Thanks for the insight. I suppose I will have to try them and hope for the best.

Received my NB4 Wed from Hobbymate Hobby $196.00 with DHL shipping in 18 days to TN. it came with the latest firmware and the Fgr4 V2 Fgr4s V2 receivers. Installed it in my 3racing sakura advance 20M and ran it that night at our local indoor black carpet track and WOW this is by far the best radio I have owned. I wasn't any faster but much more consistent lap times. I highly recommend this radio to anyone looking to upgrade 😊👍

I've been thinking about bulk purchasing from alibaba about 10 transmitters. Would anyone be interested in purchasing one if I did?

whats the price going to be?

The supplier that I've reached out to says that they only come with one FGR4P receiver, so keep that in mind with the cost.
I'm still talking to them and don't have a final price yet, but my base price is $105 per unit. I would be willing to sell to members here who are not going to resell them for cost plus shipping. I'm guessing that the all-in price is going to be around $160 or so. (Base Price, plus shipping to states, plus shipping to Buyer) Obviously, the overseas shipping cost would be divided by the 10 units.

So the vendor that I was working with started putting the invoice together and discovered that they had mistakenly given me the wrong price per unit. The actual price per unit would have been $155. So my cost would have been $173.50 per unit to my door. Not a whole lot of margin for me to flip, so I've decided not to complete the order. It might be worth while if someone didn't want to wait for hobbyking or the like to get it back in stock.

Here is a video from a hobbyist that goes through using the import/export "FlySky Assistant" utility to import and export model from your NB4. (the forum is stripping out the timestamp, so go to the 3:18 mark)

I just jumped onto the NB4 Bandwagon. I ordered from HobbyMate on the 14th and it arrived today. I want to dislike this radio, but initial impressions are positive. I have long been a Futaba loyalist and still use a 3PKS for module flexibility. I have not purchased a new radio since the 4PKS, although I briefly dabbled with the Spektrum DX5R. The NB4 is on par with the solid feel of my 3PKS and easily surpasses the materials quality of any Spektrum radio. Time will tell concerning the durability of the receivers and software reliability. I have a few Mini-Z Evo boards on order for the Noble.

The bottom line is that I was between this radio and a new 7PXR. The PXR was more radio than I need at three times the price. I am happy to give this platform a try, it is on an entirely different level than the GT3B of old.

Make sure that once you get your radio setup and bound with all your receivers, that you export them with the utility so that you don't have to rebind everything on the next software update. You'll only have to import them.

There were some bugs in the early firmware and the first version of the receivers could have issues but with V2 receivers and the new firmware it's rock solid.

Hello everyone..
I am running the 2.0.85fcc high power firmware and everything is working perfect. Did you guys found any bugs or issues with the 2.0.85fcc firmware?

Hi,
has anybody tested the FGr8B receiver? I found something quite interesting, in the description of that receiver, it's says, it is compatible to "NB4 / NB4 lite". So are there any rumors that there will be a "lite" version of the NB4?

Andreas

There is a lite version of the NB4 that I've seen on the Chinese forums.

The highlights of the Transmitter differences as far as I can tell are as follows.

The bottom base doesn't have a battery.

Firmware for the lite will be separate from the NB4 firmware. There will be no physical difference aside from the battery in the base is missing. There will be restrictions within the software, however. As near as I can tell, the number of models that can bound to it and the number of channels that it will support is restricted.

The unit will be called the FG4-Lite or Noble Lite.

Declaration of conformity

Retail for the USA is going to be different price-wise because of the cost of shipping. In China, the cost of the NB4 is 144 USD whereas the Lite is 76USD. The difference in retail between China and the USA is 36, so add 36 to the lite and it could be 112 USD.

I've reached out to flysky for comment along with questions on sensors that are compatible with the NB4. I'll update you if I hear anything.

If you are running it on version 2 hardware, then it's pretty solid. No major or minor bugs to my knowledge.

Yoh mean 1.2 hw version or 2.0 hw version?
What does your version say?

Mine is 1.2 version.
