If you fly Betaflight, Cleanflight, or KISS, you need to correctly calibrate your channel endpoints--no matter what transmitter you use. I'll show you how to do this using the FlySky FS-i6.

You didn't tell people most important thing about this radio - you save settings by holding "cancel". Many people change settings then fail to save them and are lost in trouble shooting hell. Also this radio with 14 channel + timer mod is awesome. I even put taranis pr10 gimbals on it just for fun of it.

Hello Joshua,I am very pleased that you are giving this radio some love. In my opinion it is the most capable radio in the sub 50 EUR price range. (Even sub 40!) There is a 10 channel software mod that also give the possibility to set a timer, voltage alarms etc. For this software I refer to the rcgroups FS-i6 tread. I wouldn't mind you reviewing this radio a bit more in detail as I didn't known this setting for example. Many folks are using this a first radio Especially when the Q X7 wasn't around yet.

Thank you. I already moved endpoints as you're described there two weeks ago for FS-i6X transmitter which mine coworker bought for his Wizard X220. Such transmitter after month of flying had all channels shifted by +2/-4 with middle point in BetaFlight around 1506 by default. Which caused drift and impossibility to arm without pulling stick down by force. Cheap Chinese stick resistors in glance. After endpoint tuning it now have correct ends and center.

Great tip for the beginners most ppl that start in auto level modes never know why they are getting drift or uneven control in turns. Even intermediates have issues with why they cant flip or roll to one side the same. its also good to calibrate sticks evey now and then on flysky remote for sure when you get it

Good info. My fs i6 didnt need too much trim adjustment, but my spektrum dx6e needs to be adjusted to nearly 150% to make the end points where they need to be. I also experienced the importance of doing this when I was doing a micro brushed build. The transmitters min throttle was around 18% throttle, so it wouldn't arm since you couldnt go to an actual 0% throttle.

I run IBUS primarily because it avoids the inversion issues encountered with a lot of F4 boards. The pairing of the i6 (i6x) and the A8S and A6X receivers are the best way to get into the air cheaply, although I'd still recommend the Turnigy Evolution for anybody looking to get started who knows they'll want to fly thumbs.

Now the secret is out ,the price will go up! Its good that you have finally discovered it ,as its a really good tx for the money. I have the Eachine version and updated it to the 10 channel mod and then ,RSSI version , I then updated the firmware on the FS-IAB6 with a ST link tool to 1.6 ,this then gave me RSSI on my TX screen and more importantly in my OSD! The number of channels and lack of RSSI were for me the only things missing from this radio. I also de-pinned the FS-IAB6 (why? ,has the greatest range)and it was more compact and now 6 grams lighter. Photos below. I was going to make a video of the whole process ,but I then bought a newer FS-IAB6 (RX) and before I installed it I copied the firmware and they now seem to be on 1.6 ,also this radio is rebranded as a Turniby ,Eachine and Flysky(all the same ,different firmware and easy to change). The FS-IAB6 is a 6channel receiver ,but the you can use ibus (better) and you get more channels. The gimbals are probably not as good as a more expensive TX but they work and the replacements are cheap ,I have thrashed mine constantly on my quads and simulator and still going strong ,but yes it does jitter ,just add 5 for dead band. If mine breaks ,I would buy the new 10 ch version £37! what value..... It proves you don't have to spend a fortune to get into this hobby. www.dropbox.com/s/9306apvjghha33t/20170609_175237.jpg? www.dropbox.com/s/i8hatvl6xz6celq/DSCN0410.JPG?dl=0 www.dropbox.com/s/og982qihc1pa6my/Original%20Eachine%20Racer%20RX.JPG?dl=0

Thank you for using Flysky as an example. It really isn't a bad radio. The only thing I'd like to bring up is the fs-A8S. Extremely bad receiver. Check out RCgroups "FS-A8S Help" thread. Now the fs-x6b is a really nice reliable receiver. Only issue I'm having is setting up failsafe. I've installed BF 3.2 on my quad.
@tehllama42
@tehllama42 7 жыл бұрын
The A8S (per the manual) is incapable of failsafe... although I was able to get it to act somewhat like a F2 Failsafe in BF3.1.7... that said, because diversity for such a small weight penalty is better, I recommend the X6B as well... I have had a great time with my trio of A8S receivers, but there are moments where I can tell I'm losing RC signal and crashing as a direct result.

Great stuff as always! Would like to see a video about what to do when you adjust the endpoints as far as they can go and you're still not sitting on 1000-2000. I have a DX6 with some DSM2 receiver (on a whoop) where I can't get the high end to 2000, only to like 1840 or so. Maybe there's some trick on my radio to allow adjustment beyond 150% but in any case I learned about "rxrange" in betaflight which can resolve this problem (and also allows to reverse the channel thus averting having to do it on the radio).

Just use cli and you dont need to touch the trims or endpoints on the transmitter. rxrange 0 (low point) (high point) If your low number is 1005 and your high end points is say 2115. Then it would be rxrange 0 1005 2115 rxrange 1 1005 2115 rxrange 2 1005 2115 rxrange 3 1005 2115 Enter after each line and save. All endpoints are now 1000 middle 1500 and high point is 2000. If your numbers are different for each channel use those numbers accordingly.

All I did was set up the 180, then go into the 150 settings on the radio, copied the changes, and when I plugged in the 150 to betaflight, that drift was gone. Amazing! Thanks for all your efforts.

Or just use iBus which (I'm pretty sure) magically sets the endpoints correctly without human intervention. The only time I ever used SBUS on my i6x was with an Omnibus FC which had inversion on one of the UARTs and I needed all my UARTs.

That's what I thought. Though I just started doing fast righthand rolls and noticed that they were much faster than the easier lefthand rolls I'm used to. Checked in betaflight and was baffled to see the endpoint at 1100. Now I check really everything after every (re-)build

I have temporarily reduced the power settings in the throttle curve menu selection to 0,10,31,45,60. Should the endpoints still be adjusted for 1000-2000 or will this not be valid with the change to the throttle curve?

if you have reduced the throttle curve in the transmitter then you don't need it to hit 1000 int he receiver tab.

I guess you've tried the Turnigy Evolution? To me it feels very solid for a budget radio and has that unique form factor; but you're not a fan?

I have to agree with Joshua - the form factor is perfect if you want a console game controller to run on thumbs. Even more awesome with the wide lillypad stick tops.... but if you fly pinch, it's far less comfortable. Therefore, I run an i6x as a pinch flyer, but my friends who fly thumbs all love their Evos

Joshua, I recently have been seeing my (FrSky Taranis X9DPlus) stick centers at 1517, rather than 1500 in BetaFlight ... What might be causing this? I haven't done any trimming with buttons, I haven't done any FC stick commands to set trim, nor have I touched the subtrim menus on my radio... Just curious if this will cause problems or go away or do I need to take action!?!

If the sticks repeatedly fail to re-center correctly it could mean your gimbals are wearing out. This is more likely if you have the old style PT1 gimbals vs. the new M9 gimbals.

Hello sir, I have a question... I just received new motors and I'm adding them to an existing build. Finished soldering new motors on and upon arming, motors spin up CRAZY. Do I have to go into betaflight and do anything?? I figured since the board was already set up, I wouldn't have to connect to computer?? I wired the motor the same way last motors were wired. I did switch from 1104 6500kv to 1105 7500kv if that matters. Thank you for your time

@JoshuaBardwell 7 жыл бұрын
If all you did was change the motors, then I don't know why they are spinning. So you must have done something other than just change the motors.

Joshua Bardwell I think I went thru adjusting end points like in this video.... I'll just go home and plug it in. I need to make sure motor direction is correct also. I hope is easily fixed. Maybe I'll just make a new model and rebind it.

You mention plugging in your battery before making adjustments. Is this really necessary? I was able to adjust endpoints and subtrims without plugging in battery (just plugging into Betaflight).

Not all FC power the receiver when plugged in to USB. Yours does, in which case you don't need to plug in to adjust these settings.

Joshua why not using the rxrange commands for channel 1 to 4. Regards out of Germany
@JoshuaBardwell
@JoshuaBardwell 7 жыл бұрын
Because it reduces the resolution of the channel. Always better to adjust endpoints in the TX if possible. Also, n00bs have a hard time figuring out how to use rxrange.

Joshua Bardwell: Thanks Joshua, just a quick one, do I even reduce resolution setting (at my Taranis) endpoint to 125 % or do I mess something up?

Use rxrange to change the expected endpoints in cleanflight/betaflight.
