Redcat Racing, the premier source for quality Gas, Nitro and Electric powered RC vehicles, announces their new role as a North American distributor for select FLYSKY radios.

Models available through Redcat Racing and many Redcat Racing Authorized Dealers

FS-GT3B = (surface)
FS-GT3C = (surface)
FS-iT4S = (surface)
FS-GT5 = (surface)
FS-i10 = (air)

This exciting move, to distribute FlySky radios, gives Redcat customers the option to easily upgrade their RTR radio to a more advanced computer style radio with more adjustments for different driving styles. Redcat currently offers four Flysky 2.4GHz surface radios, and one Flysky 2.4GHz aircraft radio. Additional FLYSKY radios will be added to the line up in the coming months.

The FS-i10

The FS-i10 aircraft radio is truly an amazing radio. Not only does the i10 use 2.4GHz AFHDS 2 (automatic frequency hopping 2nd gen), but it is also lightweight, comfortable to hold, and includes a stylus for use on the touch screen display. The 8-switches and 5-knobs offer precise control and tuning options, while the temperature sensor, voltage sensor, and speed sensors feed the user useful information about the performance of the aircraft. All of this is now available through Redcat Racing.

The FS-iT4S

The FS-iT4S is a highly advanced surface radio. Not only does it use the secure 2.4GHz AFHDS 2 (automatic frequency hopping 2nd gen) technology, but it also has outstanding ergonomics. The unique swinging steering panel, and angled touch screen make this radio a pleasure to hold. The FS-iT4S is a huge jump up from the radios included with RTR cars, trucks, and boats. The FS-iT4S is now available for purchase at the Redcat Racing website.

The FS-GT3C

The FS-GT3C is the perfect mix of economics and performance. We see the FS-GT3C as being the most popular radio upgrade for racers and hard core bashers alike. This solid radio has everything you need in a computer radio, and nothing you don't. The titanium color theme looks great and the dropped steering wheel provides for ultimate comfort. The buttons and switches are all laid out ergonomically for easy use. The FS-GT3C uses a secure 2.4GHz AFHDS (automatic frequency hopping) technology for a solid driving experience for your cars, trucks, and boats. The FS-GT3C is now available for purchase at the Redcat Racing website.

The FS-GT3B

The FS-GT3B is the next level up from RTR vehicle radio systems. It offers a secure 2.4GHz AFHDS (automatic frequency hopping) technology, as well as many digital controls. The LCD screen is easy to read and the selection wheel makes scrolling through the menus a breeze. The FS-GT3B is now available for purchase at the Redcat Racing website.

The FS-GT5

The FS-GT5 2.4GHz radio is the perfect radio for Rock Crawling. Equipped with a crawler specific function mode and 6 channels, this radio easily supports additional accessories like functional winches, lights, four wheel steering, etc.

The FS-GT5 includes a 20 model memory, SVC (Traction Control) function for surface vehicles, user adjustable stability control (yaw control) ,an ABS function with 6 configurable settings making braking easier on different surfaces, bidirectional communication (which includes full telemetry, servo calibration, and i-BUS support), 140 channel frequency hopping to reduce interference from other transmitters, unique ID recognition system which allows only the bound radio/receiver to communicate with each other, Failsafe mode, and a low power consumption system, which only consumes 10% of a standard FM system. Redcat Racing is the very first North American distributor to receive the FS-GT5 Flysky radio.
