  • Is it time to swap out that RTR radio with something that has a bit more tech? Then you’ve hit the right video! We’re taking a look at the FlySky FS-G7P computer radio system. This budget radio coming in at under $100 US looks to be promising. It has tons of functionality inside and out. With multiple model memory, it could be a great radio for all types of surface uses. We were excited when FlySky reached out to see if we wanted to try this radio so we could show you another radio option for those looking for something different without a big spend.

    The real problem that we should all be railing against is RTR radios in general. Why does EVERY car need its own radio, when one can do the job for many. It's a waste. And it costs more. No options at all to buy just the chassis anymore. It's frankly stupid.

    • @khrisyeet8022
      @khrisyeet8022 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I couldn't agree more. Put out two versions. RTR and ARTR. Heck the ARTR they can add a few factory upgrades. Like Axial did with the Wraith RTR vs kit version.

      yes I boycot that andnow buy a Flysky only used with 7 receivers. Snd they should sell the receivers seperately for decent prices. In the beginning of 2000 people bought Futaba Attack2Er which was cheaper as 1 receiver alone, just to get the receiver and throwed away the rest of the box. I was angry and boycotted the market. Now I only buy 2nd hand.

    I just don't have the I.Q. to work this thing, nothing makes any sense. EVERY time I turn it on it want's me to do another fail safe, WHY? Trying to remember how to navigate every stupid step is rediculous with just 1 button and no arrows or indications of which way to push button. Just changing the model is a pita, I actually shut it off and on every time, just to make sure it's on the right one. Hate it. Had a flysky fsgt3b, it was MUCH better, but had lousy range, was huge, and heavy with 8 AA's! Bought a Radiolink RC4G, it has 4 buttons that look a whole lot more logical, no more flysky crap.

    I've had mixed luck with flysky radios. I have two gt3-cs. One seems to work great with nice range.... the other has mediocre range and is susceptible to interference causing glitches in steering and throttle input. Can never trust it on my faster vehicles. My gt2 seems to have nice range and I've not had any major issues at all. Like I said very mixed bag and the company offers little to no support.

    Love love love my Dumbo for the models that I don’t think I’ll need to fine tune much. Or that all the tubing can be sone via esc. Response time, accuracy and range are all top notch. Receivers around 15-20 depending if you want the gyro receiver or not. Binds to unlimited RC’s due to not having model memory
    Love telemetry though and that’s a sharp looking transmitter!
