- The Dumbo R/C x6 controller with the x6fg gyro reciever, is a great set up for my brushless 1/8 dhk hobby zombie 8e.
Super easy to install and the x6fg built in gyro system worked great. I recommend buying one, and there very inexpensive too.

Stick around for the bashing at the end of the video😄👍 Be safe and God bless.
You should have disconnected one one of the motor wires the gyro should be down with double-sided tape or glue
It’s all glued down bro,
THANKYOU! Ive had this setup for about a year and just now found out how to make gyro work!
That’s awesome, I’m glad I could help. I see a lot of videos on this dumbo rc and no how to set it up videos. So I figured I should make one, thanks for watching.
Make sure it’s not backwards mine was, it’s supposed to make the wheels turn the opposite direction your chassis is facing( to reverse it press the receiver button twice until it does the red and green thing)
Oh man! I've got 1 coming very soon! Great video too!
Thank you, have fun 😊👍
Great presentation and test drive My friend Donnie very powerful and fast!!!
Thanks so much brother 🙏😍
Good stuff just received mine looking forward to using it.
Cheers 🍻
Thank you , it works great. Cheers 🍻
Good to see the zombie running again, and yeah the dumbo rc tx and RX have awesome range bro. You need a wheelie bar now Donnie 😂👍🍻
Thanks brother I know some of your trucks came with that controller, it’s well worth the 30 bucks.
Fantastic Review and Test Run, I've always liked the Zombie, great Video and Info again Tony 👍 keep safe and well 👍🇬🇧😍🇺🇸👍
Thanks so much Tony, sorry for the late reply.
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC no worries bro, keep safe and well 👍😍👍😎👍
I've got an old '90s Radio Shack car that I'm upgrading from toy grade to hobby grade and I was looking at this controller. Wasn't sure what the gyro part of it was but thank you for demoing it. It's essentially the same as the Traxxas TSM
Thanks for watching and sounds like fun with the vintage Rc rebuild. Cheers
Nice work on the truck brother! Stay safe out there
Thanks brother, I’m going Stir crazy here at home 😂
I love the Dumbo TX/RX combo. I now have it installed on 6 different vehicles, with 3 spare receivers for future upgrades! Can't beat it for the price, it's range, features and the gyro function. With my r/c's, I found it works best to turn the gyro all the way down for my cars that have perfect steering already. Otherwise, the gyro tries to "over correct" your inputs and makes the car flip... in other words, if your car runs straight already and doesn't need gyro, then turn it off. The gyro's job is to keep the car running straight, not (like you said) to correct your turns! (gyro on, when you make sharp turns, the car will flip because the gyro is trying to make it go straight!) Good job, thanks for sharing... 💥💥POW!!! -djsoulforce!!!
Thanks DJ, sorry for the late reply. I was down for the count yesterday with my back. This zombie I run it close to 50% and it’s works great. I just wanted to show everyone what happens at different settings.
I disagree DJ, the gyros purpose is to also help keep a truck stable in turns not just in a straight line! A simple google search explains the purpose of what a Gyro built into a receiver is for. I have had one in my brushless trucks for a while that have good steering already and it still helps keep the truck from peeling out in turns. (A gyro allows you to drive the RC car toward a given direction and take precise turns at high speed. It makes your car more manageable, more controllable and more stable.) Example taken from simple search and explanation on Google
Your Absolutely right bro, well explained.
I just put this combo on my Typhon v4 6s. I can't find any videos on how to set the steering end points. How did you do it? Just the dials on the Rx?
Yes it’s just the deal on top is the gyro if you have the gyro receiver version . I show ya in the video. The another adjustments for steering trim and throttle trim are under the lid of the controller. I have my steering set up on channel 1 and my throttle set up on channel 2. So under that lid is where the adjustments for channel 1 and channel 2 are.
U sound Nice... Appreciate people like you today in this world... Subbed
Thanks so much Sarge, I do appreciate it. Have a great weekend my friend and be safe out there.
Great review on the TX/ RX... I am looking into getting a different RX/TX setup for my Arrma RC's that came with the STX2, so it was great timing. Seen these pop up on some of the RC forums with good reviews...
That’s great, you will not be disappointed for sure. Such a great RX & TX combo. The gyro works great as well, I had a friend go more then 500 meters with no problems. So I have ordered 2 more x6fg RX’s and will be putting them in a few more trucks. There so cheap in price. Well thanks so much for watching and enjoy yours when you get it. Cheers 🍻
great install and great video
Thank you Duke so much my friend, hopefully see you on Joe’s live stream tonight I’ll be on there hosting with them. OMGRC
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC cool i will be there brother
Thanks for the video. Had to set my gyro up today.
Cheers
Thanks for watching, have a great weekend.
some great work there mate that zombie is a big machine
*👍Au👍thumbs up for you plus a full view too*
Cheers Billy and thanks so much, be safe my friend
Great review Donnie, The remote is great price but the RC truck OUCH it's up there in price. Love the looks of it and how it drive. 👍👍👍👍👍
Yeah for sure Ray on the zombie price now, it has gone up. Thanks brother so much and I hope you join in on the OMGRC lifestream tonight, I’ll be on there with Joe.
cant wait to get mine!!!!
Thanks Edwin for watching, I think you will be happy with it.
Great video!
Thanks so much for watching, it’s a great controller for 30 bucks.
BIG DRONE FLYER77 R/C sure looks like it! We make RC car videos on our CZcams channel, if you have a second to check out our channel that would be really awesome!
Nice upgrade this make a big difference 👍
Thank you so much for watching, I really appreciate all the support my friend. Cheers and stay safe
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC then your going to be really happy that I have added them to 2 of my playlist :D have a good eastern
Thank you 🙏😍
That's a sweet RC
Thanks so much for stopping by, I appreciate it.
Nice truck Donnie, get ready for some bashing, you and yours stay safe bro.
Thanks Paul, it was nice getting the zombie back and running now. You be safe as well my friend
Way to go Donnie. Been doing some electrical repairs on broken equipment. I finally found a replacement controller for my scooter after being Grounded since October.
I know what you mean about Lighting so I put together a light bar with 4 LED bulbs all soldered together. Now, gotta get the gumption to actually do the Work. (Sigh)
Cheers, BDF77..🚁🚚
Thanks brother for watching. You could do the work I have faith in you. Be safe brother and talk to you soon.
How do I have to position the receiver so that the gyro works? Or can you set it up somehow so that the receiver knows how it was positioned in the car.
Not sure if anyone said it yet but you can hook 10 receivers or something to that Dumbo I have 2 on my dumbo, my Xmaxx & my arrma Typhon... its a good idea to keep the servos and motor all going in same direction or it could get interesting on ya
That 2s battery is a beast!
I was running 4s in the video, it definitely wakes it up a bit. Thanks for watching
thanks for a good revo
Thanks so much for stopping by
Nice big Drone
Thank you so much for swinging by in watching. Cheers and stay safe my friend
Wow that RC truck screams Speed Demon that thing is very fast bro that's really awesome that is badass I like it I really do that's a big one. 1/8 scale I like it bro that was fantastic video I enjoyed it and I thank you for sharing take care be safe and I'll see you soon my friend God bless and Happy Racing....👍😷
This is a fun truck but the screws all Vibrate out and you have to add Loctite to him. That 4s battery makes it scream
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC that definitely is a nice RC I can't believe the boats always vibrate loose put some turn tight on them and be fine I like it take care bro be safe and I'll see you soon God bless and happy flying bro
God bless you to brother
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC 👍😀
I just bought one of these transmitters with Gyro to and its not the best but it does the job great
Awesome, the gyro helps Certain RC cars and trucks. Thanks for watching and Happy Holidays to you.
Like, amaizing car and video
Thank you so much 🙏
Does it matter which way you place the receiver (as in if the antenna on it faces back or front) for the gyro to operate properly or it can be stuck on the car any direction?
You can stick it where you want 👍
Hi do u know how to set the failsafe for this transmitter?
What fail safe?
Hi Big Drone.
Where did you connect battery to the receiver?
For this I just connected steering servo to channel 1 and the throttle from esc was connected to channel 2.
VERY COOL INTRO
Thank you 🙏
Do you need the transmitter or can you use a different one with the gyro
Transmitter and receiver combo, they go together.
I am sort of new at this... please help...I have an e revo 2.0(2019) Could I use this Dumbo receiver in that truck....it has two steering servos.....the receiver would need two channel one's correct??
You can use other receivers but the TQ Traxxas uses is a great one that comes with the erevo 2.0. I’m leaving mine in the Erevo .
my revo 2.0 has two steering servos so i would need two channel one ports right???
Yes you would need two channels in your receiver. Sorry for the late reply I’ve been fighting for my life the last six months and I’m back in the hospital. So I apologize for neglecting my channel to all everyone’s questions. Thanks for watching
How comfortable is it? I haven’t found one more comfortable than the Dx3c! I love it. I just got a Flysky gt5 and I don’t like it
I use it and my Radio Link RC6GS for all my pro RC’s.
What is the port assignment for the 6ch with gyro? Is there a bind slot? I’m looking for a slot where I can put in a GlitchBuster.
Mike Cabardo the glitch buster should be able to connect in any channel of the receiver. So you can use the 3rd channel spot if you wanted, it’s up to you.
Just subscribed bro!. May i know if that transmitter works with my dhk maximus without replacing the stock servo? Will the gyro work?
Yes it will work with it no problem. Thanks so much for the support and really appreciate it.
No problem bro!. Thankyou 👍😊
Have this combo on my Proline pro Mt 4x4 love it.
It’s great for 30 bucks, I think I’m going to order another 2 or 3 more. Thanks so much for watching my friend
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC I got mine for $11.62 using points earned
Same here , I think it was 16 or so. I have so many Banggood points. Just wish they would let you buy something outright with points.
Is there any delay with throttle or steering ?
Do you need a bind plug to bind ?
No delay, You can see all that in the video. It’s a great controller for 30 bucks. No bind plug needed
Can I bind this receiver to any Dumbo rc radio??
Yes you can
Do you know what the max bec voltage this receiver supports?
I believe it’s 7.4v , thanks for watching.
Like everything about the receiver except the name 👍🏾😎👍🏾
Hi Herb I hope you’re feeling better brother and hope the families doing OK. Sometimes I wonder why companies use the names that they do 😂 Sometimes people don’t take the product seriously because of the names they use. I’ll take care of yourself brother and take care of your guys his health, always have you guys in my prayers.
I said the same thing in one of my recent videos. I thought it was a "dumb ass" name, but they work great! LoL!!! 🤣
I had the same hesitation problem too but all you have to do is reset it. Pull the steering towards you and press full throttle then turn the transmitter on. let go of the steerting wheel and the throttle and press channel 3. The light on top should start blinking. Now go full right then full left. then full forward then full backwards.Then press channel 3. Done
Thanks for watching, my receiver was bad. Thanks though for the info.
thanks mate, I'll try to reset it as when I barely press reverse, the car doesn't move at all (never happen when I press immediately, only when I press very slowly) and this is my second receiver / second esc so I hope it will be fine with a reset!
No worries, thanks 🙏
If you have the remote to close to the Esc it will make it do that intermittently work
Thanks Joey for watching, have a great weekend.
Can you use this controller on a nitro rc car ?
Yes, I’m going to use mine on a nitro I’m building.
Your gyro is doing opposite, you should reverse it..
How fast dose you rc car go up too mine is 60+ but I want to know your
Stock was 44 I think, I haven’t done a 4s speed run yet. I just been busy with a lot of rebuilds, so I need to get it back out for a run.
Thank you! I was able to trouble shoot my arrma granite after watching this!! THANK YOU!!!! 🥉🥉
That’s great news Billy, so glad this video helped. Let me know how you like this controller. I love it so far myself and just ordered another receiver for my Arrma Typhon 3s.
My came in plastic bag no box no paper work receiver was tied to remote by the antenna hope it works better than how it was packaged and sent to me
That’s crazy, well hope it works out. Thanks for watching, I would be upset as well.
Help no reverse, sometimes it will reverse slowly by itself. I have a stock v4 kraton
Hey Corey, thanks for watching. Your manual should have the instructions on how to calibrate the esc. Should be similar to a hobbywing esc I would think. I don’t have the kraton yet and only the typhon . If I get a chance I will try to have a look, just have a lot going on atm. Thanks again for stopping in and I wish I could be more of help. For basic hobbywing style and most esc’s. My Traxxas XMaxx 8s restore video, I show you how to calibrate the esc. Which the calibration sets the neutral,forward and reverse on the esc. Here is the video link. czcams.com/video/pHz7KEd6hNI/video.html
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC Thanks I figured it out that day. That manual wasn't the best Lol. But it's running like a champ!
Does x6fg receiver support any rc boat?
Just depends on what boat.
Really nice job Donnie, the truck seems to be performing pretty well. BTW, I heard from PayPal today and I will be getting my full refund back but unfortunately I have to pay for the return shipping. Banggood's service dept. is claiming that they never received the video I made and tried to send to them about 5 times so I am very disappointed with them.
That’s just messed up Gregory, they always try to get out of something. Sorry to see that happen, there is a way to get an extra 30 bucks back from PayPal for shipping fees. Soon as the package hits China then PayPal will give you the 30 bucks. Talk to them about that at PayPal. They have some program about shipping. I just forgot what it’s called you will have to ask them.
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC Although the shipping fee was more than $30.00 dollars, I will take what ever I can get. Thanks for the info Donnie.
Your welcome, yeah I know shipping is terrible to send back to China. But ya 30 bucks is better then nothing. I should of just bought it from ya.
How is the Dumbo esc holding up to the four cell? I just ordered mine. Was wondering if that esc could be used with a three cell.
Thanks for watching. So far it’s doing well, the esc is 100amp and has no problems running 4s. So the power supplied to the dumbo is only 5v just like the stock receiver.
BIG DRONE FLYER77 R/C awesome. Looks like a good build. Fast!!!! Lol
One last question. Do the “C” rating matter? Thanks
don't know if you have the answer but I have bought two different controllers in trying to utilize the third channel to manipulate my lights and neither one of them work? I even bought a different light kit and still will not function to turn on/off the lights? Do you have any magic in your bag to give advise? it's the little things that are a pain in my ASDFSDFSDF
You should be able to run the lights and blinkers with this controller. Just have to plug the power of the lights in receiver channels power your going to use. I haven’t had any problems with this dumbo rc yet, I bought another receiver and use the same controller for several of my trucks. So I’m not sure why your not getting the lights to come on. Maybe your esc is not putting out the voltage to the receiver. Did you test it on another rc if you have one?
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC yes I have another DumboRC controller with a receiver and it does the same thing???? I checked the voltage and it appears to be fine around 5.7 I believe?? oh well thanks for getting back to me....
Sorry just hard to see what’s going on without seeing it in person.
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC may do a private video and send you link so you can see... thanks for your time.
czcams.com/video/21Npz9Qm2Ho/video.html link to video
That things a screamer!
Thanks Gary, I love this big guy. Super fun, that dumbo rc is a nice controller and works awesome. I can set up blinkers on it and so much more.
can you pair a DumboRc x4 remote with the x6fg receiver(with gyro) ?
Good question, I believe so.
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC was thinking the same. although I would expect the x4 not to have a button for changing the gyro response. so I think somehow the default gyro setting will stay enabled?
It my use one of your empty channels for the gyro, either way you have to enable the gyro from the receiver it’s self. So if it was on a default gyro setting and it’s too much of the gyro. If there was no way to adjust it on your x4 controller, you can always just shut it off from the receiver. If you bought it to try it, so if that makes sense at all?
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC yep :D in case the car runs too good, you can turn the gyro off :P good to know. joke aside, thanks for the info!
always calibrate the esc to the controller first that's why you have that delay i believe
Bad esc, at that time it was going.
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC i had the same truck and thats what happened to mine too

Thank you my friend
Hi in my experience these gyro receivers work correctly when they are installed upside down. Counter intuitive I know but I found my information from another you tube. I installed my gyro upside and boom it works correctly at any percent. When I tried to run my car with the gyro face up it would do the opposite role of a gyro which caused a lot of crashes just like in this video.
This one Cannot be installed upside down because it’s built into the receiver. If was upside down I won’t be able to have the wires in there unless I cut a hole through the bottom of the chassis. Thanks so much for watching and be safe out there.
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC try to think outside the box in terms of mounting positions. In my time of ownership of these cars, where the manufacturer says to put things is often cheapest for them and not optimal for you. My gyro hands down just would not work the right way up. Perhaps that is why these handsets are flooded onto banggood and so cheap. I like mine due to the range and working gyro.
Perhaps you would consider doing a video the right way up and upside down and compare the observed and expected behaviour
@@adriancooke7310 all you have to do for the x6 receiver is press the button twice and it’ll reverse the gyro
@@BIGDRONEFLYER77RC press the receiver button twice (it’ll reverse it)

you no how to do a review no talk and saying nothing keep up the good work..
Thanks so much for stopping by
It is a very good car. I want to see when cars jump on high hills.

It's ok, in Chiang Mai, Thailand is the same. Please take care yourself and your family. I like your clip Because I know that There are many new interesting devices.
Thanks again so much
The Gyro should be flat on the chassis and the chassis should be level or sitting at ride height when activating it
Thanks I haven’t heard having to do that, but I appreciate the info. All the ones I run are working great, but I don’t use them much. Take care and thanks for watching. Cheers
Nice Ear Splitting Sub Bell😂

Lmao 🤣 I have the zombie too.. it’s a big disappointment wer as the gears are made of cheap monkey metal and ther constantly stripping and the axles constantly bend to cuz ther made of lead!! I wish I nvr bough it
I was very lucky that it was from one of my sponsors. Since I’ve been sick, I haven’t been on CZcams making videos. So while I was down trying to recover, the last few years I totally rebuilt my Xmaxx 8S I upgraded it. it’s just amazing. Super fun.. I will be making videos on it this summer. Also bought the Traxxas E Revo 2.0, bought all the upgrades as well. Take care and rebuild that zombie the way you want it. It will be a great runner then, just sad that you shouldn’t have to do that. What can you do, but make it haul some a$& with your own build.
Rubbish and time wasting.
