About this deal

Just to point out for people who don't know, there are 3 versions of the Noble Pro, the EN version, EU version, and the Asian version.

My first computerised TX was a Turnigy TGY-i10 (It’s a rebrand of the FlySky FS-i10). It was OK (Ish) But it’s been hobbled by buggy Turnigy reworked versions of the firmware. Every new revision of the firmware removed a couple of the bugs, But added a handful more. It’s a real shame because in my opinion the switch and slider layout is better than the Flysky original. In the end I “Upgraded” to a perfectly stable i6 that just worked. The i6 has quite a community following and I soon installed one of the 10 channel firmwares to it. I also added a single cell Li-Po, A USB charging board, And replaced one of the pots with a 6 position rotary switch. That turned it into something so much more usable than my original TGY-i10.The upgraded version of the RX2A with longer range. It features better antennas with IPEX connectors so you can easily replace them. Failsafe is available with iBus. The FS-i6 is commonly found supplied with RTF (Ready To Fly) models, due to this I believe that manufacturers share the opinion that the FS-i6 is a great TX for beginners. Firstly, there is a wider range of small size RX for FrSky. Although they are generally slightly more expensive, but the full featured options and additional range they provide are worth the extra investment Realistically you will soon begin to feel limited if you only have 6 channels available, therefore we have only included TX’s with 6 channels or more. Flysky TX and RX Protocols I do think that the designers may have pushed appearance ahead of function in some areas, as they have neglected to include trim buttons. Ideally you should trim your craft using the ‘sub-trim’ option in the TX menu, this then saves the trim setting to the model memory data. However I find that it is easier to use the trim buttons to stabilize the craft 1st, then remove trim added via the buttons in conjunction with adjusting the sub-trim through the menu.

As you can see, when using a FlySky RX there can be some sacrifices that must be made to ensure you have an operational failsafe. Failsafe is probably not as critical to an indoor model or a micro that you use in the garden, but it is far more important than telemetry. For some reason the most suitable RX FlySky make for larger models (the FS-X6B) only provides a failsafe on the older PWM protocol, which is nonsensical in my view. It supports the cruise control function. Therefore, you can easily set the fixed speed and enjoy the play. Have noticed they have changed the design of the charger as the old one looked like a vinyl record, which I actually didn't like the look of as it bore no relation to RC but some people thought it was cool though. This one now has a simple rubberised top.Borrowing heavily from the design of the i10, the FS-i8 isn’t the best looking TX available, (some will say that’s a gross understatement) but that can be put, in-part, down to the large TFT colour touch-screen. The FCC high power firmware with a more reliable new RF library makes Noble Pro's range increased by 50 m* compared to NB4 (standard firmware).

The selection of RX that I have detailed above are the cream of what Flysky currently have to offer for mini quad and micro quads, but there are pro’s and con’s to each. The Eachine Minicube Flysky RX is a great option for outdoor models between 100mm and 180mm due to its 20x20mm mounting pattern, and pre-installed buzzer. Note: Micro RX often do not support PWM due to their limited physical size to provide sufficient space for the necessary solder pads. FlySky TX models For Mini Quad The FS-A8S was one of the 1st micro RX available for FlySky, it weighs just 1.2 grams, and is commonly supplied with FlySky TX’s as a bundle.

The transmitter power supply includes a 2600mAh Li-ion battery built into the grip, and a 4300mAh Li-Po removable battery that also functions as the base of the transmitter. You can charge the removable battery with the included USB cable and also use it to charge other devices using it's USB output. Three built-in high-performance processing chips allow Noble Pro to have an unprecedented performance boost.
