From what I have heard no FS-GT5 is AFHDS2A (I.e. FS-A3) only FS-GT3C is AFHDS (i.e. FS-GR3E, FS-GR3F etc.) says AFHDS2A in the manual aslo http://www.redcatracing.com/manuals/...2020170914.pdf

I’ve had one for a couple of months. I have no complaints. Have been so impressed that I’m considering a FS Noble when they get to US distributors someday.

So im im thing about getting this one for my bashers, and a noble for my racers. Hows the latency compared to radiolink rc6gs and flysky gt3c?

Interested in picking a few of these up for my kids as their primary transmitter. Does anyone know what other receivers beyond the one it comes with are compatible with it?

Also I see a rebranded Turnigy/Hobbyking that seems to be the same transmitter and receiver, is it truly just the same radio rebranded or are there any differences with hardware or compatibility.

Thanks for that. This must be an older chart because the BS6 it comes with is not on it and missing the NB4 Transmitter I also have as well.

Also confusingly when I see listings for the BS6, it's marked as AFHD2S which according to the above chart shouldn't be compatible with the GT5.

This chart still doesn't have the BS6 but seems a little newer.

Great radio at a great price.

Couldn't be happier with my GT5. Latency is definitely an upgrade from the Flysky gt3c. A huge plus.
Features are plentiful as already described. Will use this as my basher/not serious racer radio.


​​​​For a serious racing radio, id id choose a flysky noble nb4 or sanwa m12 and up

Only thing missing on the gt5 is a lipo and thats it.
