I’m building my first quad-copter with Pixhawk 4 and F450 frame. I bought an ESP32 based WiFi telemetry module to save some money and mostly because I’ll be flying line of sight for a few months until I’m skilled enough. Suddenly a thought clicked: I’ll be using a Flysky i6x transmitter and FSiA10B receiver which operate on 2.4 GHz…Will the telemetry module cause interference with the Tx Rx causing dropouts or loss of control?
Not in my experience. I use those radios on several craft some with 2.4Ghz RC.
Note that I don’t have Flysky gear so no idea how it will perform with its protocol.
Line of site for these radios is 100m max at best.
And, if you haven’t bought that frame yet consider something else.
Hardware to avoid
Thank you for your reply!
Yes I already got the frame. It costs around $10 and is allegedly made of Nylon+Glass fiber. Should I discard it and buy the carbon fiber s500? Is it that bad? My copter’s total weight will be around 900-1000 gms.
They are terrible. I hate to see a new builder use those frames. But, if you have no other choice (options, $$, whatever) that total weight is within it’s capabilities.
Got a link for the S500?
The S500 is mentioned as carbon fiber but in the description it’s written as Nylon and Fiberglass. Even the Holybro S500 which is priced twice as much is also Nylon and Fiberglass.
