A Hacked Flysky GT3C...The Most Versatile Ground Radio Ever!

[@DaneKroczaleski66]

I've had my gt3b since they first came out without any problems just ordered a gt3c can't wait to see how it compares to my older gt3b as far as features

[@SnarkyRC]

This Tx is great even without the hack. Best bang for your buck. I had the gtb but, I didn't like the ergos. I got the limited edition titanium one.

[@jimbojones2457]

Thanks for the video mate. I just bought one because the 3b I bought kept losing signal on my 5T and the kill switch would kill the engine. After about 20 meters away the signal would be erratic. I’d back off the throttle and the car would keep going for half a second before it went into failsafe. I’m hoping this 3C will be better.

[@leonfernandi3870]

Was it better?

[@rybuds47]

Very cool

[@Woopass125]

Thanks for the video and links. Immediately bought one.

[@techsmechs4553]

Woopass125 I love mine! Hope you love yours!

[@Woopass125]

Been trying to find these for awhile , thanks again.

[@Woopass125]

By the way did you say this comes with a bearing mod done to it

[@techsmechs4553]

Woopass125 yeah I am pretty sure it has a bearing on the steering wheel. Gt3b you had to add a bearing. This one comes with it

[@RcRebelsOfRcs13]

I would be very interested in seeing a how to set up for the Summit.

[@techsmechs4553]

Wow sorry I missed this. Here ya go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4C4dppoeMulqqM

[@RBAERO]

Nice video. But this radios stop have a Really Big problem. The signal range is ridiculous small

[@Otiesh]

Nice review, I am planing to buy one. How stable is it in terms of range distance

[@emmanuelhud1]

Otiesh Francis not ver good when it comes to rang mabe like 150m out there is a delayed response. but. it's very stable other than that. if your on the fence weather to buy it. no doubt its worth the money. battery runs out quick tho. still 7 out of 10 i'd say

[@techsmechs4553]

It is long enough range for how I drive. I haven't noticed any delay either

[@zrca]

hi. great video. I did everything and I use some additional options with my 3ch receiver. I tried to bind the same 8ch receiver noted here and it shows like it's binded (led stops blinking when transmitter turned on holding bind button) but when switched on again with just power into it and transmitter ON, the light blinks very fast, faster then when in binding mode. Help!

[@90Christopher]

Does it has a kill switch on it

[@HR-in8yt]

Can this radio be used for RC 1/10 drifting? Is it any possibilities to change the frequency/band in case of someones radio overrides your own radio? Great video btw, precuating this so much. Greeting from Norway!

[@techsmechs4553]

Yep no reason why it wouldn't! I think the frequency selection works pretty good. It hops around the freq's I believe so that there is no interference. Many models can be ran at once

[@Jimreynoso]

I need help learning how to set it up for multiple cars. How do I set that up?

[@84mk84]

I will do a video on my channel subscribe I will post soon

[@bobbyshaw2822]

Thanks

[@bergcrawler1]

Do you need to open and modify radio to update firmware? Or just plug in to USB port?

[@techsmechs4553]

Open it up. See the links

[@bergcrawler1]

@@techsmechs4553 thanks got all information needed and parts on the way 👍

[@bobbyshaw2822]

I upgraded a radio shack bug with my GT3C and redcat motor and esc . but it goes in reverse. I even switched wires around. So can you set the GT3C to make it go forward?

[@techsmechs4553]

Yep. If you go to the Rev menu and select whatever channel your esc is on

[@TonysRcTechboom]

Thank you so much for sharing this video my friend, think I'll be getting one soon, fantastic video, liked and subbed you my friend well done 👍😁👍

[@techsmechs4553]

Thanks for watching!

[@jimmyboy2778]

Range?

[@dsdahustla]

With the hack are the endpoints raised like from 120 to 140?

[@techsmechs4553]

Dustin Sauls I think you can adjust that in one of the menus. Global menu perhaps

[@secretagb]

Why did you recommend the 3B for FPV?

[@techsmechs4553]

secretagb it uses around 12v for power. This will also run an external Jr module (see that video) such as a LRS for Fpv. The GT3C only runs off of a 1S lipo... Which does not have the power to run a Jr module

[@secretagb]

Ah ok just due to power supply. I thought maybe there was some other technical capability difference. Thanks!

[@techsmechs4553]

Nope. Just based on what batteries they use

[@MrJoris666]

Interesting! What's the range of this radio?

[@techsmechs4553]

At least as far as my stock Traxxas radio. The GT3B can support external modules so then the range will be as far as those modules.

[@MrJoris666]

Techs Mechs I didn't know about the modules. What other modules can it hold? Is it just plug and play?

[@techsmechs4553]

No, these radios have a PPM pin you can tap onto. Then find battery voltage (too low on the GT3C but the GT3B uses 12V...and then the PPM, 12v, and GND pins can plug into a JR module. It is not plug and play though. You have to solder pins on the inside

[@MrJoris666]

Techs Mechs I see, thank you!

[@connoringamells7534]

How's this transmitter and receiver with a brushless ESC?

[@techsmechs4553]

Connor Ingamells should work just fine!

[@connoringamells7534]

thank you for the reply, hope so because I've been having problems the transmitter and receiver i have apparently its not suited to the brush-less set up i just brought

[@TheWhiteAfghan]

Do you feel this radio with the hack is better than fs-it4s?

[@techsmechs4553]

I don't have one to directly compare, but I can't imagine something that the fs-it4 could do that a hacked Flysky GT3C couldn't do

[@TheWhiteAfghan]

Techs Mechs the display on the fsit4 is and latency is make me want it

[@techsmechs4553]

True that. The display on these radios is a weak point. Not too sure about latency though

[@TheWhiteAfghan]

Techs Mechs from what I been reading 20ms and fsit4 it 5ms

[@TheWhiteAfghan]

Techs Mechs is the setup user friendly when hacked?

[@blakelove7588]

So, they can do all this fancy stuff with the custom firmware BUT they cant change that GINORMOUS writing to a normal size and they cant have more than a 3 letter model name, wow

[@techsmechs4553]

Yes the screen is for sure the weakest point of the radio

[@XtopherMartin]

Can you add a gyro to this as well?

[@techsmechs4553]

I've never heard of anyone doing that

[@cameronmoore1491]

Can you do a tutorial on how to hack one?

[@techsmechs4553]

The videos in the link do a better job then I ever could

[@stormsy4078]

Made a pistol grip UHF with tons of stuff to do and mix the channels up check mine out

[@dman1848]

Ive got one of these. They're garbage. Wont brake or reverse. If I trim the steering past say %30 it starts accelerating.
