When you see guys selling their Sanwa's and Ko Propo's for the Noble, you know it's got to be good.
Used mine for the first time yesterday at the local on road track.
Amazing
Thank you so much this really helped me. Im getting back into RC racing after a 20 year hiatus bought this remote on a recommendation from my local RC store and this video really helped me knock off a lot of rust.... Thanks again!
Hello Moto! Nice thorough walkthrough, seems like a nice radio. The touchscreen is pretty awesome!
I’m left handed and got this last year. Made a huge improvement for me. Absolutely love it.
Love this radio! Been eyeing it for months before I finally bought one. Seems very fast on the track! No noticeable delay to me.
I got mine just yesterday for 195 with receivers. And shipped to my door in 4 days. Phenomenal. Gonna watch this before I set it all up
Where did you buy it from?
Yeah where did you buy it from I don't believe you I have looked everywhere and if you live in the U.S like me it is 249 or more unless you buy it from Banggood for 199.00
@@jgbedford hobby mate hobby.
@john smith I live in MA. Hobby maye hobby. It was 195 shipped. Noble NB4 with 2 receivers. No reason to lie man.
Professional Equipment at affordable price. Love it.
I got one of these radios, beautiful. I downloaded the instructions from the internet.
it's my FAVORITE surface TX !!!!! I freeking LOVE this thing
And I love it even more for ease and speed on vrc pro.
Got mine today because of your review 👍
I love my NB4!
Awesome remote,great review
Awesome radio my friend, great price as well!🖐️🤠
Great review I really like this radio myself 👍👌👌
I’ve been using the NB4 for racing for last 6 months and I’m a big fan, will be very interested in the latency tests back to back with your other radios. Thanks
Latency test video is online now. 👍
I love my Noble, it's such a great quality radio, it feels great to use.
The USB controller feature that you mention however isn't unique to this radio, the Flysky GT3C hade it and my Frsky Taranis have it
😎 I just got mine today didn't even know about VRC racing pro 👍 I guess I'll see you guys there 😁
I’m gonna have mine this week 🤩
Its really help, thank u
The Noble Radio is the best radio I own. It is very easy to program and also can be programmed to a 8 channel radio with a down load from Flysky.
I ended up snapping my wheel off after couple years and couldn’t find any parts I glued and holding good but liked so well I ordered a back up
Can't wait to see your latency test! I love mine and I doubt you will be disappointed 😉
I started working on that, and got some high speed footage but then I learned more about settings on the radios to lower their latency. Check out the full RC TECH forum on it a latency video is on page 1. www.rctech.net/forum/showpost.php?p=15485345&postcount=148
Hi nice transmitter
Finally you got this. This radio is awesome!
Now you got this Sanwa and Futaba will will cheap compared to this :)
It is fast too
I just got one of these a few days ago it was £120 delivered in the uk with 2 receivers 👍🏻
That’s a good deal! Old stock price drop? The Noble NB4+ officially comes out Feb 22 2024. It’s minor changes/improvements.
@@netcruzer probs yes mate.
Its the best thing hobby king has and they can't keep it on the shelf
Great video! Do you know if there is a way to turn up and down the break % Like you can on a programmable ESC?
Hopefully the wiring and/or contacts in the wheel swivel point is robust and will not short, break or wear out if moved around a lot for comfort adjustments...or loosen over time from vibration or use.
Nice radio, hope it works well for you. Have you gotten into your t6.2 yet. Got mine finally last week and have it all assembled. For me was a great build. Can't wait to see how your build went.
Yes I have the T6.2 kit, but have not started it yet. Maybe this weekend I will.
Great Video . Question? What is the voltage rating on the receiver?
btw, it can be used with VRC Pro when connected via USB!
The battery brick comes off because it's meant to used as a power brick for USB charging as well as convenience where you can charge the brick while racing with the remote.
Wow what a review , radio looks killer , my question is , I'm into crawling and looking for a radio that can do 4 wheel steer with full independent from front and back ,,I see it has the basic 4 functions to crawl with , I want full control over the steering on the rear axel
I’ve been running a lot pro po exrr. I just picked up a nb4 kinda thinking I’m going to sell the ko. I’m really liking the nb4.
I'm looking at radios to use on my rtrs super nice radio, I'm getting the Radiolink RC6GS It's looks good and has crazy range something like 1900 ft. And telemetry features plus a gyro too.
I also have that radio to test and review. I will be showing that on video soon, but initial impression is the Radiolink RC6GS was noticeably built to a budget to keep the price low.. the trigger and wheel feel is not race quality. For bashing and crawling it's a good choice.. and it does have a long signal range and gyro. Good for the price, but not a racing radio.
I'm new to this. What's the F B and R L on the left and bottom of the home screen? Is that some sort of tiltometer?
One year on I think from your videos you’re still using the Noble for racing. I guess that means you haven’t found ‘dead spot’ issues that Razor RC found. Is it also still your preferred radio over. Futaba or Sanwa at their £250 mid range handsets?
I found the mixes where great to mix a button with the throttle. hold down the button and max out the throttle and you go from 0 to 100% throttle much quicker than your finger cna, i know with ko-popro this is similar to thier launch feature but found this handy to also give you a strong and sudden break option which can be useful for scale drifting
That's a very cool use case, thanks for sharing!
Hobbyking sells this for 180 USD with 2 of the smaller recievers and it took only 4 days to ship
That sounds like a great option for USA buyers!
We have to buy it from China directly on Bangood.com or similar Websites.. Shipping needs much longer, but seems to be worth to wait!
Any info of launch control options or if this controller offers it
Good transceiver for the price, feels very premium. How do you like the range and responsiveness?
Pretty cool radio John! Seems like it has a nice build quality and has all of the features of my Futaba 4PLS which is pretty cool to see! I personally don't think radio latency is all that huge for racing unless doing something long range. I'm still pretty curious to see how it will do range wise, especially with the fat reciver so I'm definitely exited for the follow-up video's on this thing! 👍
Check out the RC TECH forum on it, tons of info on latency and range performance. I didn’t see this before buying it or recording the video. I need to change to 1 way to get it into fastest response. www.rctech.net/forum/radio-electronics/1042635-flysky-noble-nb4.html
@@netcruzer is there any chance you can tell me what the latency is on the radiolink rc4gs v3? Or the rc6gs v3?
wow, this thing looks impressive and the embedded features are great. if it is really close to sanwa or futaba in terms of response time..... well that would almost be too good to be true ^^.
Response time is very close in my initial testing, I need to do more. But check out the RC TECH forum a lot of people have already checked latency and range - www.rctech.net/forum/radio-electronics/1042635-flysky-noble-nb4.html
One important note for those using this for crawlers and anything else that needs more channels. This is actually up to an 8 channel radio. I have had mine for for nearly a year now and find little reason to switch to any other radio.
How did you figure out how to get more channels ? I need quite a few channels for my drift car and I want buy the noble its in my price range
Researching a good radio for my son for this summer....he's getting to the point to be competitive and our radios are old entry level stuff...
Looking at MT-44/MT-5, Noble, and DX5C/DX5Pro
Thanks for the videos, any input would be most welcomed. Cheers
When the steering wheel position is set, can it be locked in to place?
Haven’t found flysky in any local hobby shops in mi only online lol
How about a review on this radio a year later. What do you guys think of it compared to other brand’s?
Had mine for five races and it feels better than my sanwa of the same price. I work with heavy objects, so a heavy controller fits me, but might not be good for smaller people.
Yes, It’s well balanced with the battery base, feels very similar in weight to my MT4. The newer Sanwa MT44 is very light. That’s the lightest racing radio I’m aware of if somebody wants smaller and lighter.
I am just getting into drifting. My question is how many channels do I need for a drift car ? I have all the bells and whistles just no radio yet. I was looking I to the flysky noble but I wasn't sure if it had enough channels for me.
I have an olded graupner radio that is really fast. But i would love to have usb for vrc and mini-z compatibility built in. I really want to build a mini-z track in the basement but hate using different transmiters.
Research the Mini-Z (EVO) mode a bit, you MIGHT need to buy receivers for the cars, I'm not sure.
I see that this is advertised as a USB PC gaming controller as well. Do you have any idea if it works with the XBox360?
The latency is under 3ms that’s with the standard receiver.. the small receiver is a little slower
I'm a process to order one, I currently run a m12 sanwa. How is your experience with this radio, is it as fast or responsive as your sanwa? Thanks
Does the mini receiver have a good range? I want to get this radio
I believe the latency is around 3ms?! I am going to get me one!!!
Fine!!!!! Ill get it... hahaha it's just too good for the price.
I've got a DB Pro and was wondering if you can you get any telemetry data from the Spektrum ESC?
No, their smart telemetry requires spectrum to see. You would get radio telemetry but not the ESC and motor. That info isn’t all that useful in my experience.
Does it come with a built-in gyro?
Getting the grip off has always been a mystery to me
Does this radio have alerts to let you know when you're battery is getting low on the RC? Would be great to know 👍 great video too
There is an alert when the receiver signal is lost or disconnected, and there is a battery meter for both Tx and Rx, but it doesn’t know how many volts you are running to tell when battery is low. But you might be able to configure something. A LVC on your ESC is typically how I determine low voltage when running.
@@netcruzer this radio has a boat feature too so I don't want my boat to run out off power before I get it to shore 😫 and even some of the spectrum radios have that feature. So any help would be greatly appreciated
is the range same with fgr4 wiyh antena??
Is there a menu option for connecting to VRC PRO. I've seen a video where usb shows as an option under system, but not on my version
No settings needed for USB just plug it in
💯🔥
Seems easier to get through menus than my Sansa m12rs
Agreed. Sanwa interface is not great, even on the M17, but I like Sanwa for the quality and response.
I just got the NB4 and had a question about setting it up on multiple cars...
Once you use the bind plug and bind it to more than one model, you shouldn't have to use the bind plug every time you switch models, right? I was under the impression that I could just power off the car that I'm bound to, switch models in the settings, power on the second car, and it would automatically use the bind memory to sync with the second car without using the bind plug procedure again. Mine doesn't seem to be able to do this and requires me to use the plug every time I switch cars.
Did you ever determine if it has a bind memory for multiple cars? What your describing seems extremely inconvenient and an oversight in design.
Hi
Do you think this Transmitter is good for 2wd buggy racing? What's your oppinion? Compared to e.g. Sanwa MTS
Yes it will be great for that, compared to an MTS the build quality of the Noble is better, more features. The Sanwa uses a slightly faster protocol as I've demonstrated but it's such a minor difference you likely will not notice. The MTS was a 'budget build' MT4-S with some features removed. If buying Sanwa I'd choose MT44 or M12RS over an MT-S because the MT44/M12 series is twice as fast (aprox 2ms documented latency)
@@netcruzer I very much like the idea to utilize the Noble for my Team Associated B6.2, my Arrma Granite Basher and my Scale Crawler (6ch)... This radio seems to be a good choice!
Brgds from Germany
I'm "new" to rc cars after a 30 plus year layoff. Futaba Magnum and Kyosho Pulsar were king when I raced and frequency crystals ruled the air waves. If I'm right...I can use this single controller for as many cars as I build as long as I have a receiver for the car? Is that difficult or easy? When I switch from one car to the other...do I just select which receiver I'm wanting to use from the screen?
Correct on both questions. Or do what I often do when I can’t afford a receiver per vehicle is to make new vehicle setups on the model setting screen and just bind each model to the same receiver. Swap the receiver from one vehicle to the next and just select whichever model you’re using on the transmitter. But even easier is to do as you suggest and have a receiver per vehicle and you don’t need to swap them out.
I've thought about this radio and thought it probably dont stack up well against sanwa or futaba?I'll be watching to see how it goes for you!
So far it seems on par and in some ways superior to mid-range Sanwa and Futaba racing radios! RF protocol latency tests will be coming next comparing Sanwa vs Noble vs Traxxas to show the difference in response times.
@@netcruzer cool man looking forward to it!
Its the price point that makes this an amazing radio
My buddy bought one. It is a quality radio, we both didn’t like the ergonomic feel of the radio. Just couldn’t get the right feel with it. This is why I bought a Futaba. That’s just my opinion though, may fit others hand much better.
@@netcruzer please include if you can the trusty spektrum dx5c too😎😉
Got mine from Hobbyking, £141 GBP with free shipping to the UK.
Nothing comes close for the price.
Which is better for Touring & Drift?
Flysky Noble vs Sanwa MT44 vs Futaba 4PM?
Personally I’d choose Sanwa MT44 for that use. It’s fastest protocol of them all, very nice lightweight super fast radio.
Do u experience deadband? razorrc claim his to have deadband but I haven’t seen any other reviewers mention it
I’ve not noticed any excessive deadband on mine
Hello, I am interested in what your opinion is of this radio after a year of ownership, specifically outdoor/ off-road buggy racing. I’m looking to try racing 2wd buggies this and would like a better radio than my spectrum dx5 rugged. Thanks
That’s exactly what I’ve been using it for the most. I have over 2 years use on mine now and it’s great. Yes, I think it’s much better than a DX5.
@@netcruzer thank you!
Are u still using this to race?
I don't no if u mentioned that some replacement recievers that they say r compatible need to be updated before they can be used with the nb4. But they can be used. I ordered a reciever on ebay n almost argued with the seller telling him he sold me a bum reciever till I read something about updating the reciever
I didn't say it but yes, there is a mention in the software that if you update the firmware on the transmitter you might need to update firmware on the receivers before they can be used. I think that was more of an earlier problem though, if you get a new FGr4S v2 it might work out of box. Was your receiver a v2?
come si carica la batteria
Waiting for the test on VRC Pro (using usb)!
It works great. I’ve been using it for over a week and the feel and response is superb, but you are tethered with a cable. I will mention it in my next VRC racing video but it won’t be a dedicated video about Noble on USB.
@@netcruzer very good!
Does the bigger rx fit in a tekno sct RX box?
It should but have not confirmed yet. I will be doing that though.
I’ve had people tell me some tracks won’t let you use these due to interference or dirty signal. Any truth to that? Seems like an awesome transmitter.
Interesting.. I'll find out later I suppose. I've not heard of that issue. Futaba has a auto-bind issue that crops up time to time, and Spektrum DSMR is slowest 'pro protocol', Sanwa FH4T I've never had a glitch with and is the fastest I've ever used. FlySky protocol I'll need more track testing time, we are still in lockdown no opportunity to do it yet.
Kennith Goward This was the case with some of the older or cheaper fly sky radios.
Where can I get replacement batteries for the transmitter? Do you know the part number?
I don’t know. Try to contact flusky for parts. Or open it up carefully to find and replace the cell.
can this be used one handed, steering trhe wheel with the thumb ?
Not really, it doesn’t rotate back at an angle that makes that comfortable.
@@netcruzer thanx man!
Wish I saw this before I bought the top spektrum radio. I like it but the battery life sucks
Did you get the Spektrum radio that runs Android? That’s very cool but wish they had waited to make it now, it would have been a way faster processor.
What is ab antenna whip?
That's what we call the antenna wire around here.. or maybe it's just an old man term now. 90's FM racing radio term.. from way before 2.4ghz digital when the antenna stuck up over a foot out of the car. LOL
Price price price. For 700$ CND my 4px leaves me disappointed when comparing it to this 240$cnd radio.
If I dropped my 4px and had 700$ available I'd buy the noble instead and buy another buggy lol
Hate to break it to you, but this isn't the top of the line radio from flysky....they also make a noble pro that is an 18ch.
When this video was made, the pro didn’t exist. Most of the pro design is an evolution from NB4. NB4 remains a better value for most people IMO.
I mean for 200 bucks when a futaba is going for 700 it's insane to buy anything else unless your trying to be a professional racer
