RadioMaster TX16S MKII Max 2.4GHz 16-Channel Radio System w/V4 Hall Gimbal
Amazing radio! I have the red 4-in-1 MKII with Hall gimbals and the optional red button which i bought direct from RadioMaster on Amazon.

I own a couple planes and helicopters with Spektrum electronics, and i just used the stock radios as the Spektrum upgraded TXs were way too expensive for my budget. Anyway, one day I was flying my AeroScout and the DXs I was using (It was the one that came with the plane) suddenly dropped connection and the plane just went on its merry way until it eventually crashed and I wasn’t able to get it back. I wasn’t that far away from it either, which made it doubly frustrating. After this incident, I decided to get an upgraded TX so it wouldn’t happen again, so i went to my local hobby shop see about buying a Spektrum one. The prices were way out of my range for what i wanted though, since i only have a couple planes. I already own an MT12 for my surface vehicles, so after doing research it was a no brainer to get this MKII TX16s.

It bound immediately to my replacement AeroScout and i was extremely impressed with the telemetry capabilities! It instantly populated with every single telemetry item, such as G-force, gyro, battery telemetry, RPM, and amps. It’s amazing! No hiccups at all. I then bound it to some other planes and my S3, and all worked seamlessly. The range is way better than the DXs and it has all the features of the super high-end $$$$ Spektrum radios for way less price & more compatibility. You also have cool things you can do such as LED lighting or an ultra long range ELRS module (or 4-in-1 if you have the ELRS version)


Some closing notes -
The radio IS pretty hard to program if you’re not tech-savvy. I figured it out pretty quickly as i already have my MT12. Functions that you’d expect would be on by default will need to be programmed manually.
I added the optional push button to the radio which is available on Amazon or RadioMaster for very cheap.
I updated my radio when I got it. If you don’t, you’ll have to deal with some broken widgets if you end up upgrading later. I would also suggest finding a widget layout that works for you and save it so that the same info is available for all models.
I put a 32GB Lexar MicroSD card in mine to avoid potential issues with the extremely cheap card that comes in the box.
The radio is pretty heavy coming from the super-light DXs but it is still comfortable to hold.
