Looking forward to your results. I've mentioned before that I have run out of range while using my antennaless RX and did want to try and measure my antenna RX to compare. Don't recall if I mentioned it a page or two ago or not but last I went out with my SkyRC GPS meter things didn't go well because the numbers didn't make sense. What I do know is that I drove my Savage Flux farther than I had any business driving it before I decided to drive it back to me. I was using my enchanced RX. I've mentioned that, at least on my Pro, I use 2way/2channel mode to achieve the best of both worlds in terms of latency and telemetry. Gotta have my telemetry.

Installed, set up sub trim / end points for steering and initially calibrated the ESC; braking only slowed it down and didn't actually stop it. It didn't brake aggressively as the stock RTR transmitter did. Drove great for what little I was able to drive before thunderstorms and lightening showed up. Didn't get a chance to check the range; hopefully tonight.
I changed the ESC brake strength to step 5 / 75%; seems bizarre that the default ESC Brake Strength was 37.5%, because the stock RTR SLT3 transmitter, the brake was very aggressive on my Typhon 6S on default setup 2 / 37.5%.
Update, brakes work great on step 5. Range test tonight.

Multiple runs from one end of my street to the other, down and back; 185 meters; FGr4 V2 (antennae). No issues.
One way protocol / FCC firmware.

Be aware that the FGr4 receiver is very large and won't fit in some radio boxes. I've used the smaller FGr4S (internal antenna) and the smaller FGr4P (external antenna) for racing nitro buggy and haven't had any kind of range issues with either one.

Yea, the FG4r V2 barely fit in my Typhon V5 6S 1/8 scale buggy. I also ordered the FG4rB but it's so small I decided to keep it for something else since the FG4r V2 fit.

If Flysky had such plans, they probably would've introduced the C port with the Pro version of the NB4. I dare say there is zero plans for a C port in the NB4 line. I perfer USB C but how much of an issue is a Micro usb port? I leave the cable on my charge hub and it's a non issue.

Has anyone purchased a NON PRO Version of the NB4 lately? Can you confirm if they fixed the deadzone on the NON pro version as I have read some post on youtube that some users have not experienced this same deadzone that was brought up in the Youtube video review.

Also very good point, if they were, it woulda been on the pro

Well that is why I am asking because that video from Razor RC shows it has a small deadzone in the steering, and some issue with the Steering EXPO setting not being linear. So I wanted to see if that was corrected as I have seen post on youtube that some Non Pro owners do no have this deadzone. So I am seeing mixed feedback.

What are the differences between Noble and Noble Pro? Wireless charging and how do old receivers work?
