I've been thinking about writing a new firmware for the RC4GS. It uses a STM32 mcu which is something I can work with. But I haven't tried to track down any information beyond that. I've been crazy busy. I have had people ask me for more than 8 channels out of their radios. Almost had one guy convinced to fund a $10k 16ch pistol radio development project but it didn't work out. | ||||||||

Ergonomics are way more than just the handle though. And I'm more hoping they get their shit firmware fixed in this new transmitter. | |

I'm saving this for later. I own the RC4GS and wouldnt mind getting extra channels for the 2-speed / Aux wire from Mamba X. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk |

| Re: New FlySky controller? FlySky FS-GT5 6 Channel Transmitter & FS-Gi6 Receiver Set The gt5 is also available for around 75 shipped from a few sellers on ebay as well. So has anyone been able to try it out? Was waiting for some feedback/reviews from the community before buying. Still not sure if it is compatible with the older gt2/3 rx which I have a lot of!

| Re: New FlySky controller? FlySky FS-GT5 6 Channel Transmitter & FS-Gi6 Receiver Set They already have a 4ch touch-screen version (Fs‑It4s). My brother owns it, and I can assure you it's firmware is far from "shit" lol. They also have put out several firmwares for several of their radios lately, so they do indeed fix problems.

Dang, that GT5 is probably the best 5ch value out there atm. The question remains if you can use them with the older 3ch AFHDS[1] receivers.

I am not sure if it could do an exponential mix on the rear steer mix as the DX4C can provide. If it could, it would reduce how often I would need to change between mixes. But it would be nice to pull the Mamba X's aux channel out onto its own knob, so the drag brake could be adjusted on the fly etc. And it would be nice to have access to the gyro function from time to time, and on the spektrum that requires freeing up the 3rd and 4th channels on the rx. It still looks like a bargain, but you really need to buy the radio that fits your needs. Maybe they will offer an updated version next year. | |
