So a few weeks ago my wife bought me a Flysky G7p because she’s awesome like that. I’ve been using it extensively, and figured I’d give you guys the skinny on it. I’ll start with the bad.
I use one radio for all of my RC vehicles. I ordered 6 receivers for it, and you can only get them directly from china right now. I ordered two from one seller on Amazon, one from another seller, two from Banggood, and one from Walmart.com (believe it or not) just to see which arrived first. The one from Walmart is here, the rest are in different stages of shipment. Long story short, It takes forever to get receivers.
The steering wheel has no foam and feels cheap, on an otherwise premium feeling radio. I know it’s an easy fix through the aftermarket, but I had to mention it.
There isn’t a lot of info on the controls or menu system, you kinda have to feel it out and learn it on your own.
Now the good:
The display is backlit and very clear.
There are infinite adjustments and each menu is laid out to make it easy to use.
Range and reaction time is excellent. I’ve yet to see a glitch, and haven’t found the end of its range.
The controls themselves feel like they belong on a higher end radio. If the steering wheel were nicer, it would feel like a radio that cost $250+.
Binding is push button and effortless.
Bottom line? I love the radio, and very much enjoy using it. I hate waiting for receivers, but other than that, I’d highly recommend one to anyone who wants premium features for under $100. Id give it a 9 out of 10 due to its price and premium features and feel.
