So far, purely based on the specs we've seen, the TX16S is clearly a better radio than the T16, and it's cheaper! I know a lot of people just bought the T16, and probably not very happy with the news. But the T16 is still a really good radio, the improvements on the TX16S are just small tweaks and not enough to make the T16 obsolete. If you want to learn more about the TX16S, check out my review (well, overview for now): https://oscarliang.com/radiomaster-tx16s/ Posts: 21,289 Threads: 588 Likes Received: 8,980 in 6,646 posts Likes Given: 1,426 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 789 Nice to see a detailed guide and comparison between the T16 ans TX16S.

I got it off amazon so I can probably still return it. • Posts: 5,321 Threads: 674 Likes Received: 3,160 in 1,747 posts Likes Given: 2,033 Joined: Jan 2016 Reputation: 139 (14-Jan-2020, 08:37 PM)SnowLeopardFPV Wrote: Nice to see a detailed guide and comparison between the T16 ans TX16S.

I know it is silly, but I'm still holding out on Futaba or Spektrum coming out with a quality radio that does Open TX and CRSF compatible. They could so do it and given the quality of their radios vs the Chinese versions is hugely better. But I also know my dream likely will never come to be....so here I am, happy with my X9D plus.... • Posts: 5,891 Threads: 47 Likes Received: 2,780 in 2,242 posts Likes Given: 7,673 Joined: Jul 2019 Reputation: 97 I have an original Jumper T16 (yeah, I am still running Jumper TX) and love it . I have not upgraded anything. Before I would spend the money on upgrades, I would seriously consider the RadioMaster TX16S. Or...if I need a replacement or a second transmitter, the RadioMaster is at the top of my list of options . So far, everything that I have seen on this radio is all good, especially for the money. • Posts: 50 Threads: 6 Likes Received: 24 in 18 posts Likes Given: 1 Joined: May 2017 Reputation: 0 I've heard its people from jumper who left and create radio master. not sure... but seems its the new hype, and seems pretty good/ Posts: 5,321 Threads: 674 Likes Received: 3,160 in 1,747 posts Likes Given: 2,033 Joined: Jan 2016 Reputation: 139 Got the T18 in from Jumper a few days ago, I'd say my title still holds Reviewing coming tomorrow.

Jumper T18, RadioMaster TX16S...and at affordable prices. Far Out! Personally, I am looking forward to both reviews. Not that I need a radio transmitter, but you just never know. If I had two... ... what would I do... at some point, I will either need an R9 radio or some place to park my R9 Module (but for now, don't want to pull the multi-module from my Jumper T16 and have to switch...maybe) • Posts: 168 Threads: 6 Likes Received: 36 in 34 posts Likes Given: 16 Joined: Mar 2020 Reputation: 6 I think Radiomaster is the best price/performance radio in the market. I don't think Jumper T18 is a big thread for Radiomaster. They made a good job. I really recommend it to anyone who is looking for a new transmitter.
