Great series and just at the right time for me with a new RM here! I didn't have much luck with the firmware update though. Using a Mac here and although it shows the firmware has been flashed when I start again the radio starts as normal with no calibration required and the models are still in the radio. I'm on the latest Firmware so no problem, but will see what happens when the next OTX update comes out.

Came just a bit too late for me as I fumbled my way through on Friday! Very slow start (I'm used to Spektrum) but, with the aid of your 12 part series and some fiddling, I am now very comfortable and adding models thick and fast. I'm going to leave my flapped glider, where I want all sorts of modes, to the end!

So I've received my Radiomaster two weeks ago, i'm a noob though starting on a sim, however I've been every day doing research about this hobby for about 4 months now, and i'm not working. I've installed beta flight, Inav and more mostly thanks to this series and some reading on GIThub. Apparently they are releasing a version in December (same product tx16s) but with colour options and a two hole lanyard, a foldable handle that is longer. However, I have no regrets because the manufacturer is good and they provide all of the parts, great service and they listen to their customers, so I'm pretty sure i can upgrade some of the newer counterparts if i wanted to in the future! ps: great work on your videos, I'm commenting as a part to remind myself to watch some series of your vids such as INAV and some goggle reviews.

Bernie o'connor , if it’s from Banggood I had been waiting for over a month and was getting very annoyed, so I got into their customer service and said if it wasn’t delivered soon I would be asking for my money back and probably never use them again. That was yesterday and they said they would be receiving a new batch by the 17th. Low and behold I got a message saying it’s been shipped today. So put a fire under their arses and they’ll send it very soon.

I have just flashed OpenTX onto this and are liking it so far, BUT this is replacing my HorusX12S and is like black and white, I fly Planes Helicopters, Quads and rather expensive models and its got me a little jumpy to say the least changing to a cheap transmitter, looks can be deceiving as for quality and I hope the T16S proves to me its good quality, I almost considered selling both today to get the X10S Express but are just going to keep the Horus for the expensive models until the RadioMaster has proven itself to me, would you fly expensive models with The Radiomaster?

With any new radio it can take time to get up the levels of confidence that you have with an radio you've had for a while. These radios are very new so how they will fair over the longer term will only be shown with time. With that said, the issues with the T16 radio from last year has already surfaced and so far (touch wood) this radio doesn't seem to have the same issues. Personally, I'm getting more and more used to it. For the more expensive models I'd be tempted to use an FrSky Module in the bay but I'm sure with a little more flying my confidence levels will be at the point that I would consider this to become my daily driver..

Why can't they just make something that can plug straight into the radio that will put any updates on it through WiFi. It would be so much easier, wouldn't it? I'm not good on computers.
