what is the difference between the mode 1 and the mode 2?

Great video!

@iamtherealzim

Mode1 and Mode2 differ in the way the controls are setup. Typically Mode 2 is used in the US and has the throttle channel on the left stick. Mode 1 typically is more used in Europe and has the throttle stick on the right. Basically they are set up with sticks controls opposite to each other. Always make sure you order the correct Mode that you prefer. Just think of it like cars in the UK vs cars in the US, where the sterring wheel is on oposite sides, LOL hope that helps..

Hobby king has the parts, but they are based out of Hong Kong and a order can take 4 to 6 weeks for delivery, they didnt tell me this.

It is probably worth the extra money to save time on getting parts from a local online retailers.

@NoobyRC

Thanks for watching. HobbyKing is based out of HongKong. If you ordered about a month ago it was a little slower because they were in the process of moving to a new larger warehouse. They seem to be back up to speed now. I live in Missouri and I get the parts from Hong Kong in about 5 working days when I use EMS shipping. About 7 to 10 working days  for standard international shipping.

Thanks, Paul

@startazz

Thanks for watching and the cool comment startazz! i too wish i had this radio back when I was starting out. Its nice low cost and 2.4 ghz operation with no frequency crystals makes it a good starter radio.

Re modes 1 and 2, I would tend to think these can be changes if need be?, In NZ mode 1 seems to be the norm, I prefer mode 2

[yuriogy1]

the prices seem really good but the shipping is expensive!

@HobbykingLive where can i order the training cable, ive looked on the store site and i can not find it.

[party23able]

what battery did you used on the receiver?

[Hobby331]

Why is it that depending on how I push the throttle from zero up, I get about four different power levels from about 30% to 100%? Looks like it's some feature but I can't understand this and manual don't mention that. I use 25A red Brick and it's all set right as far as I know.

@HobbykingLive can you please tell me if there is a difference in transmiter CT6B i think that is the same tranmitter with other sticker.if its a satelite receiver the signal is bigger because my receiver its not satelite

[shebotnov]

I seems have troubles binding it. I have 6Ch HK-T6A. The light on the receiver doesn't stop blinking :(

[pietzeekoe]

is there a driver for win7?

[shebotnov]

@MrIFHI So do you need a cable in the end? And if so, what cable do I need?

[shebotnov]

What is the satellite thingy? Do I need to buy it too?
