- Will this radio really fly everything? In this video I use an fq777 pocket drone to show just how good this radio is.
I hope this is a good start for anyone who just bought this radio. - Zábava
My TX16S just arrived today. Thanks for this video to help me get started!
Fantastic , nice simple explanation .
The more I look into this radio the more I feel the need to purchase one
Thanks, this was just what I needed. Newbie here, had no idea what to do...now thanks to your video I've bound it to my TH2 Freestyle and I'm flying!
Thank you so much. Finally a RC multi-protocol radio that is user friendly. I've been waiting for years for RC radio to be able to do that. Thank you so much for sharing this review. Very helpful and informative
Very nice demonstration of this multi-protocol radio. Thank You!
Fantastic review man. I am surely getting this radio now.
I knew that it could do so many different protocols, but I didn’t think it would be that easy, thanks for that, now I know that some of my toy drones I will be able to use with it, not just my big fast ones .
Thanks for this easy to follow basic operations video! BTW, I have a CX-10 that I am going to have some fun with for the first time in a long while. 😊
I just got one. Did you get yours to work?
Great instructions, sir. This is the radio I want to purchase.
mine will be here in a day or 2, very exciteda thanks for making this video.
Just got my radio and this is what I needed to see so I can try my Syma X5C
Nice! I knew it had a lot of different protocols but I didn't realise just how many! I've got a little CX10 lying around here somewhere, going to have to bind it up for a laugh when mine arrives. Thanks for the beginners guide.
Let us know what you think! People would be surprised at how much it changes the experience with these little cheap toys. It’s fun. ;)
For a laugh 👍🏼 I would try that too but I'm sure my cx10 batteries are not good anymore.
Thanks just got my TX and found your how to vid. Thanks very much.
I watched again ! Great video again!
Very well explained Gr8 vid Cheers from India 👍👍
Great vid man! Liked and subscribed 👍🏼
Me to I love TX16S great work ✌️😉👍
Awesome content, dude. Respect from Russian RC hobbyists)
Thanks bud! Stay safe.
Hey man, awesome video, i was just wondering if you'd be able to do the same bind process with one of those little can rc cars, then all you'd need is a little rc boat and you'd have the full set haha. It would be cool if this is possible, but I'm not sure how channel mapping and such would work.
Very Kool review. I have an assortment of brands of drones and would really like to fly them all with one radio. Hoping this one will do that as well as winged modules I want. Dandahermit
I’ve just bought this radio but haven’t really sat down with it yet and gone through everything but this was helpful, thanks. Now where’s that old Hubsan?
Thanks, helped a lot. Awesome.
Very well, great teacher
Nice very informative 👌
Great video, i have that minidrone and im waiting my radiomaster.... thanks
😉👍Thanks for sharing!!!!
Thanks for posting this ! I just bought one recently and I heard someone say you can pilot MJX Bugs drones with this TX. I HAVE a couple different Bugs drones. So, IS there a way to set this up for the Bugs ?? Thanks again for posting.
Please please please do a full video series on this radio. Cracking video sir Thankyou
Thank you for excellent review I have same little drone lol,, but I have a question with this Radio I can fly anything from Horizon hobby planes and as well from motion Rc too, so no need to buy any more receivers in order to fly this planes????
Thanks for the vid.
Excellent review lol I have the same quad and my question is with the original tx flying this little quad it’s kind of difficult so hows the flying with this tx 16s it’s better to fly this little quad?????
Nice! Good stuff! Now I gotta go find my CX10WD TX and see if I can get it to work LOL! After all this IS a part of the reason I got this radio 😎👍
Let me know if that worked! I'll let you figure that out for me, haha!
@@birdmanomgwtfbbq Ha Ha I got called out. No Prob, will do the ground work and see. May take a month or two but will respond back one way or the other. 😁👍
@@scooterfpv8864 I figured out it does bind to the CX drones. I found it under the model setup.
@@birdmanomgwtfbbq Cool! Gonna have to give it a try soon. Thanks for the info! 👍👊😁
@@birdmanomgwtfbbq good to hear that, may I know which protocol you had selected? I tried CX10 and Q303, test with all sub-protocols, but still cannot make it work. My drone is Cheerson CX-10 (green color).
I also tested for my FQ777-FQ03 quad, also cannot get it to work with FQ777 and Hontai with all sub-protocols.
no luck
very good video
I wonder if it works for the jetjat ultra? I love that little drone.
Thanks for this helpful video! I just have one question: what are the right settings for the 'Battery meter range' and 'Battery low alarm'? I keep getting a buzz and voice saying "Transmitter battery low". I am using the RadioMaster TX16S in combination with (2x) Panasonic 3350mAh 3.7V 6.7A (18650) Batteries. Thanks a lot.
Hello,
I am a fan of your CZcams channel. Already seen several videos about the rc transmitter Radiomaster TX16s.
But now I have a question about the binding of a small drone of which I do not know the 2.4 protocol. How can I find out or how can the bond be established?
Kind regards, Casper van Beek
awesome video! does opentx come pre installed on the radiomaster ?
hey man. nice vid. how can i find out which protocol those cheap drones use? for example a no name drone?
The Syma 5xc! ...how can I forget?? First flight...went up about 50 feet...I lost control of it...it waved goodbye to me. And it was the last time it was ever seen. I still think about you sometimes.....
Liked and subbed. I will need all assistance available when mine arrives! ;-)
awesome. thanks bub
Hello! Thank you so much for the video. I just wait for the remote and mini drone E010. Tell me please if you encountered the HDR / C (D2) or (LF606) drone "Here is a link to the image of the drone" - (without a camera), can I connect it to this remote control RADIOMASTER TX16S by multiprotokol? If possible, how to do it? The seller says nothing about this. Thank you.
Got the same radio, and 2 fq777 exact same models here. Unfortunately i cant get them to bind. I suspect two different protocols are used?!? Havent figured out what im doing wrong or what alternative protocol to use. But paired with all my flysky models so far, so love the radio. Just have to fugure out those weird fq777-124's I have here.
Protocol 23 -FQ777 for model FQ777-124 (with SV7241A)
Protocol 26 -Hontai Several sub-protocols including Sub - 3 for FQ777-951-3
Might be other to try i the newest list. It can also be a problem caused by needing to tune the Transmitter out put frequency to suit the out-of-tolerance components used in some cheapies on some protocols. Read the full details in Pascal Langer's github list and keep up to date with developements on the RC Groups Forums DIY-Multiprotocol-TX-Module
Hi, I am new to Open TX. Having mostly Flysky receivers and few XM+. Now I just bought a Radiomaster TX16S. Could you let me know if you have any video to bind the TX16S with a Fs-ia6b on I-Bus? I wasn't able to get Aileron and Elevator working after binding. Even the Rudder is jerky. I have no issue though when binding with a Mini-Ibus 8/18CH AFHDS 2A. Thanks a bunch!
Great
Thank you
Is there a way to determine the receiver protocol to bind to cheap Amazon drones other than trying every combo? Mine isn't conveniently on the outside of the box.
@ 5:32 "what channel is it on?" So is this asking where I installed the rx/tx to work? Im all set up and working but this was not clear to me. Thanks!
Will it bind to Hubsan?
How do you know what stick is what channel? Or is there something like a test option in the tx to test it out
That’s crazy!
THANKS - May I ask, can this bind to Spektrum products with DSMX and DSM2 ?
In otherwords, will it fly all my Spektrum equipped planes with SAFE and all that jazz?
Thank you
Hey bud. Yes, this radio will bind to any Spectrum protocol. Channel mapping is the tricky part though. In my opinion, open tx (this radio’s os) is not intuitive at all.
Maybe I should do another video on channel mapping. Not sure what vids are out there on it.
Nice video! Quick question? My Left stick (Mode 2) is off center to the right. Not by much, but I can see it for sure. This was not an issue at all since calibrating worked great, however, after using the radio with a Flight Sim, the Sim told me that Channel 4 is off center??? Is there a way to center the stick using some "Gimbal Adjustments" in the inside??? Thanks.
F C I hope you found your answer. I haven’t run into that problem. I wish I could help.
@@buudy22 Hi. The seller is telling me that they are talking to the factory and they say this is normal. Yeah right. Anyhow. I contacted Radiomaster directly and they are going to send me new gimbals. : ). Thanks.
I did receive my TX16S and I came back to this video to see if your setup would help me to bind my Cheerson CX-10 micro quad to my new radio. So far, no luck. It is asking me about protocols in the model setup but after I select MULTI and CX-10, the other protocols do not seem to work and I tried them all. Where can I find a list of compatible brands and models so that I know which one to use?
graywoulf When you try to bind do the flashing lights on the quad change at all? That will be the indication that you found the right protocol. If the lights turn solid it has bound. Just cycle the throttle. That arms the quad. For those that thought the throttle arming process was programmed in the radio...it’s not. It’s programmed in the quad so even with the tx16, you will have to cycle the throttle to arm.
If you can’t get the lights to change it’s probably a cloned Cx-10. I have had several clones that I can find the protocol for in the radio. Same with Syma. There are generic Syma cx5’s for sale on eBay that will not bind either.
Interesting that there are only two models available (at least so far)-glider and airplane. No mention of quads. Since this is open TX I wonder if there will be updates that will make a generic drone setup available?
That is just the setup wizard, you can exit the setup wizard and manually configure the model like normal.
Hi, I am using deviation on devo7e at the moment, do you think I should upgrade to Opentx on T12 pro or TX16S, which will be a good value for money tx to upgrade to if I do, i do not have extremely big hands and am not using the pinching method to control the tx, thanks
Nice and great advice :)
However, unfortunately; I can't make mine work with my FQ777-FQ03 and CX-10 green .....
Question: I just want to make sure, this transmitter can directly be linked to the receiver of spektrum, futaba,frsky, flysky and so on ? I mean, without any whatever addon devices, just this transmitter. thanks.
That is correct. It has a built in module that can switch between all these protocols.
Could you connect to most toy drones? E.g eachine e013 ? Thanks
Will it fly my Syma X 8 series birds and Bayang Toys X 21 or JJRC modules??
Tried binding micro scisky , did everything DSM and lights go solid but still no power,
Hey, how do you know what protocol these toy drones use ? btw really nice video i love this radio
There are several really technical threads around the internet as these protocols are being hacked and shared but I just use trial and error. Lol. The Cheerson cx10 works great and I have found a couple others that work too.
Good luck and thanks!
@@buudy22 Thank you :D
It still boggles my mind how are they able to do all this for so cheap.
its insane
This hobby is insane
yeah for real xD
Its actually pretty easy to make these cheap... They didn't design the software open tx... So no R n d or budget to design software... The 4 in one module was built by some other tech company in china hence why its popping up in multiple versions of radios now...
This means no design for an rf module or receivers to be compatible with it..
Literally all they had to do was make a circuit board that would house all these modules and make a plastic case to hold everything in... I wouldn't be surprised if a finished radio actually cost about 35 quid to make...
Also I forgot to add in the first post there... the cost of components like the switches screen ect become remarkably cheap when you buy in industrial bulk... 1 switch might cost 70pence but 6000 of them would probably be less than half that...
I have the JY018 Pocket Drone. Does someone know what type of reciver i have to bind?
PLEEEEEEASSSE
Hello bro, I want to buy a control that is not so good or that bad but I don't know whether to buy this control or buy the spectrum dx6 since I am an intermediary to fly I am not that good yet I have the flysky but it is not so good I am already breaking 2 planes With that control and I want a control that has better stability and that not everything is manual that has beginner mode, intermediate mode and expert mode already programmed, I don't know which one do you recommend the especktrum dx6 or this tx16s
Hey Josue! This is an excellent radio. Ive never had problems with it. This will do Spektrum and many other brands. However, Spektrum will give you a little more distance on your range (not sure that really matters unless you are doing long range FPV). For an intermediate, Spektrum will be slight easier to understand.
That said, this radio is much more capable of growing with. This has replaced my Dx6i.
Features like stabilization are actually in the model and not radio. You would need something like flitetest's FT Aura. It can be found on here on CZcams.
Any chance you can help me out ? Can I do this with a dromida ominus
Could I do this with my dromida ominus?
What kind of Battery ? I just bought one
Thank you. Why did you not need Betaflight for anything. ???
Hey bud. Beta flight is used for setting up aircraft with programmable flight controllers. These little “toy” quads are not programmable. They won’t hook up to beta flight so the only programming you can do is on the radio side. I noticed you also asked about the bugs. This radio does have some models from bugs programmed in but if you are new to all this stuff it might be frustrating and difficult to figure out. I wish I could make a long series of videos helping people breaking in to the hobby but sadly I don’t have the resources to purchase all the equipment to make it happen. The channels that are given products and resources for free and make money through CZcams views have to spend all there time just reviewing products to keep getting high view counts and free stuff. You should get on the forums. That’s where the real help is. Not CZcams.
Can this open TX bind Android App control drone ? Like zerotach Dobby or winsland S6 drone , JJRC ? If not so please feedback to company add Android App in TX that's will be completely open TX
Can it bind to radio link receivers?
18650 batteries, but most people know what you meant, can’t wait till mine finally ships.
Thanks bud! Caught that in post but let it slide. ;)
Me neither man couple of weeks for me and then im ready to fly!!
Ok so I bought a emax hawk sport with this radio all set up already. I have no idea what does what not marked like it was supposed to be and haven't flown. Had for a year now just sitting. 😢
Yeah the drone community will have to make it a little more user friendly if they want to get anymore support and people getting involved.
Can ot connect to fimi x8?
Hi, I am having trouble with the plain setup wizard. It dose not look right, I am only able to select glider mode. Please help
Is the screen even showing airplane as an option? Does it only show glider and nothing else?
Nice as this radio undoubtedly is, I am sure I read somewhere that the RF output power is slightly down on what a proprietry radio puts out, and that puts me off from considering it for a large outdoor model. Does anyone know if this is true?
Joshua Bardwell did a really good video on the range of the radio master and jumper and the results are very interesting. Just search “Joshua Bardwell tx16s range test. It was quite convincing for me.
@@buudy22 The problem is that I am in the UK, and I believe Joshua is in the States. The legal limit for radio output power in the UK is half of that in the US, so could make a significant difference.
I live in the wilderness . No internet. Do you have to be online to be setting it up ! dandahermit
How do you do a drone without alerions and all that stuff why no quad setup?
As of the making of this video, OPEN TX setup wizard which is the the software this radio runs on doesn’t offer quad setup. Only plane. Understand that is just for the setup wizard. You can skip all that if you want and set up everything in the model settings including swashplates for helis, differential thrust, etc. this is the most versatile radio I have ever played with. That’s me coming from a spektrum background.
Will it bind with the cheerson x10?
Drew Graham It depends on the Cx-10. I have gotten one to bind to it but another didn’t. I think there are a lot of fake cheerson Cx-10’s out there.
Thank you for the clear instructions, but I'm guessing either ur child or cat don't agree with you totally lol. Thank you for video, I'm only starting to learn to build drones, and it's only fair I start with simulator and getting to know my RC. Lots of love
Its cool but have you figured out how to change the rates or do flips with it like you can do with the stock transmitter
Not yet. I’ve played around and gotten a couple quads to do the dual rates but I haven’t figured out flips on any of them yet. My guess is they are deep in the channel mapping (not on channel 5 or 6). Either way, if you felt the difference you probably wouldn’t care about the flips. :)
This thing has 7,000 buttons and knobs on it. I’m lost as fuck. This may be over my head.
It doesn’t work w Fraky tho :(
ZOOM IN on your screen would make it soooo much easier to see what you're doing. Most of us here looking at how to are noobs
Can it bind to the eachine e010?
nal0s0ljah I tried but could not find a good protocol for it. Looking online seemed like eachine used some odd protocol that the community never hacked.
@@buudy22 thank you for the reply!
@@buudy22 i got my radio today and got it to bind with the e010. I used the MJXq E010 mode and set the receiver No. to anything besides 0 currently have it on 8. And changed rf Frequency fine tune to anything but 0 also. But am having a problem when I push full stick forward it goes backwards...I have to push reverse to go forward...is there something I need to change in the settings to flip this?
Thanks
nal0s0ljah way to go bud!!!!!! Seriously. Nice work. It’s so much fun flying those little cheap quads with such a great feeling radio.
So it works by changing frequency tune to 1. And to fix the pitch problem go to mixers and change Ele weight to -100%
how much flying range of this transmitter?
Depends on receiver. But well beyond line of sight.
Cheerson cx10 wont bind with mine :-(
C Kauffman Hey bud...did you see there are sub protocols listed to the right of cx10 you can try? I just got burned by a clone syma x5c off eBay thinking it would bind up and it didn’t. Who would have guessed...Chinese clones of Chinese cheap products!
@@buudy22 yeah i tried them all with no joy
ive tried em all now with nothing working.... oh well
C Kauffman did you get it off amazon?
@@drewbooFPV Yes ASIn-B00M6HP1HM
Do i need to remove the 2s battery after every use or is it ok to leave in transmitter?
