Same mfr. Same firmware. Same RX's. The "B" is a little cheaper, little "clunkier" looking. The "C" costs a little more (especially if you get some of the colors around on Ebay), little nicer/newer looking. The early "C's" had issue with the main power switch which is easy to fix or the newer ones have a slightly different design. I don't have a lot of time on my "C", but from the little time I have it's similar in feel & operation to the "B". |

I found there was plenty to read about when googled !? here's some discussion. read up on Losi Kid's review... or go to OverKillRCdotcom I just picked up a used "C", the Tx/Rx were only a few days old/new. Bought it cause it has a few more functions then my cheapo RTR Tx has. And a third channel... that works no better then the "B" model does. Many don't find it's factory functions worthy, unless it's hacked/re-flashed. Losi Kid @ overkillrc has the stuff to sell or will do it for a serv./ship. fee. Probably best if ya just buy a hacked FlySky "C" from him. I'm keeping mine unaltered for now... but it can be altered to offer more useable channels (W proper RX)... and like the FS "B" Tx's... it has about the same potential for greatness. I think it uses the same "firmware flash" and hardware changes. But maybe not all are necessary. If you go with the GT3-C... be sure you purchase a current production model. As I believe the MFG'r has corrected for a fault in the steering wiring. * early production GT3-C's had issue with that. ^ easy fix tho' And tho' there was some issue with the steering wiring... The new TX's steering is bearing supported. I think the GT3-C will be every bit as good as the "B" was. But I can't speak for it's popularity. You can also still buy the old skool hacked "B" model from OverKillRC So ask Losi Kid which he thinks is a better choice  oh... I like that the "C" comes with a LiPo... and charges with a USB cable (included) |

Yeah, forgot about the LiPO in the "C".

Weight is also a factor. Even when I shoehorned a 3s1800mah into the B, it's still heavier than the C.
