Flysky Turnigy Gt5 review and test part 1 courtesy of Jax RC Recycle and Repair

Thanks to Sean at Jax RC Recycle and Repair for allowing me to test and review this radio. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1474016102841179/ The only place I can find these radios is in China at the moment and on ebay....from china. https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-gt5-6ch-2-4ghz-afhds-2a-surface-radio-w-gt5-receiver-gyro.html Part 2 will show the throttle Gyro in action as well as the 4ws capabilities Over time we figure out what works and what doesn't, Castle ESC's are awesome along with other stuff, below are a few thing I'd say are pretty good for most scaler stuff. I'm not selling, just giving recommendations Castle Sidewinder 4, if you want to get the most out of an unsensored brushless motor, this is the best from what Holmes told and showed me. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FCastle-Creations-SW4-Sidewinder-4-WP-Sensorless-ESC-Speed-Control-Only%2F132488623436%3Fepid%3D3014026441%26hash%3Ditem1ed8eff54c%3Ag%3ACOQAAOSwhplacLy~&campid=5338273090&toolid=20008 Castle MambaX, this is THE best esc on the market for scalers https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FCastle-Creations-Mamba-X-1-10-Sensored-25-2V-Waterproof-ESC-Speed-Controller%2F132071846828%3Fepid%3D501000683%26hash%3Ditem1ec01873ac%3Ag%3AtFEAAOSwHHFY-4Hn&campid=5338273090&toolid=20008 Castle Mamba Micro X for those times where space is tight https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FCastle-Creations-Mamba-Micro-X-12-6V-ESC-w-1406-1900KV-Sensored-Motor-Combo%2F362222774755%3Fepid%3D18010196256%26hash%3Ditem545628e9e3%3Ag%3ArWsAAOSwubFaaNgA&campid=5338273090&toolid=20008 Crawler Innovations Lil Nova foams, just awesome for any scaler tire https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FMIP-13360-Spline-CVD-Center-Drive-Kit-Axial-SCX10%2F302343390877%3Fepid%3D710158359%26hash%3Ditem466512069d%3Ag%3AdEEAAOSwvg9XUizb&campid=5338273090&toolid=20008 Castle Slate motors, awesome power and smooth control when paired with the Mamba X esc. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FCastle-Creations-Slate-1406-Sensored-4-Pole-Brushless-Crawler-Motor-2850kV%2F122481669251%3Fepid%3D815617366%26hash%3Ditem1c8479f483%3Ag%3AK20AAOSwYvFZFjJv&campid=5338273090&toolid=20008 Castle BEC 10a, can't go wrong here for all those big HV servos. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FCastle-Creations-CC-BEC-10A-6S-Switching-Regulator%2F131160444034%3Fepid%3D2069151663%26hash%3Ditem1e89c58c82%3Ag%3A0X8AAOSwFV9Xzdw6&campid=5338273090&toolid=20008 Savox 1230 is awesome and can turn most anything https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FSavox-SA-1230SG-Monster-Torque-Coreless-Steel-Gear-Digital-Servo-Glitch-Buster%2F301992329457%3Fepid%3D2254400767%26hash%3Ditem46502540f1%3Ag%3AcScAAOSw-4BXaZMn&campid=5338273090&toolid=20008 MIP Driveshafts, buy them once and you're good to go https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FMIP-13360-Spline-CVD-Center-Drive-Kit-Axial-SCX10%2F302343390877%3Fepid%3D710158359%26hash%3Ditem466512069d%3Ag%3AdEEAAOSwvg9XUizb&campid=5338273090&toolid=20008
