    We review the new Flysky FS-G7P, pretty much the best RC radio under $100. Is it good for nitro too? Let's take a close look at this radio!

    I'll stick to my flysky gt5 love that radio. It has been great so far. No racing just bashing and having fun. But nice review before I buy I always check your channel. Your honest opinion has helped over the years. Thank you!

    I bought this with (Absima branded), I think it felt snappier than the GT5 it replaced. The Absima comes with a foam wheel which is nice. For my skill level I think this is brilliant.

    Just ran into this video, having had my G7P for 3 months now. Note that Absima ANT receivers seem to work OK, but probably only easily available in Europe (Absima appears to be rebranded FlySky). I have my G7P hooked up to Absima CR4S 4-Channel receiver R4WP Int. for a couple of buggies. No problem binding etc.
    I agree about the battery issue. I think it's an issue of dimensions of Amazon rechargeables vs AA spec. AA non rechargeable fit and work fine. I "fixed" mine by throwing some extra metal between the batteries and connectors.

    • @radiovlogi
      @radiovlogi 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's hit and miss with the batteries. Some rechargeable ones work fine, others don't. I am recalling from memory but I believe my IKEA ones don't work but VARTA is fine, except for their recycled envinronmentally friendly ones:D Not a big problem once you find 8 batteries, 4 for use and 4 to be charged in the meantime. But it did make me think the transmitter was dead when I first tried it.

    When it's not broken, it has great features and is nice to use.
    I'm waiting on my 4th radio under warranty now. #1 was the battery issue. #2 also had it so I just kept it. Then the steering started twitching and flaking out. #3 The steering centering spring just broke - plus I can see the steering starting to twitch slightly again.
    Anyone know where to get the right replacement potentiometer? Says "HJ and B5K 90deg" Sick of returning it. At least you can export/import you models and just have to rebind.

    Thank you for great review. Would love to see you demonstrate how you check for steering linearity. I have the GT5 and can’t see it.
    You also mentioned this radio maybe faster than a sanwa and spectrum. Which models were you referring to? Thank you again!

    • @RazorRC
      @RazorRC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      MX-6 and DX-5C. Linearity is hard to tell unless you run several different radios back to back, then it's obvious.

    I've also got the same problem with light tap and it resets itself. I'm afraid to take it to my local track because it's situated next to the lake and if the radio resets itself, my car will end up in the water.
    In this price bracket I highly recommend you check out the Radiolink RC4GS. I would really love to hear your opinion on that. The V3 just came out and to me it's the best value and reliability out of everything in this price range. What it lacks in crawler mixing and servo frequency setup it gains in speed steering setup and 30 models memory.

      @RazorRC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've got a review of the RC6GS. For the battery, non-rechargeable AA's work fine on mine, I also put a little solder on the connector so that it sticks out more for my NiMh AA's.

    $70?! Great value! Here in Canada the G7P is actually more expensive than the GT5 ($135 vs. $105). Still, hard to beat this radio for price and features. Don't know that I'd trust these for racing though (I'd be much more comfortable with one of the more common communication systems) but perfect for bashing or crawling 👍

    Looks like a nice radio. Unfortunately, I've been having range issues with my FlySky FS-GT5 6CH radio. Have you experienced that with that particular radio Razor? My vehicles are not even that far away and my Rx antenna is outside like it's supposed to be. Even if I raise the antenna on the Tx, it doesn't help. Maybe it's the rechargeable batteries I'm using? But I use those same batteries in my Spectrum DX5C and DX5 RUGGED with no issues 🤔. The newer stock radio from the V3 Granite gives me range issues too. I'll try them with good non rechargeable batteries to see if that helps. Thanks for another great video!

    Great review. I was so happy with this radio at start, but after few weeks it developed extreme jitter on the steering, and some on the throttle as well. bummed me up because I used the gt5 for years without any issue. also I have the battery issue as well, moved to lipo so solve it

    product has lots of features but its a super cheap radio, a slight tap will reset the radio (turn off/on) and a slight share makes the steering server jitter.. . I have had 2 of these radios and they both have the same problems. I can see lots of others reporting the same problems.
    For myself, I will not be getting another of these, I would recommend looking towards a different unit until (if?) they improve the build quality.
