Thank you so much, a nice comment like this brightens my day 😊

[@truth409]

I'd like to share how I fixed my fly sky FXI6 from the ayron channel from jittering turned out the spring tension is too loose.... You have to put a space or under the screw then the screw hits the back of the transmitter casing so you have to take a driMelll and make more room You could notice that the elevator sticks bring has more attention from the factory So you increase this tension of the spring and no more jittering when moving elevator stick!!!

The paper sheet 6CH Reciver ONLY buys this item, can other remote control be able to control it?

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

It is a FlySky item, so it is designed to work with FlySky controllers. You would need to look at the technical specifications for your controller to see if it is compatible. I did find the WL V911 receiver worked with my FlySky controller so maybe a WL controller might work with a FlySky receiver, but I haven't tried it, so I don't know.

Try disconnecting the motor and just try it with the steering? If the steering works then it was the motor (or ESC). Try each of the channels connected to the steering. You could power the receiver with a single cell battery to see if it works without the ESC.

Sir my receiver ,3 servos not working but the brushless motor is working sir Can u explain any method to repair it sir and what the problem is

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Short answer, no. If your ESC is controlling your brushless motor OK, does the ESC work plugged into the other channels? That way you will know if it is the servos that are faulty or the receiver.

Hey I’m having an issue where I get no response from the trigger, when I swap the steering servo and each cables over from channel 1 to 2 the throttle does work but only via the steering wheel and now the trigger still won’t control the steering servo? Is the transmitter and receiver faulty? Or both

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Let me see if I understand what you are saying Step by step 1. Steering motor works when you operate the steering Drive motor does not work when you operate the throttle On the receiver you swap the drive and the steering wires over 2. Drive motor works when you operate the steering Steering does not work when you operate the throttle In both cases nothing happens when you operate the throttle. So you have proved that both motors work but you cannot prove whether it is the transmitter or the receiver that is faulty. You are right, you cannot prove which is faulty without having another transmitter or another receiver that you know works.

[@kadirm4924]

GrandadIsAnOldMan thanks for your reply I do have another controller but it has the same issue now this either a series of very unfortunate coincidence or I have two bad controllers with the same issue I have tested both with 3 different escs 3 motors and different steering servos

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

If you have tried it with a different controller and you get the same issue then - as you say unless you have a very unfortunate coincidence - it does look like it is the receiver that is faulty. I have burned out the power transistors in many of my toy grade receivers on the drive motor output, usually by trying to drive the car through grass, the motor overheats, draws too much current through the receiver and the power transistor fails. On hobby grade receivers I have only had problems in the receivers when I have got them wet. All the power is handled by the ESC externally so when the ESC is overloaded and fails it does not affect the receiver.

[@IeuanBevan.]

Im a noobie here. How do people connect live camera feeds to this and use the same antenna?

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

@IeuanBevan. Short answer, "You don't." If you are thinking FPV, you will find that uses a separate rc signalling board. You might link to this receiver just to get a battery feed, but you won't be sending any video signal through it.

[@IeuanBevan.]

@GrandadIsAnOldMan ah right okay that makes complete sense now haha thanks alot! I want to build a big rolling platform, can understand how you make FPV video very long range with a home station however would you know how you can make an RC work super long range? At least a mile range? Any sort of special receiver or home station? A reciver which can control a 12v dc moter, as well as some additional optional add ons.

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

@IeuanBevan. there are all sorts of regulations covering long-range FPV, so I would suggest researching the regulations before spending any money. It probably depends on which country you live in.

[@IeuanBevan.]

@GrandadIsAnOldMan last question haha, trying to understand also. You know how alot of long range drones have Gimbal with 2 Metal Servos. (Moving cameras) How do those moters get controlled by the same antenna on a drone to the same transmitter and still are able to be controlled super duper long range? Such as the parrot Anafia drone?

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Each servo will be controlled by a different channel on you RC gear. On some systems they even have motion sensors set into your FPV headset so the gimbals react to movements of your head. As far as the radio gear is concerned it is just another signal sent on another channel. Going back to the start of this thread, you are commenting on a 3 channel RC receiver. That means this receiver can only control 3 things, such as throttle, elevator, and rudder. What you are talking about is way beyond the capabilities of this receiver. On the subject of long range FPV you might find the Traxxalu channel interesting www.youtube.com/@Traxxalu-en9lz

[@mikamikowsky4183]

Hello. I have a question. What is this small pcb circuit betwen battery pack and reciever? Thank you.

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

I think you mean the ESC. That is the Electronic Speed Controller used to control the electric motor. It also includes the BEC - battery eliminator circuit - which allows you to use the same battery for the motor and receiver. Systems without that feature mean you need two batteries - one for the receiver and one for the motor. In cases where you don't need a motor - maybe a glider - then you would use a BEC on it's own to ensure the correct voltage is supplied to power the receiver and maybe the servos.

I don't see what you need a video for, maybe I misunderstand your question. You plug the ESC into the receiver. It will have the right sort of plug to fit. It will also have a plug for the battery and another plug for the motor. They are all different shaped plugs so they cannot be mistaken. It will probably have an on/off switch too. You choose which channel you want to plug it into depending on what you are using it for.

[@chetansinghponia8019]

I am having a normal rc reciever .so can you tell me how to connect the servo to it so that it can automatically come in the center position after the control button is relased...actually i had tried but its not working...

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

You say a "normal receiver". Do you mean a cheap "Toy Grade" receiver where you control is just Left or Right with no proportional movement like a Hobby Grade system. If that is the case then you are out of luck. A hobby grade servo is not compatible with that sort of receiver. Toy grade works with just reversing the current flow so left has the current flowing one way and right has the current flowing the other way and the return to centre is done my a spring attached to the car bodywork. A hobby grade servo has 3 wires. the power is supplied on two of them and the third wire carries the signal from the receiver to the control board inside the servo and tells it how far to move the servo arm and in which direction. The control board inside the servo interprets that signal and turns the motor. There is a potentiometer attached to the shaft of the servo arm and the controller board measures the resistance of that potentiometer so it can tell how far it has moved and stops it at the required position. Just reversing the current into a hobby grade servo will not make it go backwards, in fact it will probably kill the controller board inside the servo. You can remove the controller board from inside the servo and connect power direct to the servo motor to drive it in each direction BUT YOU WILL NOT HAVE AN AUTOMATIC CENTRE FACILITY and the gearing in the servo will be too strong for a normal toy grade spring to return it to the middle. I will paste another reply here with my standard text on this subject.

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

My standard reply text to this type of question. Hi chetan ponia, thanks for commenting. LONG ANSWER now. I am afraid that standard hobby grade servos are not directly compatible with toy grade RC receivers. They work in a different way. Hobby grade servos have a 3rd wire, that is a signal wire that the receiver uses to tell the servo controller board how far and which direction to turn the armature. The controller board in the servo then turns the armature the required distance. Toy grade receivers just have two wires and have three signal states. (1) Applying the battery plus and minus on the wires turns the steering motor one way. (2) No battery applied allows the spring return to centre the steering. (3) Applying the battery minus and plus on the wires turns the steering motor the other way. If you connect the same two wires to an ordinary DC electric motor and apply "Left" the motor will keep spinning as long as you hold the transmitter on "Left". If you then apply "Right" then the motor will spin in the opposite direction. In toy grade steering the only thing that stops the motor from spinning is the mechanics of the steering so the motor is still trying to spin but the steering arm has reached stop. On a hobby grade servo the electronics measure how far the steering has turned and stops the motor electronically. Reversing the power feeding a hobby grade servo will probably damage the servo controller board, it certainly wouldn't make it turn the opposite way. If you remove the servo controller board and connect the output from the toy grade receiver directly to the motor inside the servo then it would go forwards or backwards like the toy grade motor but it would go all the way until it meets the internal mechanical stop inside the servo, so you would not have proportional steering. Also because the motor is heavily geared the normal spring on the toy car would not be strong enough to return the servo to the centre position when you want it to go straight, so you would be worse off than you were with the original toy grade steering. ??

[@ericbrockhus2518]

yes you can recreate it. just set failsafe to full throttle first. so hold the stick in full throttle with the prop spinning. and while it is spinning you have to push the button on the rceiver and hold it. it will start blinking for 2 seconds or so and then it will stay on again. now let go of the button. ready fail safe is reprogrammed to full throttle when you loose signal. so if you let go of the stick the prop will stop again. switch off the transmitter and the prop will start spinning full throttle again. o.m.g. we have a problem. well to solve this you can set the fail safe and it works like this bla bla bla and you can show how to solve it again.

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Thanks Eric. You would think they could include that information with the receiver. It only needs them to photocopy a bit of paper and include it in the package 😊

[@thetwogardens6048]

What voltage do these receivers use ?

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Here is the link to the Manufacturers description www.flysky-cn.com/gr3e-canshu it says 4.0 to 6.5 volts. If you are using a standard RC ESC to control your motor it probably supplies the correct voltage to the receiver. The ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) supplies the power to the motor and usually has a BEC (Battery Eliminator Circuit) included in its design to ensure 5 volts is supplied to the receiver, regardless of what voltage it is supplying to the motor. If you are interested in Radio Control I recommend watching the FliteTest RC Planes - beginners series kzbin.info/aero/PL6IuSFWz4ktvupu_gxw1vn-sjBGOkJFHV They talk about everything required for RC on aircraft but most of it also applies to cars and boats.

Hi, Can i use Li-Po 7.4v battery for ESC 30A with this receiver? does it burn the receiver for this voltage?

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

If your ESC has the built in BEC circuitry then it will supply the correct voltage to the receiver. A battery eliminator circuit (BEC) is an electronic circuit designed to deliver electrical power to other circuitry without the need for multiple batteries. Most ESCs have this facility but read it's specification to be sure. That means that if the ESC is designed to handle a 6S LiPo battery (23v) but it is equipped with a BEC it would still deliver the 5 volts to the receiver

@@alihamidiyt as far as I know virtually all hobby grade receivers are designed to work on 5 volts. They are usually powered from a special circuit in the ESC that drops the power from the main battery down to the 5 volts the receiver needs to operate. That circuit is called the BEC (battery eliminator circuit) because it eliminates the need to have a separate battery supply for the receiver.

@@GrandadIsAnOldMan what ESC is that?

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

@@Davis-tl1rc this video is over 2 years old but that type of ESC is fairly generic. I had a quick look on eBay for you and this looks like the same one www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232742004939

[@ericbrockhus2518]

for 4 or 5 dollars you buy an esc without a brake. you do not need a break on the boat. it is only anoying.

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

That's right, you will find other videos on my channel with "brakeless" ESCs, I don't see any benefit on planes either. I have read some discussions on the RC forums but none of them convinced me. The only place I can see a benefit is on some RC cars where you are worried about messing up the gearbox by throwing it straight into reverse.

[@ericbrockhus2518]

Well it is true it is mainly for cars. but it can be more important then you think. when you are racing an rc car down a track it sometimes is necessary to brake when reaching a sharp bent in the track. throwing it into reverse will make it spin out of control. the brake function is proportional so very useful. also when driving a crawler it is very useful to have a brake. now you can descent slowly down a steep part instead of just race down. rc crawling is about control and slow movement

[@samiamcas]

@@GrandadIsAnOldMan what esc did you use for this??

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

@@samiamcas the esc is related to the motor and battery you choose, not the receiver.

Can I bind with flysky fs16 transmitter

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Sorry I can't help you there, I don't have the fsi6. I would suggest checking out one of the RC forums. I doubt it will work.

[@jamesbaldwin4608]

Hi Randomstuff. I just had the same problem, I wanted to use this receiver in a small glider, and this was all that would fit. At first I couldn't bind it to my fs16, so I did some research. This reciever is on system AFHDS, wheras the fs16 is on AFHDS 2A. No worries, you can select the right system in the menu, and all will bind just as it should. In AFHDS you don't get the two way connection, ie the Rx voltage displayed on the transmitter display, but that's a small price to pay.

[@truth409]

It didn't work in my aircraft that was made of epp and goodness...Crashed

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

These 3ch re3ceivers are really intended for cars, so I don't think they have the same range as the other receivers, however, they still work if you are flying reasonably close, such as park flying.

[@DEKUYUS]

what thing you connect with battery

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

The component between the battery and the RC receiver is called an ESC (electronic speed controller). If you want to know more about radio control and the components I strongly recommend the FliteTest RC Planes - beginners series kzbin.info/aero/PL6IuSFWz4ktvupu_gxw1vn-sjBGOkJFHV

[@randomstuff8286]

Does it bind with fly fi6

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

I don't have an i6 but this video show you how to do it kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIOVoX2DpJifj7M if you check the FS-I6 manual it tells you on section 8.1 which receivers are AFHDS and which are AFHDS-2A

[@magdighazi3774]

I did what you do and the receiver burnt out

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Obviously you did something wrong. Most likely connected the wrong size battery or reversed the polarity. Did you connect a battery direct or did you use an ESC as shown?

How much please

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

I suggest you go online and search for them. The prices vary depending on the seller. eBay and AliExpress are often the cheapest sites although I trust AliExpress less than eBay.

[@MrTRA504]

Is the receiver waterproof thanks 👍

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

They are not sold as "waterproof". I have got them wet a few times and they have survived and I did open one up and give it a good coating of nail varnish when I knew I was going to be using it in a boat that was likely to get very wet. Here is the video of that bit kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2bZZahqnKylabM

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

+TheFreddyPlayer the battery and the esc should be chosen based on what motor you are intending to use. I suggest you look at a channel like FliteTest to get information from people who know what they are talking about.

[@chally2mbt12]

GrandadIsAnOldMan I’ve tried to bind my electronics that are the exact same reviver and controller and I did not bind and kept flashing with the ref light

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

@@chally2mbt12 in my video description there are links to other people's videos on binding these receivers if my video was not clear enough. The only point I would make is - press and hold the bind button before you switch on the transmitter and release the bind button after the transmitter is on. The sequence I followed was switch OFF receiver and transmitter Check you know where the BIND plug should go on the receiver Insert BIND plug in the BIND position on the receiver (still switched OFF) Press and hold the BIND button on the transmitter With your finger STILL on the BIND button, switch on the transmitter Take your finger off the BIND button Now switch ON the receiver The light should go steady Switch OFF the receiver Switch OFF the transmitter REMOVE the BIND plug from the receiver Switch ON the transmitter Switch ON the receiver They should now be working

Failsafe is for nitro and petrol rc cars.

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

With some ESCs if you lose the signal they go to full throttle. The failsafe prevents that. That doesn't differentiate between cars, boats, or planes. It is an ESC 'feature'.

Brilliant... is this a how to use the wrong radio for your model, and how to take 5 times longer than it should to bind your receiver. I'd leave the vid's to the pro's mate... 😂

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Perhaps you could take the time to make a video of your own to show us how to do it

[@thesizzmann]

@@GrandadIsAnOldMan No thanks, i'd recomend to follow the instructions given on there website. You are also using an air transmitter when you need to use a land/water transmitter. They self centre the throttle so you can actually use the model properly.

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

Haha, brilliant reply for somebody who cannot be bothered to back up their comment with a demonstration. I accept I am no RC expert but I do know how the transmitter works. You obviously know that for a mode 2 transmitter the left stick auto centres horizontally but not vertically and the right stick auto centres in both orientations. This suits my style of boat, car and aircraft flying. On many of my boats I use two motors with differential thrust for the steering controlled by the left and right stick. For most of the time I would set the left stick as the main speed control and the right stick would then provide the steering by varying the speed in relation to the left stick. The issue with the brake on the ESC is not a problem if I am using the right type of ESC for a boat or aircraft (no brake required) but is always a problem with this particular type of ESC with a very basic brake and no programmable features and the FlySky FST4B transmitter as it does not give the full throws required to activate and deactivate the brake effectively. A simple hazard when buying the cheapest of the cheap RC component parts. You will find I have demonstrated this in another video and for the record I do have a few "Pistol Grip" style transmitters including one I bought specifically to test out these cheap "brake" type ESCs.
