Radiolink RC6GS V3 7CH RC Transmitter R7FG Waterproof Receiver for RC Car | 30 Models Storage 2.4Ghz Voltage Telemetry Surface Remote Radio Controller Combo for RC Crawler, Drifting, Car and Boat

These are so cheap that it's better for me to buy a bunch of Transmitter / Receiver combos and then be able to run ALL the vehicles at the same time if I so choose. Let's say someone wants to drive my Mojave... well here's the remote, have fun. While that's happening I can rip around the Kraton. Yes, you have more crap to haul with you when you go run your RC toys. Big deal... it's worth the added flexibility. And should one of the transmitters meet an untimely demise I'll have a back up so the fun doesn't have to stop. The stability "gyro" in the receiver works pretty good. Being able to easily tinker with settings via the transmitter is nice. It's not a fancy interface but it works. The "China" font in the menus doesn't look great but it's pretty easy to read, even in bright sunlight. The number of channels allows for all sorts of add-ons that may or may not be useful to you... but these things are so cheap that it doesn't feel like you are over-paying for features you don't need. Is the response time great? I don't know. I'm not a pro level racer. The range however is great! I can run a truck an easy 300 yards away (to the point where I can barely tell what the heck I am doing) and I've never lost signal. You won't win any style points for running this gear in front of your fancy buddies but you'll have a lot more money in your pocket that will allow you to buy spare parts for when you run out of talent and crash... and if you beat your buddies using your "cheap" gear it just makes the victory all that much better.

Im on my third RL radio,not because they break,because I build and sell CUSTOM RC crawlers.ANd these TX and RX have the same options the 300 400 radios have,and work the same, low MS times,distance.

This thing is leaps and bounds ahead of the WFly X9 that I was running before buying this one. No frills and great hardware. I get like 30 hours of actual runtime with using the battery tray and 6 AA Li-ion 1.5 volt rechargeables. It's way sturdier than what I came from too. The X9's Steering dual rate analog knob would randomly go up or down 20 or more points, during runtime and just sitting still. Obviously that isn't good. I landed on this Radiolink seeing all the good review and I am very happy with it. And the receivers are a fraction of the cost of most other brands. I wanted a Futaba for S.bus2 realtime telemetry, but Futaba is geared toward racing, and the Futaba receivers are 100+ dollars. I don't need all that; I only have half a dozen boats and 1 Arrma truck. 5/5 Great product.

Getting back into RC and needed a new radio. I have been into RC since the early 80's and have had many radio systems. Amazing what you can get today for $72! I really can't say anything bad about this system, some small things would be silly because of the price point. The menu is easy to navigate, and everything is configurable. Very pleased with this, so much so that I wished I had splurged on their 8-channel system, which I may have to do as it looks like I am back into the hobby. Batteries have lasted for quite a while so far using alkaline. Telemetry works great, RSSI, RX and Battery voltage on screen and programmable warnings for voltage and 30 model memory is nice. It just amazes me the features packed into these compared to years ago! No regrets for this purchase, even when I order the 8-channel version, this will be for friends and family to use.

PRO: This is a great value for any RC addict. The computer radio is simple to use and allows for all the precision tuning you want. The included 6ch gyro receiver has been working great in my 2wd Slash for a couple of months now. The gyro in combination with the radio makes for quick straight line accelerations out of the corners a breeze. The receivers are inexpensive so updating your fleet of vehicles won't brake the bank. The convenience of having one transmitter to control all your ground rc's is awesome. No need to constantly swap rechargeable batteries out from one to another. I'm currently using 6 AA rechargeable batteries in the transmitter and the rate at which the transmitter drains the batteries is low. You can connect a lipo via the JST connector if you remove the battery tray. CONS: The plastic on the transmitter and 6ch receiver both feel a little cheap. If you like to drive one handed like you can with the 3ch Spectrum transmitter you'll be disappointed with this because you can't. The wheel is just out of reach for your tumb. It's really set up more towards racing. Binding additional RadioLink receivers is also a pain. I may have had a bad receiver because I could not bind to it at all. I did return it and the new receiver did allow me to bind to it with a bit of effort. Not sure why there is a Star option for Touch Screen as it doesn't come with one.

Best radio

Heres the skinny- I like the ergonomics of the Radiolink RC6GS Transmitter. It was easy to program my individual channels and update via USB. I am using it for a Traxxas TRX4 with servo winch, so all 6 channels are used. The important aspect- it is not waterproof. You must take the time to waterproof it. My Traxxas RX box is waterproof, just in case it isn't, these are cost-effective enough to have a spare or two to keep in the trail box. The buttons are a very positive click. I only need one 3 position switch for the winch, which works out well. This is a tx/rx I would absolutely recommend to someone looking to upgrade their equipment but not spend Spektrum money. Everything has a learning curve. Take a few minutes are read the instructions before you jump in... you'll end up referencing them anyway. It is quick to program each piece channel once you learn the skill- to compare it, just a tad slower than a DX5C. For the price point, the Radiolink RC6GS is a steal- 6 channels of happiness! TRX4 drivers- A servo winch and all your lockers/ 2 speed WILL work on this!! Spekrtum DX2, 3, 4, and 5 series, including Rugged and Pro won't do that. *Update. The video is showing a short crawl using the RC6GS 6 Channel TX/RX

This is definitely for Nitro cars or vehicle with a lot of servos and options. I’m using it for both an electric RC and Nitro RC. On the electric car this is way over kill but on my Nitro car this is perfect. So many setting and most importantly it has the voltage read out for my batteries on the nitro so I don’t end up with a run away. Another big benefit is the built in failsafe in the event of remote signal loss. You can have each channel do something and it’ll revert to that setting. I currently have my failsafe set for closing the carb of the nitro engine, pulling hard on the breaks, putting the transmission in neutral and locking the wheels to one side. This is perfect as now this car will never run away on me ever again with all these failsafes. Overall worth the money!

Good price for what you get !
