fs gt3b st link for 5 bucks

[jh1985]

I know there are post about this radio around but I cant find it all in one spot or anyone who did it cheaper so here is what I found.

I am cheap because well I don't make enough to support my rc addiction.
I wanted more channels on my radio but I couldn't afford a 150 dollar radio.
So when i found the Fly sky fs-gt3b mods. Well it was about 25 bucks for a programmer I'll probably use once I couldn't do it. So I did a little digging and found out you don't need the programmer they say. You can use any st link programmer. So I found one on ebay for 5 bucks. Got it today and programmed the radio no issues at all. Only thing that sucked was waiting for a month for china to ship it. But it was worth the wait. Im very happy with the radio. I have 45.00 into the whole system and have 8 channels. Got my radio on sale a while back for 30.00.

Great find, although i will still support losikid just because, 1 he is a vendor on Rcc and 2 you can get support from him, and he has helped many on here to tailor their radios to their specific needs

I support the vendors here as well. Once I found this forum and all these guys that make these parts i was so happy. They are the people that make this such a great hobby to be in. You can get things you never dreamed of. Some people just Like to do it them selfs but don't have the money. Thats the target group I'm thinking of.

Nice find. I like the interface more than just the board, the price difference is minor but the protection of the interface vs an open board it great. Would be easy to mount this in the 3B and just leave it in there if possible.

On the 3C the pin outs that losikid's site sells is sooo much easier to use and makes for a great looking install.

This is very easy to hook up. On the back of the radio there are labels of the outputs (+5, gnd, swim, ???, ) you just match them up. You could very easily put this in the radio. I think it will fit in the handle under the battery. Ill try later today.
