Planet R6M receiver
Steerage:
I'm having trouble sourcing additional Planet R6M receivers at a reasonable price. I see from other posts that I'm not alone
Has anyone found anything to replace them?
I found a web page reference to a FS-R6B FlySky 2.4Ghz 6CH receiver for RC FS-CT6B TH9x M3S0. Would these be suitable?
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks
rsm:
There are 5 Planet R6M receiver listed on Ebay at the moment.
Steerage:
Thanks Roger,
I have seen them but I think they are second hand and likely to go for serious money. However I have my eye on them!
I was hoping someone may know of a compatible replacement on the market.
SailorGreg:
I had a search for Planet-compatible receivers a little while ago and found nothing suitable. A couple of my receivers have given up the ghost recently (OK, they did get a little damp %) ) and I could see a time when I ran out of receivers for my models. In the end I decided to take out some insurance and bought one of these https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-tgy-i6-afhds-transmitter-and-6ch-receiver-mode-2.html?___store=en_us. The receivers are only about £6 each and I guessed this kit is likely to be current for a few years yet. And the Turnigy Tx is less than we used to pay for a Planet Tx and less than 2 Planet receivers at current prices.
Good luck with your search though, and if you find a solution there's lots of folk here who would like to know!

Thanks Greg,
That appears great value for money - almost too good to be true but probably worth the risk. Probably less risk than second hand Planet receivers from Ebay! Hmm, food for thought - Thanks.
