Hello!
Took a decision to leave the dark ages and get myself a programmable 2,4 GHz radio. Totally sold when I saw this one on the net, with itīs touch screen and many, many switches and knobs. On further investigation it seems to be Three more or less similar radios under different brands; Carson ultimate touch, Flysky FS-i10 and Turnigy TGY-i10. The Turnigy beeing the cheepest one, but you get some extra things such as an I-Bus and some telemetry Equipment in the box. The Carson radio is supplied with an extra set of spring for the sticks so that you can have all sticks centered, something I would have appreciated. I managed to make my own spring set as I wanted all sticks to be centered.
I bought a 6ch Flysky rx locally here in Sweden and it worked great so I guess all Three brands are compatible. Only thing was that the binding didīnt go according to instructions on the Flysky rx, it looked as if it didīnt bind but it does. With the 10ch Turnigy rx the tx clearly show that the bind is succesful.
So far I have come to really like the programming and how to use this radio. It has 10ch and you can dedicate any of the channels to any of the sticks, switches and knobs and its really easy and informative. You can store 20 models and every mode, trim, mix AND reciever bind is stored to that model memory. You just choose your model of choice in the list and your clear to sail. On the bad side so far what Iīve learned through the net; poor quality on the Micro usb-port for charging so can come loose. Followed advise on RC-Groups and epoxied this on the inside. Further, one of the 3-way switches only have Three positions in the firmware. Apparently the other two brands have a 2-way switch here and someone forgot to adjust the firmware on the Turnigy radio.
Well, a Little report from a totally newbie on "computer radios"!
All the best!
