Great channel. And videos

[@deadstickduck2025]

Good watch.

[@jamesvaliensi7706]

missed you, welcome back!

[@JP-ij6gf]

Wojtek, thanks for the video, fantastic to see you again.

[@Beef424]

I was just thinking of ordering a new radio for my blackhorse viper build. I’m currently leaning towards the frsky x18s.

[@Prevettspecialdesign]

Great to see you back ! Cant wait too se you fit the FC in the Avanti, I fit these flight controllers to all my models, you can do so much with them.

[@AerialRCFun]

Great channel, thanks! Love my Frsky X20HD. I want to make an FPV jet with great efficiency and longer flights. Anxious to see your videos of Avanti LR FPV!

[@chrisr4274]

Great to see you putting out more content. Looking forward to more. Love the Avanti S. Wish mine was as fast as yours!!🙂

[@SkyRCFanatic]

Long time no see! Nice video!

[@murph550]

Wow can't believe this is the first time I am seeing a review of that radio. Only ever hear about Tandem with the X18/20.
You'll love the Avanti in FPV. I have used INAV in my smaller models, but for my larger FPV EDF and prop planes (V1200, Mirage, Typhoon, Avanti S) I run a HobbyEagle A3 super so I can more easily adjust gains in flight, and still manually trim my model. This has saved me on delta wings that will oscillate at high speed. A Motionsic BAG gimbal and head tracking is a great compliment to FPV as well.
Since you like running 8S+, you may get more flexibility keeping battery telemetry on your radio, and keeping your VTX + FC on lower voltage. I never had success displaying battery voltage > 6S in INAV and BF. HV FCs are also hard to find.

Very nice video!

[@samdish]

Thanks 4 posting ! 🎉

Welcome back Wojtek 🤙

[@ficosk8]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts about that radios. I learned to fly one year ago and have a DX8 G2 radio. I was thinking sometimes to switch. Now I have a good idea since I´m also a thumber. Just the receivers of Frsky seem to be more expensive than for example LemonRX for Spektrum. And there are so many. But the telemetry as you have programmed it is super. Also this Avanti and setup!

[@cbfsoar15]

love my frsky

[@stanleycarling]

Interesting..i only asked you few days ago to do a frsky review.
I thought frsky and your horus had better reception than say spektrum and futarba ie more powerful .
Do your fellow flyers fly spektrum or futarba at your field? do they have reception issues as well ?
like the look of your new transmitter and how it fits in your hand..but looks a bit toyish to me and more suited to drones.
Being so small i think it would take pinch grip users a lot of time to adjust.

[@Falla87]

Can you make a video setting up your X lite and SR8 to your Avanti please. I have just bought a V2 Avanti running 6s 7000mah 70c, X lite and SR8 and SpeedyBee fixed wing flight logger.

[@Rippin-Rich]

The quality of frsky radios vs the radiomaster is night and day difference. My tx16 feels like a toy compared to the premium feel of the x20.
Iv even converted my fpv planes and drones from crossfire to frsky 900mhz rx and the range is great.

[@TL_RC]

Great video and smooth flying! Nice radio as well, I am very interested. Do you know if I could use my TBS Crossfire Module in the bay on the back of the Twin X Lite?

[@AphexTwinII]

Welcome back friend! Have you gotten the new Avanti V2 in your country yet? It is really amazing and much better than the Avanti V1. Also, where did you buy your Frsky Twin X Lite? I can not find it in the US, only Aliexpress.

[@samavella8831]

Thank you got the informative review.
Can you add a TBS Crossfire Module?
Aldo, doe it support EdgeTX.

[@FCordara]

Hello, but the motor SSS 3660-1650kv is for boat?

[@bobturner3388]

Its a radio for thumb fliers, pinchers won't work very well!

[@wynnrobins6606]

I'd like to know how you make your EDF sound so good. Understand you print your own shrouds... Do you have files to share or for sale? You edfs sounds like real jets!!!! Thanks. From New Zealand

[@vkovar0]

Hi, I enjoy every one of your videos. Your experiments are very inspiring. My question is: Why did you choose Frsky radio? There are other high quality radios that use solid protocols like Jeti, Futaba etc. ...

[@woltervandenberg]

Have you tried the Frsky X18? Its a bit bigger then the Twin X lite but it feels so much better in the hands then the Radiomaster

[@thomasedwards629]

Have you seen that the -100% output on the Frsky protocols are much lower than the threshold for your ESCs? Most ESCs I connect to don't turn on until -65% throttle (with Frsky TW that is ~1150us PWM) so I've had to add compensation to get full throttle response on the low end. ESC calibration doesn't seem to help on the low end.

[@gilmarvha]

hey friend, what drone is that there? is it new release?

[@jeffreygalang3923]

How long is your flight time using li-ion batteries
I also using liions on my rc plane

[@bbbl1645]

Looking for a good 90mm edf unit for SeBart Avanti. I could also 3d the shroud you made. Let me know if it’s available.

[@mariuszabedzki6446]

Hi, do you have STL files for 3d printed landing gear ? or project file if you made it in fusion 360 :) Thanks ! great channel !

[@rctor6273]

Hi, have you given up the hobby..??
