Hi all thanks for replies just wondering are the FlySky FS-I6X any good for me as I've spotted a couple on fleabay here in the uk

For what it's worth, all my tanks run off my FlySky i6X.

There are better radios, but that one is Ok. Years light ahead than the Fuaba anyway, and for a fraction the price.

Receivers also easily available and affordable.

Would that flysky work with a tamiya Abrams? Also what receiver would be good

Any radio in the market will work with that tank.
That radio will come with the receiver.

Ah okay I assume the same goes for a tamiya tiger one.. 6 channels is best right?

All the radios work with all the tanks.

The more channels the better.

Except old Heng Long, Taigen, Torro, Mato etc, they have their own codes.

Of course I meant with hobby electronics, not those.
BUT all those boards have a flysky chip receiver inside, so it means it is possible to control them with a hobby radio, we just need somebody with interest in cracking the code.

At least that is what Kevin from RC tanks australia told me.

Alright guys thanks for the help! I think I know what needs to doing now.
