Product Description (Detailed):
Take to the skies or conquer the ground with precision control using the FlySky FS-i6 2.4GHz 6-Channel RC Transmitter, paired seamlessly with the versatile FS-iA6B Receiver. This highly popular radio system is an excellent choice for beginners and experienced hobbyists alike, offering a compelling blend of features, reliability, and affordability for RC airplanes, helicopters, gliders, and multirotors. Operating on FlySky's advanced AFHDS 2A (Automatic Frequency Hopping Digital System 2A) protocol, it ensures robust, interference-free communication with a typical range exceeding 500 meters.
The FS-i6 transmitter provides intuitive control with its backlit LCD screen for easy programming, digital trims, dual-rate adjustments, and customizable switches for flight modes and other functions. It supports 20 model memories, allowing you to easily switch between different aircraft configurations. The included FS-iA6B receiver is a compact 6-channel unit that goes beyond standard PWM outputs. Critically, it offers both PPM (Pulse Position Modulation) and iBUS (Intelligent Bus) digital outputs. PPM simplifies wiring to flight controllers by consolidating multiple channels onto a single wire, reducing clutter. For even faster and more accurate signal transmission with minimal latency, iBUS provides a high-speed digital interface, making it ideal for modern flight controllers and advanced setups. The FS-iA6B also boasts dual antennas for superior reception and interference rejection, along with a built-in failsafe function to protect your model in case of signal loss. Whether you're building your first RC drone, upgrading an existing airplane, or delving into the world of FPV, this FlySky FS-i6 and FS-iA6B combination delivers a reliable, feature-rich, and user-friendly experience for all your remote control needs.
The FlySky FS-i6 is a compact, reliable, and affordable 2.4GHz 6-channel transmitter designed for RC hobbyists, drone pilots, and FPV builders. It operates on FlySky's AFHDS 2A protocol, ensuring low latency and high signal integrity even in crowded radio environments.
The included FS-iA6B receiver provides PPM, i-BUS, and SBUS support for modern digital flight controllers and supports dual antennas for enhanced range and signal redundancy. With intuitive navigation and a backlit LCD, configuration is simple even for beginners.
Ideal for controlling quadcopters, RC planes, gliders, cars, and boats, the FS-i6 offers excellent value and performance for intermediate to advanced users.
