FS-BS6 Receiver

[Harriot10]

Does anyone know where I can get a FS-BS6 receiver? Looks like amazon and ebay sellers are in China. Gotta be somewhere local that stocks them.

I bought mine from a Chinese seller usbkits and it was delivered in like 6 days which wasn’t too bad.

How long ago? I think everything is jacked up now because of the corona virus. I can't get one until the end of March!

I think it was mid January. It hasn’t been that long ago but that virus has been spreading so fast that a “couple weeks time” is probably the equivalent to 1 or 2 months.....

Do you need a gyro and that exact receiver or just a compatible receiver for a GT5?

 

[Harriot10]

No, I just need one compatible with the fs-gt5. I saw the one you sent me in the link. I guess people are jacking up prices and taking advantage of the corona virus.

Flysky FS-A3 is an AFHDS2A receiver and should work with the GT-5 (it uses AFHDS2A) I think it's listed as compatible in the manual. If I had a GT-5 these are the receivers I would buy (if I didn't want a gyro).

Man I don’t know why it’s so hard to get these receivers. I ordered 2 x FS-A3 and it’s taking forever from eBay. Of course the guaranteed delivery date has pasted. I can’t believe they are all in China. Smh

 

[Cheapbastard]

Yeah, it sucks but make sure to at least get your $5 voucher if it was free shipping since it's past the guaranteed delivery date. You should have got a tracking number also. Ebay has always made it right whenever I have had a problem.

Receivers arrived, finally! Seller on eBay was a jerk. He didn't ship until I complained. Glad I bought two, at least I have a spare for future builds. Time to get the batteries charged up!

FS-BS4 also works with the gt5 to help widen your search criteria. Four channels and has a gyro. Probably hit the same issues with not finding local sellers though...

I recently received my order from eBay. I went with the FS-A3’s. I got two, so I have an extra for a future build. They work great! Really don’t need the gyro feature. I actually turned it off on my FS-BS6.

Yea I get ya, I don’t run the gyro either but yea I just ordered an FS-A3 for a cheapo RC that I currently have a FS-BS4 in so I’m gonna swap that for the A3 and keep the BS4 as a spare for my next rig.
