Steve Adams Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Hi All Can anybody tell me what the difference between FrSky and FlySky 2.4Ghz Transmitters are? Is it a name change,and can stuff ie receivers and other components interchange? Please forgive my apparant arrogance as im new to this 2.4Ghz malarky!!

PatMc Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 They are different manufacturers & there's no interchangability. A Rx for one won't work with the other's Tx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Adams Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Pat, Many thanks for that. Which would u think is better FrySky,or Flysky,or is it purely a preference thing? Many Thanks Again Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyinBrian Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 There are many many FRsky users out there who are very happy, I dont know anyone using Flysky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris basson Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Frsky have been making 2.4 recievers for a number of years both to work with other manufacturer's tx's and their own tx modules, they have now started to make their own Taranis tx which Looks like Very powerful bit of kit for the money using OpenTx software so very flexible & well supported!....I've Heard of Flysky but know Nothing about them!

Steve Adams Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Thanks Guys for clearing that up for me I just hope that my FlySky 9 ch Tx i got last crimbo from my GFis as good as the FrSky systems! The only thing that baffles me a bit is why mine uses 8 AA batteries as aposed to my Sanwa Vangaurd 6ch Tx used a seald unit type battery in the 90s when i first started this wonderfull hobby. The Sanwa i still have in fact like new as well it was 35mhz btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyAndJo Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Steve,I had the flysky tx for over a year, only got rid a few months ago and replaced with a spektrum dx7s. I can honestly say it was a cracking transmitter! Never failed me once or had any glitching, easy enough to use and pretty well made. I just did the "lipo conversion " on mine to save swapping batteries. Its exactly the same transmitter as the turnigy 9x.Although I swapped mine out for the spektrum because I wanted the convenience of "bnf " I really do miss it! You won't go far wrong!
