The FlySky 2.4 receivers in general and the 3ch in particula
Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 11:35 pm
When I bought my 9x I ordered two 6 channel RX (since it is close to free) and a couple of 3channel Flysky receivers that I intended to use with the excellent 3ch car TX they sell just as crazy cheap as the 9x. It is clearly stated everywhere that the 3ch receivers are only intended for ground use so I never thought about using them in planes.
My intention was to eventually buy a FrSky TX module, but when I tested the Flysky 6ch receivers, they worked flawlessly. As far as I can tell they perform on par with the Futaba 2.4GHz system I used previously. So I stuck with Flysky. And then I ran out of receivers. I should have bought a bunch of 6ch receivers to start with, but I did not. Just for the hell of it, I installed a 3channel receiver in a largish flying wing to test just how bad they are.
They are actually. not bad at all... I have now flown the wing as far off as I ever want to fly it and I have yet to experience any glitches etc. The 3channel receivers are tiny and have a programmable fail-safe behaviour, two very important features.
Has anyone else used the 3channel receivers for planes, or have you all stuck with the plan?
What are your experiences with the other two Flysky v2 receivers? I have used the 6ch version and am impressed.
