Greating from Nor Cal, need help on my first build. kinda jump in head first and am having trouble figureing out which reciver and tranmitter is compatible. Im doing a 6s with the hglrc titan f460 plus stack with samguk shu 2306 1700kv almost have it complete and cant wait to fly it but have no tranmitter or reciver, some one pls any suggestions or recomends? This has already become coastly so wasnt trying to go broke on tranmitters or reciever so i was woundering if the FlySky FS-i6X Transmitter and FS-X6B 6 Channel 2.4GHz Receiver work with my titan stack? • Posts: 12,098 Threads: 125 Likes Received: 3,739 in 2,836 posts Likes Given: 99 Joined: Feb 2017 Reputation: 388 21-Jan-2019, 12:39 AM (This post was last modified: 21-Jan-2019, 12:41 AM by voodoo614.) Pretty much any Flysky, Frsky, or Spektrum radio and a serial receiver will work. So yes, your combo will work. Here is what you have to consider. A radio is something that you want to spend a little bit of money on, because you will have it for a long time. Frsky dominates the FPV scene. A few pros out there do use Spektrum. Flysky tends to be on the low end. Except for the Nirvana, which is not made by Flysky but uses their protocol. Get a QX7 and R-XSR combo. It is worth the extra money over a Flysky. Here is a recent discussion on TX. https://intofpv.com/t-which-tx • Posts: 8 Threads: 2 Likes Received: 0 in 0 posts Likes Given: 0 Joined: Jan 2019 Reputation: 0 Thanks for the info, i will take it into consideration. How every spent most my budget alredy so thats y im leaning toward skyfly, if i do decide to go with the skyfly set up than will i only b able to run it ppm or will skyfly do ubus? • Posts: 21,397 Threads: 593 Likes Received: 9,029 in 6,683 posts Likes Given: 1,428 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 795 (21-Jan-2019, 01:39 AM)Gee_Man_Shalom Wrote: Thanks for the info, i will take it into consideration.

Yes, the FlySky FS-X6B has IBUS capabilities and the HGLRC Titan F460 has a pad for IBUS on its board (it's the pad labelled DSMX on the same edge of the board as the LiPo connections). • Posts: 302 Threads: 46 Likes Received: 152 in 88 posts Likes Given: 61 Joined: Oct 2018 Reputation: 11 i would agree with voodoo614. I have the Qx7 and 9D+ both are great and IMO better equipment. The QX7 is about $110. Qx7 is about 1/2 cost of the 9D+. Receivers; i am getting to really like the r-xsr over the xsr. Frsky also has the XM+ but no telemetry which is a deal breaker for me. But the biggest reason for going with Frsky is the support not only from Frsky but it is very easy to jump on youtube and get lots of help with Frksy but my buddy pulls his hair out trying to get answers on his Flysky stuff....just seems to be more people using Frsky Anyway Welcome.

Plz explain the differance between ibus and sbus is it the same thing just called different by maufactors FrSky calls it SBus and FlySky calls it IBUS or do they have different funcrions? • Posts: 8 Threads: 2 Likes Received: 0 in 0 posts Likes Given: 0 Joined: Jan 2019 Reputation: 0 (21-Jan-2019, 02:14 AM)SnowLeopardFPV Wrote: Yes, the FlySky FS-X6B has IBUS capabilities and the HGLRC Titan F460 has a pad for IBUS on its board (it's the pad labelled DSMX on the same edge of the board as the LiPo connections). Ok good to know thanks for the info i was reading another forum and that one said if i did flysky then i would habe to run ppm. • Posts: 21,397 Threads: 593 Likes Received: 9,029 in 6,683 posts Likes Given: 1,428 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 795 (21-Jan-2019, 08:20 AM)Gee_Man_Shalom Wrote: Plz explain the differance between ibus and sbus is it the same thing just called different by maufactors FrSky calls it SBus and FlySky calls it IBUS or do they have different funcrions? IBUS and SBUS bothe essentially do the same thing but they are just different serial data protocols. In a nutshell, they both provide digital serial data between two devices by way of data packets. IBUS has it's data packet structured in one format while SBUS has it's data packet structured in another format. That's really the only difference but you need specific hardware at each end that can understand, encode and decode either IBUS or SBUS data packets. Oscar has a good article discussing all the different protocols in the link below... https://oscarliang.com/pwm-ppm-sbus-dsm2...difference • Posts: 12,098 Threads: 125 Likes Received: 3,739 in 2,836 posts Likes Given: 99 Joined: Feb 2017 Reputation: 388 To add to Snow explanation, IBUS can be connected to any normal UART port. While SBUS being inverted, requires a special inverted UART usually labeled "SBUS" for a F4 FC like your. Since Frsky is so dominant in the FPV scene, most manufacturers include a special pad for SBUS. To confuse you more, Frsky also have F. Port. Regardless, if you stick with the big three, you can pretty much get them to work with any FC. The other biggest benefit with Frsky, you can have telemetry for a very small price. Telemetry on Flysky is cumbersome. Spektrum, you will paid for it. • Posts: 12,098 Threads: 125 Likes Received: 3,739 in 2,836 posts Likes Given: 99 Joined: Feb 2017 Reputation: 388 What part of Northern California are you from? • Posts: 8 Threads: 2 Likes Received: 0 in 0 posts Likes Given: 0 Joined: Jan 2019 Reputation: 0 (21-Jan-2019, 04:40 PM)voodoo614 Wrote: What part of Northern California are you from?
