FlySky FS-i6X 2.4GHz 6CH Transmitter with FS-iA10B 10CH Receiver

The FlySky FS-i6X is a 2.4GHz AFHDS 2A radio that ships set to six channels and unlocks up to ten through a firmware update, and this set pairs it with the FS-iA10B ten-channel receiver so the extra channels can actually be used. It is a common first radio for quadcopter, plane and helicopter builds that do not need an OpenTX system.

Key features

• Six channels as supplied, expandable to ten with the firmware upgrade
• AFHDS 2A link with 4096-step resolution and dual antennas for consistent orientation tolerance
• Backlit 128 x 64 LCD with model memory, so several airframes live on one radio
• FS-iA10B receiver included, with ten PWM outputs plus PPM, i-BUS and S.BUS
• USB connection for flight simulators, and four AA cells for power
