Thanks for the full review!!

I got replaced my spektrum dx5d rugged for this sytem. Best choice i made. So much easier to use.

You sound just like Kyle Douglas pro archer.. wow it's crazy.. Exactly the same

Oh man did I need this video! Thank you! New SUBSCRIBER!!

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!

This is the review I needed to see it’s like it was made just for me . Answered every question or doubt I had about this transmitter 👍👍 you just cost me $130 au$ lol

Nice review! I'll be at Nor-cal later today.. thought that track looked familiar haha!

Haven’t been into rc long but I started with the noble then picked up a gt5 this week way better than the gt5 thanks for the video

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.

Mine came with a foam wheel. It's upgraded now

I like my FS-GT5. I only wish it had a lanyard hook. Lol. My Noble Pro is awesome.

Ive been rocking banggood for years, still the best place to get cheap jx servos, Brushless motors, Radio systems. Thanks for the review. Im almost done my team Corally Kronos xtr build. I got a 4082 1720 rocket, Max 8, jx ecoboost servo, Im just deciding on a good budget radio and 6s lipo. So perfect timing for your video to drop..

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.

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.

Awesome review, appreciate you taking the time to do a through review! Will this wok on my Traxxas Slash 2wd?

Picked up one of these for my son and that plastic wheel had to go right away. Couldn’t find the optional Flysky one anywhere so I bought the Yeah Racing Type A wheel and it bolted up perfectly.

Yup, that’s what I run. It sticks out a bit, but not too bad.

I now have a Spektrum DX5 Rugged and by far the Spektrum menu is the most archaic menu ever. It reminds me of MSDOS. Couple that fumbly menu with the touch pad and wow what crap.

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.

Nice radio unit the stering started giving me problems unable to get help so far

2 years down the road, do you still feel this is the best controller under $100? Looking for a controller for my race vehicles. Thanks, and love your videos

The problem with that is where are the receivers? I can't find extra receivers just by their selves.

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!

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

$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 👍

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

@@RazorRC did you have issues with the radio losing all the settings? If so did the firmware update fix it?

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.

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.

@@RazorRC Thanks. Also found your review on RC6GS.

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!

I haven't noticed, but i don't go long range with the radios.

I would like to know how it handles long ranges in a city(Lots of 2.4GHz interference). My Flysky FS-GT5 loses signal in such places.

Hi. Is it possible to assign a Channel (to manage a winch) to The tr-1 momentary Button? Thanks

Where did you get the foam wheel cover?

Would you recommend this for my crawler

I think I will stick with my get 5 I like the features more of the gt5. Like svc and abs the feel of the get 5 to me is way better.

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.

There is a version with a foam steering wheel

I'm new to the hobby.Can you explain what you meant when you said you had to add 3% expo?

The biggest problem I see is that it makes my gt5 receivers obsolete, because it is a new protocol.. A bit of a pity, being the same brand.

Btw beaver has the same problem with his controller and it resets with a tap because of failing battery connection

👍

Mine came with the foam steering wheel cover

Not bad

Cool. TY. Been looking for a decent affordable radio. The older Flysky was one ugly duckling. This one is much nicer looking

Ah yes, mine has the same battery problem with rechargeable ones. Pretty serious oversight if you ask me.

I have a arm a big rock want a better feel for my hand but new to this stuff. Want something that’s easy to hook up to whet I have in truck. Any help. Like I said I’m 56 all new to this stuff.
