This is my sixth RC video! This video takes you through the features of the FlySky i6x transmitter! I walk through what you get in the box such as the receiver and extra decals, I also go through the features and menus plus settings within the menus to help anyone with navigating around the UI. After going through how to use the transmitter, I go through different options and models similar to this transmitter and display individual components such as receivers by themselves, wires, and other bundles. Hopefully you find or found this video informational and or entertaining and thanks for watching and enjoy!
🞇Creator Message: Be sure to reference the chapters in the video if you would like to see different parts of the process! This video has a sort of a documentary type style. You can jump to the flight footage, watch the frame building, electronics setup, software and quad setup, etc! Enjoy!
🞇Information: I received this transmitter during Christmas of 2019 and have been using it for the past 2 and a half years. This transmitter is a great beginner controller using AFHDS 2A protocol and many beginners will find that it is a great way to enter the hobby!
If you have any questions about components, feel free to ask!

After watching this video now I know the basics thank you.

@taammedii6270 Год назад

Thank you soo much Bro ! I have just got my flysky i6x a d other channels have no intro to this TX, all they talk about is Telemetry, aux and other complex stuff blah blah....... maybe to look cool so as to get likes. After watching this video now I know the basics thank you.

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

Yeah no problem! Thanks for the kind comment! That was my intent with making this video originally! I figured that since I had learned how to use the controller with no easy-to-follow or structured tutorials, that I would combine what I know to create a comprehensive guide as something that buyers can watch or people who just need to look quickly at certain features or built-in menus, etc. Glad it was of help and awesome to hear that you got a transmitter!

@fklotaloi 2 месяца назад

I bought it on 2018 it still sells , unlike other brands. Wow !! that's great !!

@ViggenProductions 2 года назад

What an awsome video! Really nice to have all the tutorials in the same video! How do you make those text things in the beginning of each chapter?

@Adam_Carbone 2 года назад

Thanks! I like to make sure I include as much info as possible! The little text things are a rectangular box that reels to the right followed by a slightly slower slider to create a cool little effect as the text slides in

@thisathsenula Год назад

Love it

@user-yq5dm5gq2q Год назад

Do you know where could use the knob auxiliary buttons? And if I want to put lights to the aeroplane. Where could connect them to the receiver? Sorry for my English and thanks.

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

No problem! So by default the radio has only 6 channels per model but for the i6x (not the regular i6), you can change it to use 10 channels. If you have a receiver that has more than 3 or 4 channels for an airplane, you can go into the setup settings and set the switches to the channels on the receiver (and you can use the labels under the knobs or switches to figure out what channel to set it to). For example, you could plug in lights to channel 5 on your receiver, then go into your transmitter and set channel 5 to be controlled by switch SWA or SWB and then that corresponding switch will toggle them. Hope that helps let me know if you have any other questions!

@user-yq5dm5gq2q Год назад

@@Adam_Carbone I have got the flysky i6x and has 10 channel already. The ports to the receiver have already covered. I have 6 channel receiver.

@splash_shark6625 Год назад

How would I have the throttle go forward and reverse because I’m putting it in a vw bus RC

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

Did you modify or swap your throttle stick to be self centering, that would be the first thing you would want to do to ensure that it doesn't move when you aren't touching the stick :D

@CurtisTheFlyer Год назад

Trying to help a friend with an FS I6x. When setting the expo there is no Sport Mode when flipping SWA. Is there a fix for this to be able to use SWA (sport mode) for alternate settings ?

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

The sport mode is automatically set for SWA so if it is not working, the first thing I would check is if in the "Display" tab, you see the SWA switch being flipped at all

@CurtisTheFlyer Год назад

@@Adam_Carbone Ok thanks. Will do. Nothing changed on the Expo page when I tried. If SWA isn't working, could I reassign a different switch to channel 1 and get the same functionality ? Great Video and a big help !!! Thank you.

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

@@CurtisTheFlyer Yeah you can assign the channels to other switches in the AUX. Channels tab if you wanted or had to use another one. Once it is set, you can flip the switch under the modes switches and see if the mode changes :D

@cannabisoutlawz Год назад

Can this transmitter fly FMS and Horizon hobby planes if i change out the recievers?

@Adam_Carbone 5 месяцев назад

It cannot as those are usually some sort of Spektrum DSM protocol or Frsky like D8 or D16 protocol. This is Flysky AFHDS 2A protocol, you could always put a flysky receiver in those types of models though

@cannabisoutlawz 5 месяцев назад

@AdamRCarbone thanks I'm using this with FMS I just put a flysky reciever...I will never buy Spekjunk again

@bluecavemen Месяц назад

The pwm and ppm I select ppm and when I hit ok then cancel it goes back to pwm?

@Adam_Carbone Месяц назад

You have to select the setting you want, then HOLD cancel and it should emit a high pitch beep to indicate it saved

@andyrbush 6 месяцев назад

Just about got my radio programmed. BUT who's idea was it to make the OK key to sometimes mean OK and other times to mean cancel and the cancel key to sometimes means cancel and sometimes mean OK?

@Adam_Carbone 6 месяцев назад

Yeah haha you get used to it eventually. To save things you hold the cancel button and it will always chime in like a high pitch when it saves, and if you tap the cancel button to cancel, a lower pitch is played to signify you just backed out. :D

How controller simulator game works & How to connect crossfire or another TX?

@Adam_Carbone 2 года назад

You can connector to a simulator simply by plugging in the cable to your computer and the controller. You can also get an extra wire to connect two of the controllers together for trainer & student modes. You can do mods to get crossfire and elrs modules working with OpenTX on the i6x controller but it is more on the advanced side. Albert Kim made two videos about it for both the i6 and the i6x. Hope that helps!

@TW39 5 месяцев назад

How many switch do u get with the remote control

@Adam_Carbone 5 месяцев назад

There are 4 aux switches and 2 dials. 1 of them is a 3-position switch and the other 3 are 2-position

@franklipira7919 7 месяцев назад

I have a project that I need it to go at least 2000 feet or 600 m

@taurus38splul 2 года назад

Does it come with a quick guide?

@Adam_Carbone 2 года назад

Yeah it has a manual with just some general usability instructions for different menus and stuff 0:47. There are a lot of tutorials online including this video! Feel free to ask any questions too!

@omargdottin Год назад

Can I use a gyro reaciver with this model?

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

Yeah that should work as long as it is a Flysky receiver. Usually the gyro on receivers like that is completely independent from the actual channel control on the radio, so it might auto-stabilize based on what servos/control surfaces you plug into those channels but other than that it acts like a regular receiver from the controller/radio. Hope that helps!

@romyou7683 2 года назад

@@Adam_Carbone The motor does not receive the signal

@Adam_Carbone 2 года назад

@@romyou7683 Is your receiver binded and if you look at the very bottom of the channel numbers on your receiver, there are symbols for positive, negative, and signal so make sure those are in the correct orientation, it won't hurt for them to be backwards, it just won't work

@sagesbikesandboards1561 Год назад

What kind of range does this get?

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

From my experience it gets around 500m at least of orange even with a little interference, great for park flying for both drones or Rc planes especially for people wanting to try out the hobby, but if you already have experience then something else might be worth checking out

@sagesbikesandboards1561 Год назад

@@Adam_Carbone thanks

@franklipira7919 7 месяцев назад

What is the range?

@Adam_Carbone 7 месяцев назад

Your range depends on a lot of factors like where you are flying and what other signal may be interfering. In an ideal world it could probably go miles but in a place populated with WiFi and radio signal it could be anywhere from 300-500 meters, just depends

@juliandevr1 Год назад

No flight timer?

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

Not a stock feature but if you are technical enough and feel up for the challenge, you can put OpenTX firmware onto the i6X which does have a timer setting of course. Albert Kim made a tutorial video about it a little while ago: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dkHXLw7T87s.html (Note that it is a different process for the regular i6) Hope that helps, let me know if you have any other questions!

@Theguyinthe Год назад

Tape a kitchen timer on it lol

@Theguyinthe Год назад

Is this a multi protocol radio?

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

No it is a Flysky specific radio so it only supports protocols like AFHDS and AFHDS2A but if you are interested I could make a couple of recommendations 😁

@Theguyinthe Год назад

@@Adam_Carbone please

@Adam_Carbone Год назад

@@Theguyinthe So it all depends on the size of radio you want but the TX16s is a pretty great value, great features and has a 4in1 module built-in if you get that version. There is also the Radiomaster Zorro which is a smaller game-controller style radio and also has a 4in1 option and is about 70% of the cost. If you want something in between, there is the radiomaster boxer which has a 4in1 and is smaller than a tx16s but larger than the zorro in the sense that it is boxy so those are all great options depending on your needs. If you wanted to go even cheaper, there is the Junper t-lite (has to be v1) that you can get with a 4in1 and is also a game-controller style. I personally have a radiomaster tx12 which is like a smaller tx16s but instead of a 4in1 multi protocol module, it just has a single multiprotocol chip so it can only do things like frsky and futaba, so I ended up getting an external 4in1 multiprotocol module for it so that I can plug it in and basically use any protocol available. Hopefully that makes sense, let me know if you have any questions!
