WFLY T18 transmitter: Android OS & 7″ FPV screen

WFLY T18 remote controller

If you read our PNP, BNF, ARF, RTF comparison, you probably already knows that only RTF package includes a remote controller. In case of the rest, you will need to use your own transmitter. Featuring up to 18 channels, built-in W.Bus and PPM transmitters, the WFLY T18 can be used with many BNF and PNP drones. Furthermore, thanks to the integrated 5.8G receiver and 7″ FPV monitor it can be used with racing FPV quadcopters as well.

Based on Android operating system, the WFLY T18’s main interface can be easily personalised. You can create shortcuts just like on your mobile device.

Featuring two-way communication, in addition to the FPV OSD screen, it can be display real-time flight information directly from the flight controller’s sensors.

Unfortunately, the cool features are paired with a corresponding price tag. Advertised for almost $400, only few hobbyist will pull the trigger (even with Santa’s help :D ) for a such expensive RC gear.
