR, I have that radio btw. After five minutes he couldn't wait any longer and asked me why I've spent money on that Flysky. I already setup the Mad Torque with the crawler mode. I was looking at him struggling with his radio trying to make the crab walk. I just had to select it from the crawler mode. It took me les than 30 seconds. The look on his face was priceless not even a single word. You can select four different settings on the crawler mode. You will see on your radio screen exactly what you will get from that setting. The only flaw I've found is that you will not get that full premium look and feel you get from Futaba but don't get me wrong, you still get a premium set of hardware. I just wish it was more strong less plastic sort of speaking. The radio it's extremely responsive on pair with my Futaba I found it to be more responsive on Savox servos than Futaba and others less responsive but still so responsive you won't notice any lag if you race. This radio is actually one that you can use as a racer been an amateur or a professional racer. Like I said before I don't know why all the hate. One thing that I love is that everything setting you select the radio will show you visually exactly what you will get with that setting it even has a section within the setting where you will find a description and explanation of that setting in particular. I've never seen a radio where you can get that feature specially so well integrated. I will continue updating this review but like I said before I think I've found my last radio. If you want to get the best radio and I am not to talking for the money I am saying this is the best radio you can get. If they change the hardware to add a more premium feel and look I think this radio will be perfect. Come on Flysky add a light that show us when the radio is charged. Sell a better battery and change the screen for one more responsive. Those are the things that take away the spark from this radio. Other than that is just perfect I couldn't be any happier.This review will continue.....

Great radio with many options for budget price.
Been using this radio for 2 months now with no problems. I have this set up to 5 different models right now including a pro boat blackjack 29. I really like that I can use this with my old and cheap flysky/hobbywing rx's that are like 6 bucks a piece. In fact today just playing around I bound it to my wife's redcat volcano with no problem on its factory rx. You just have to switch the mode to regular afhds to find to the cheaper rx. Using the radio is easy too, if you have a question about a screen you are on just tap the question mark in the corner and it will tell you all about it. So far only things I don't care for are the wheel that you can angle. It won't lock down tight enough. Also the stylus cap pulled out. Other than those two minor things it is great and packed with tons of features.

Incredible value, incredible product!
Been using this for a couple years now in my bashers, crawlers and boats. No issues at all. No runaway's, no dropped connections etc. Features are great, especially if you are doing any kind of custom build....like in my case with the crawlers. Dig, 2 speed transmissions, servo mixing for 4ws and lots of other items ready for set up.If there was anything I could change, it would be that stupid button on the grip right around where your palm and thumb wrap around. I had to disable it as I kept on triggering it. It's almost impossible not to. The screen is also not that sensitive to finger inputs. Use the stylus to save yourself a lot of aggravation.Other than that, loving this thing. ESPECIALLY for the price. EVEN MORE especially when you factor in they give you all the telemetry modules as well!PS. Beware of knock off receivers. I purchased 2 in a rush not realizing they were knock offs. They work as basic receiver functions go, but they do no work with the telemetry outputs. Even the simple receiver voltage doesn't report back.

WOW talk about a versatile light weight remote
I had to make a decisions about what remote to get I wanted one that would support a lot of different styles of RC car. This remote is loaded and extremely easy to use and understand. The menus are self-explanatory no instructions needed just dive right in. I had it out of the box charged and was able to Download and update the remote to the newest firmware then bind the receiver to the remote and was tweaking the remote to my T-Maxx 3.3 within 45 minutes ish. It is quick and to my eyes seemed to be instant there was 0 delay. The remotes is comfortable to hold. The steering shell is nice and grip foam soft and plush easy to turn clean and snaps back to center. All and all I give it a 9 out of 10 I give only a 9 do to the screen is seemingly mid to low resolution and is plastic and could scratch easy so use a nice cloth that will lift dust and dirt away.

... am impressed with this remote and its range I like this better than my futaba and that's not easy ...
Wow I am impressed with this remote and its range I like this better than my futaba and that's not easy to do this has way more functions more buttons that I can program however I want if you are thinking about trying this remote you will love it and the receivers are only 20 and sensors vary from 8 to 15 dollars my futaba sensors vary from 70 to 100 and they both work the same it's really a amazing product watch out futaba you got competition thank you fly sky for a nice beautiful transmitter at a great price paid 141.00 for mine

Good for all my rc cars
I put together an rc buggy in which I needed my own electronics. I can't be happier with my choice to purchase this fly sky remote and receiver. I have excellent control with my rc and it's very nice playing around with all the settings in the menu. And it's also a very nice quality that it connects to different cars and saves settings. Great product.

Outstanding
Outstanding product and huge huge bang for your buck! My only hobby is custom building RCs from 1/18 up to 1/5 scale. I use this transmitter for all of my RCs, currently 10 of them. It binds super easily and is compatible with the inexpensive flysky recievers such as the gr3E and the FS-IA4b plus many others. Just be sure to adjust the transmitter frequency for your particular application. Range is further than I can see the rc. Operation is extremely smooth too.
