FlySky FS-i6 2.4GHz 6CH Transmitter

The FlySky FS-i6 is a 6-channel 2.4GHz transmitter designed for entry-level and intermediate FPV drone builds, RC planes, cars and boats. Running on FlySky's AFHDS protocol, it comes with either the FS-iA6B 6-channel receiver, which outputs both PPM and iBUS, or the FS-iA6 receiver with 6 PWM outputs, ensuring compatibility with most flight controllers including Betaflight, iNav and ArduPilot stacks.

Key features

• 6 channels: 4 proportional sticks plus 2 auxiliary switches for arming, modes and functions

• Backlit LCD screen displays real-time telemetry including receiver voltage and signal strength

• FS-iA6B receiver outputs PPM sum (single-wire) or iBUS (digital serial), selectable via jumper

• Model memory stores settings for up to 20 different aircraft or vehicles

• Dual-rate and exponential adjustments available per channel for fine-tuning response curves

Specifications

• Channels: 6

• Frequency: 2.4GHz

• Protocol: AFHDS 2A and AFHDS

• Display: 128 x 64 backlit LCD

• Control range: approx. 500 m

• Transmitter weight: 392 g

• Transmitter size: 174 x 89 x 190 mm

• Receiver: FS-iA6B (6CH, PPM/iBUS output), 47 x 26.2 x 15 mm, or FS-iA6 (6CH PWM)

• Power: 4 × AA batteries (transmitter)

The FS-iA6B's dual output modes make it a practical choice for flight-controller integration: PPM for single-wire simplicity on boards with limited UART ports, iBUS for digital signal integrity and two-way telemetry when the FC supports it.

This is the standard FlySky FS-i6 set (also written FSi6 or FS i6), with the FS-iA6B or FS-iA6 receiver. It is the entry point of the FS-i6 family: the FS-i6X adds firmware-unlockable channels and the FS-i6S swaps the menu wheel for a touch screen.
