LDARC EX8 review: FrSky transmitter for cheap
Last month, LDARC, formally known as Kingkong, announced their third beginner-oriented drone transmitter named EX8. Being compatible only with Futaba & FrSky receivers, without any future upgrade capability, I think they joined late to the game, as everyone moves to ExpressLRS these days. My LDARC EX8 review covers technical specifications, features, and initial settings.

RadioMaster Zorro review – Conquer the Sky!
From my point of view, the selling point of the RadioMaster Zorro transmitter is its big screen. When you are over 40 years old, you are losing the focusing ability for near vision and due to that, the lens inside your eye becomes less flexible. My actual radio controller has a small LCD that makes the configuration part quite...

FrSky Taranis X-LITE transmitter: First rumors (Features and specs)
Surely, FrSky radios have not become so popular because they are affordable. The new Taranis X, even if it is called "Lite", is advertised for more than 200 bucks. I have to admit that, after I reviewed the Taranis Q X7, due to its excellent build quality and compatibility with lots of my FPV drones, I became their fan too...
Coming soon: Flysky FS-FT18 Paladin Transmitter
2019 comes with a new FlySky transmitter called FS-FT18 Paladin. As its name says it, will feature up to 18 channels. But why so many channels? Does anybody use them? Let's be fair, drone pilots will never need more than 6~8 or max 10 channels. The Flysky FS-FT18 was announced in mode 1 and mode 2 variants.
