FlySky / Turnigy FS-i6 programming. How to program flaps on separate channels, elevator compensation, rudder aileron mixing, throttle cut switch, dual rates and expo. I am calling the knobs "variometer" by mistake. Should have said "potentiometer"

Just wanted to add that I went through your video carefully last night and was able to successfully program the throttle safety switch, the the dual rate switch and the accompanying expos, what looked a little intimidating at first is turning into an interesting journey. Thank you, Andrew. I didn't buy the Taranis QX7 because of the programming involved at start up, I kinda wish I had I had gone for it now. But this Flysky FS-is6X is better than I am right now and I won't be afraid to upgrade when I have a good reason to do so down the road. Cheers and many happy days to you, sir.

I have just purchased a RIPMAX trainer with .42 Thunder Tiger Engine. I purchased this Transmitter and Receiver for £40. After watching your videos I set up the radio gear and fine-tuned the plane. I then took it for a flight, having never flown before. I enjoyed every minute and even managed to land it without damage. Thanks for your videos. They really helped.

@steelydanfan100 6 лет назад

Howdy, Andrew. Greetings from Texas. Job well done, sir. As a beginner, I went with your beginner recommend radio, the updated version FS-is6X, very affordable, after delivery I almost sent it back as I watched some of your subsequent videos on the Taranis Q7, but I am going to stick with my beginner guns here. Not a cost thing, just a "do I need to order all bell and whistles" thing as I revisit an old hobby from decades ago. I am presently flying the beginner 3 CH RTF "Sky Cruiser" pusher prop plane you reviewed earlier, I am happy to report that this plane ( in a cushy grass field) has survived multiple hard landings and a bona fide crash or two without a hiccup. Very good flyer/glider in calmer winds. Excellent range with the included radio. Impressive. I am awaiting delivery of the Dynam Hawksky V2 as the second plane and first with ailerons and paired to my FS-i6X / FS-iA6B combo. I am also building a Flite Test "Simple Cub" as I just love that design and historical scale appearance. I live close to several lakes, so I am thinking a "float plane" version here. Thank you, Andrew !

And ( A ) switch for normal and sport . That configuration just felt comfortable to me . My question is once it's set up does it stay set up ? And when I plug in the cable to both transmitters do I have to activate the trainer / student mode . Or does it recognize it automatically 🤔. And then when I unplug the cable does it automatically go back to normal mode ? Or do I have to turn the mode on and off every time I want to train one of the kids ? Thank you again for getting back to me . And for making the video, I had a lot of fun yesterday setting up a 3 of my planes . I have 12 planes more still in the attic . All of them with brushless motors and castle creation ESC's . I learned 2 days ago how to update the software on the ESC's . I couldn't remember how to program them with the transmitter so I bought the program card . And called the company and they helped me over the phone. They had not been update sense 2004 lol 😆. The boys are getting excited about flying . They are using the new simulator and learning all the terminology about the planes . They are so smart for 9 and 5 years old . Both A students in school. If I knew how much fun grandkids were , I would have had them first lol 😆 . I'm in Las Vegas Nevada. And not sure where you are or the time difference. It's 3:27 am as I write to you .

Andrew, I believe that the throttle hold is for the nitro flyers who would use that to set their idle speed. Great video on programming. I suspect it applies to almost every newer radio. My older Spectrum 7Ch is impossible to program even after watching videos and downloading the manual. Any good videos going in to depth on Expo and dual rates? Folks love to tell us what they are set at but not why. Thanks again for doing great, informative videos!

Thanks Tom, I'll add expo and rates to the video list. It's a good idea.

Thank you for the info.i watched several of your videos and I've learned alot I enjoy flying but I really enjoy building planes .I don't think one screw by itself will be enough so I think I'll try some balsa wood, along the front sides shaped to the fuselage and cut to reduce the drag kind of like a corner brace... watching your flight of this plane you made it look like it's pretty stable and I don't mind sharing info with others from what I've learned .but I tell everyone about you and your how to videos and you show step by step instructions.the amount of time and effort you put into the them is unbelievable... thank you so much Jeff b.

I had a lot of fun using that radio as a controller, via SmartPropPlus (SPP) with the free flight sim PicaSim. A DIN plug is wired to a 3.5mm audio jack (pin 1 of the DIn to the tip of the jack, and sleeve to sleeve to connect ground) plugged to line-in. The Flysky works in PPM (Walkera) mode within SPP transmitter settings. Run SPP before starting Picasim. In the Joystick settings map the sticks and you've got a cheap flight simulator.

@jeffbowers4895 6 лет назад

In reguards to useing a screw Do you think 1 screw would be enough or do you think I need to also make a support brace for added strength

@jeffbowers4895 6 лет назад

Andrew I was hoping that you would recommend how I attach the front of the rudder to the fuselage in a little more detail than just using a screw if you would please I would appreciate it

@AndrewNewton 6 лет назад

I have used a little plastic hinge, with one side glued into a slot in the rudder foam and the other side screwed to the fuselage with 2 little servo screws. No need for backing, it would be impossible to get it into place anyway.

@jeffbowers4895 4 года назад

Thanks for answering me to set the rudder how do I set it up to work on switch b. To keep it in a going in a slow circle I don't know how to do it

@amw4736 2 года назад

Andrew, excellent video this is just what I needed for my sky surfer. My question is will mixing in elevator with the ailerons make the sky surfer roll better? more linear without spinning down during the roll? or should I mix in rudder for better roll rate and performance? I would love to see what you come up with for the bixler or sky surfer to make them roll on 100 percent rolls with max throw the best they can. I have this flysky fs-i6 radio so I need to know what is the best setup for the plane. Thank you!

@AndrewNewton 2 года назад

Ailerons and elevator mix is a bad idea. Might work for one direction only. I connect flaps and ailerons together the Bixler 2 for increased roll rate.

@ashleymcgovern7687 6 лет назад

I was going to set up for flapperons but, I suppose I could use the elevons or Vtail options. Depends what Ch the servos are on. The mix will do the same thing. It's pretty much the same as my old Flysky T6, bar it uses less batteries & also supports afhds 2A. Still think holding 'cancel' is a bizarre way to save the menu settings & holding 'ok' seems to reset it. Think they always got that back to front tbh. Let's hope it lasts longer than my old FS T6. The screen crapped out after about 18 months. I got it working again, broken lines but readable, not worth the hassle when this was available, especially on sale half the price. FS GT3 is great, great screen & USB rechargeable lipo. That's what these 6 Ch + need. A least a charge port for the batteries. That's what I now use the back of the old T6 for.

great video Andrew. The Flysky i6 is exactly the same as the Turnigy i6. They are a great Tx for the money. I have just started use my second one.

Did you wear out your first one?

Hi Andrew very helpful video. I have a problem with safety fiture all switches have to be up including the throttle, why?

@AndrewNewton 4 года назад

Safety feature on most radios. But the throttle cut function is the wrong way around. Thats why I use the method in this video

@josefranco8973 4 года назад

I do exactly what you do to set up the safety feature, but when I turn the transmitter on it says: lower throttle and all switches up. But the throttle also have to up. It is driving me creacy. If I do not set it up to the top position the transmitter will not work

When you set up your landing flaps how did you prevent the servo travel trying to push them above the height of the wing? By changing the endpoints?

@AndrewNewton 6 лет назад

Shorten the push rods

I noticed that you have the alorons and rudder working together but when you make a right turn using the alorons the rudder also moves right which gives it downwards direction shouldn't the rudder be on a right turn be moving to the left to give it a upward direction or do I have it backwards

@AndrewNewton 4 года назад

You have it backwards

Hi Andrew, Thanks for your replie. I'm making a rc scale boat at the moment and I'm using the Lander 40amp ESC with reverse function. But the ESC can't run the motor in reverse for some reason. Someone told me that maybe the remote might not be set up for reverse function. Is there a way I can fix this? Regards, Turlough Kennedy.

@AndrewNewton 7 лет назад

Hello, looks like you have plug the reversing cable from the ESC into the receiver and setup a switch in the radio programming. Have you done that?

@jeffbowers4895 4 года назад

After I launch it. Thinking it's at full power. As I'm trying to gain altitude. It seems to take a role. To the left and nose dive into the ground. Because it has no power when I put Full Throttle I get full power for in the beginning 10 seconds 15 seconds, and then it's dropped down to like maybe 1/4 power. Not knowing that. Every time I try to go up it would roll and come straight down into the ground.

FlySky i6x transmitter All three receivers I have are the same. But only one produces that second bar tell me the battery life. At the battery in the airplane as well as the battery life in the transmitter. Aside from the numbers on the screen Which all three receivers showed those?

Hi Andrew,just bought this TX,.. a question,,do you have to set-up the kill switch on all models or do you set it up ONCE and the TX remembers it all the time,, ?.. thanks for a great tutorial ,,,

@AndrewNewton 5 лет назад

Each model unfortunately.

@stephenmanley4097 4 года назад

I like your in depth tutorials on this transmitter. I got one for my RC cars & trucks. Still finding my round it, have to say it's very good for the price. My firmware version is 2.0. is that the latest update do you know?

@AndrewNewton 4 года назад

Only PC based updates for firmware unfortunately so I have not kept up.

@turloughkennedy6579 7 лет назад

Thanks Andrew will try that.
