FrSKY Taranis X9D+

[@doncook9034]

Just got my radio today,coming from spektrum.A bit overwhelming,but I've been following your other videos for a while,and I enjoy your style of presentation.I'm an older guy and not real computer savvy,but I think this series should help a lot. Thank-you for posting.

[@AndrewNewton]

Thanks Don. Cant help you with Spectrum programming I'm afraid, but I guess you can see what is possible.

[@matjazpajek4390]

Got mine a few months ago. It replaced my Spectrum Dx6. The best replacement ever

[@upperechelon3456]

Great video Andrew. Had mine for over a year now and love it.

[@AndrewNewton]

Excellent, wish they made better switches

[@kartherton]

This is going to be very good Andrew. I got my Taranis about six months ago, and i do struggle a bit programming it up some times. Please don't go to quickly with buttons presses that is needed. Thanks. Keith.

Andrew your reviews and tutorials are always very informative . to me opentx is the main reason x9d+ excels

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes so true

[@EnglishTurbines]

Mine is custom sprayed pure white, has the M9 Gimbals and a UHF Module....2650mah 3S power pack. FPV is well suited with this Radio.....The new micro XM Plus receiver can do 5kms...!!!....The L9R a lot more.

[@AndrewNewton]

So many personalised Tarani out there. Good to hear about the XM Plus range!

Hi Andrew, Bought one last month. Also upgraded to the Hall M9 gimbals.

[@AndrewNewton]

Excellent

[@hubebruno]

Very good choice !

[@raffman4266]

Great video sir!

[@stephengloor8451]

Pimped mine with a new case and a rp-sma connector. As I did the gimbals a while ago it is now SE spec. Stopped me buying an Horus X10 that I can afford.

[@AndrewNewton]

Nice.

Hi Andrews, appreciate your videos. already helped me a lot. i started RC flying with a simple 6ch hobbyking transmitter for about 35 bucks - i started with that one, because my budget was limited back at this time and i was unsure if i get into rc flying. soon i upgraded to a Flysky i6 radio. now i am thinking about another upgrade, because with my latest glider (volantis phoenix from Hobbyking), i am limited with the amount of channels. the FS i6 has enough channels for the basic setup, but for a more complex setup the radio has not enough channels i would need for different mixes. my budget for a new transmitter would be around 100-120 bucks. i would also need about 4 - 5 receivers, which should be at a decent price. Do you have a recommendation for a radio? thanks

[@AndrewNewton]

Radiomaster Zorro 4 in 1 or TX12 Mk11 and use your current FlySKY receivers. Or my next review is the FlySKY ST8, which is good too, but you would need new ANT receivers

Hi Andrew , i have been tempted to get a Frsky radio for a while , i currently use Hitec Aurora 9 , and its a great radio , i would love to see someone like yourself get sent a Horus X10 , seems like all the review ones that were sent out were to Quad flyers , which really doesn't make scene to me , i would like to see it reviewed by a plane pilot , but i shall be following this series closely , very interesting . All the best , Scott .......

[@AndrewNewton]

Thanks Scott, I like the look of all the Horus radios, maybe one day

[@cloudsplitter24]

I'd be curious to know your thoughts relative to the X10s too.

[@AndrewNewton]

They look very nice but can't justify buying one just now

[@skypilot23]

I fly in what has to be extremely noisy rf environment- had a fly away probably around 100 meters with x8r and 9d+

[@funkygrib1]

Same here ! when range testing outside the house the range is terrible ! I have tried X8R and even swapped it before leaving home for a D8 and just the same, your right it must be the local RF as this is not a problem at the flying field. It is just annoying, I own a 9d a 9e and a Q7 they are all great...... so good you just dont expect to get that round the estate.

[@AndrewNewton]

I believe wireless security systems are the biggest problem.

[@MikeDesertHunterHale]

keep this series going, please, lol

[@AndrewNewton]

Yes I will Mike.
