Flysky radios

[Mike Byer]

Anyone using these? Is there a way to get the 3rd channel to work a fuel needle?

 

[Dan Pralle]

Yes

 

[FloridaScaleBoater]

Yes

Explane please

 

[Mike Byer]

Other than sending it for a software hack?

MIKE,

Did you know you have to rebind radio every time you change a model? I can send you a list of people that ask this question.

Why run a $1000.00 boat on a $40.00 radio? Mine is LONG GONE. Seen some BAD crashes all with FS.

Are you referring to the FSIT-4? I have one and it has third channel needle capability and will bind to multiple receivers. I have four in mine at this time. It also does not need to be hacked. The only thing I see might be a problem is most Fly Sky stuff has problems when you run the receiver at over 6.5v. I use vr's on my receivers. The touch screen is intuitive for me but very hard to see in sunlight or with polarized glasses. Not saying they're better, but I have found them to be reliable.

 

[Mike Byer]

Yes I feel the same way about cheap radio/expensive boat. All I can get my ch3 button to do is run the servo from extreme to the other when you bump it, not small adjustments like a normal 3rd channel does. It's a gt3b.

That flysky radio must be hacked to work as a traditional third channel.

 

[Dan Pralle]

Is the exp set to 0% on channel 3?

 

[Dan Pralle]

When I had a 3rd channel my flysky worked it fine with the thumb button.

I realize that this is old...
But the fs-it4s is completely programmable...3rd channel can be assigned to TR5 thats linear... Very nice radio..

I have the f s it 4S and it's worked fine for 2 years for me I'm going on my third season with absolutely no problems and you do not have to rebind it for every model and I haven't tried it yet but I believe the four channel can be linear also free Power tilt and trim

 

[RobertDoak]

Oh yea...great radio..i just wish other Main streamers will look at the specs and modulating info.....I will agree..not all the bells and whistles as the $$$ brands but still an awesome system....plus telemetry...big plus

the Futaba 4pls is a 4 channel, 3rd is a button an the 4th is a CW/CCW dial I have bound the two channels , works great. I have tried alot of radios an lost boats due to the radio, Futaba is the only brand I trust on water,
