@jackmaddox4960 Жыл бұрын

The comfort of the traditional form factor in slightly reduced size that makes the Boxer appealing is exactly why I chose the Frsky X9 Lite Pro a couple years ago; it has the hall sensor gimbals, good quality switches & controls, and the screen, while not great, is good enough. But the size/shape/ergos are perfect for me, and all the rest I can modify to suit my needs. Currently I'm using the Happymodel ES24TX Slim ExpressLRS module (the one with the Iron Man' design), and it works like a champ! I've also got a 4-in-1 module that I was going to mount internally, with an additional mini toggle to switch between it and the ELRS module in the bay. But almost everything I run uses ELRS now, plus I've recently installed the Deviation OS into a Walkera Devo-10 which will let me fly all those obscure BNF models that the 4-in-1 is for, and it's a decent radio. I don't mind having a second one for those, since I only ever run those oddball little craft (and cars) at home, so only taking the X9 Lite with me when heading out to the field. Still, the Boxer is nice, and if I didn't already have my ideal radio, I'd definitely be looking hard at it! Great review, Bardwell, as always, I'm humbled by your knowledge, your channel is THE source for info!

Just replaced my old trusty, crossfire modded Qx7. I had M7 and M7-R gimbals there, silicon skin, metal stand, custom stick ends, tracer module. Ordered the ELRS Boxer, instantly fell in love with it the moment I held it. That controller has so much going on for it. Yes! the form factor is so much more comfortable compared to ANY other radio I have held. The gimbals feel smooth, the switches feel clicky, The battery lasts such a long time. EdgeTX lets you customize the start/stop delay where you have to hold the button forever, which I hate on OpenTX. All in all, the Boxer makes me enjoy flying a lot more.

I got the Jumper T-lite as my first radio and I think I'll switch to this once I have the money to spare. Definitely feels like a decent compromise between an old-school and a gamepad-style radio while also delivering some welcome new features. 1000mW ELRS internally is just too good to be true.

@simonlangley8069 11 ай бұрын

Me too. I have the Jumper t-lite, mainly because it's shaped like a game controller which I'm familiar with and it was cheap. I had correctly gathered that flying an fpv drone is pretty difficult and I wanted to make sure I was actually capable of flying a drone before I spent £1000 on equipment. I've played with Velocidrone for about 25 hours and It seems that I am probably likely to be able to control a real drone so it's time to start thinking about what I'll buy for real drone use. The Boxer looks spot on.

The TX16S is right for me, I like the colorful touch screen, I like the shape and size of it, and it's impressive look!😂 The Boxer is the first non-TX16S radio I've even considered switching to since I bought TX16S. I would probably benefit from the powerful ELRS module, and if it fits my hands as well as it fits JB's then that's compelling! But I'd have to get used to the boxy, slightly duller look of it, and the smaller screen. I hope they come out with premium versions of it with color options, like the TX16S! Time will tell, but right now if I upgrade I'll probably go for a TX16S with carbon fiber, and an ELRS internal module! As always, great Review JB, I'm pretty sure you answered all the questions I had about it!

@PerceptionFPV Жыл бұрын

Yeah pretty much the same I just ordered the tx16s jb and right after that the boxer came out and for a moment I was worried I made the Wrong decision and thought about sending it back but I have big hands and I’m a pincher and on top the purple accents and the color screen are just to cool to give up, so definitely gonna choose the tx16s

@ingrownnipple Жыл бұрын

I think it would have been a win for me if they made a more "premium" version of it. keep the touch screen, improve the ergonomics of the tx16s. Or really if they just made the Tx16s shorter and kept everything else the same I'd be really happy. maybe get rid of the toggles on the top for push buttons like this and I would buy one immediately

@rcrotorfreak Жыл бұрын

I still not sure if it's even a upgrade to replace x9d. But then again I'm a helicopter and planes flyer. x9d is still a great radio. I think it would be a downgrade. Upgrade would be x9d to Radio Master tx16s. I own Taranis but love better tx16s due to color screen. It's also touch screen. Taranis still a great radio. Still have lot of switches, slider. And it is louder. That is a big boo for tx16s. Another thing I couldn't sync sound to boot screen. What I mean is I couldn't delay the boot screen. It boot's up fairly fast to the ui and with Taranis there was a delay feature that is adjustible. But this new radio looks great. I bet feels lot better then Tx16s. Tx16s I got use to it but it's huge. I have to reach farther then Taranis or Futaba 14sg. But this is good fairly good can do so much then many spektrum or most when it comes to programing and modification.

@rcrotorfreak Жыл бұрын

@kylechang8610 Жыл бұрын

Let me give you a run down from a drone pilot... So i upgraded from using the x9d with m9s for 5 years (since 2017) to the tx16s Let me start by saying the gimbals are a whole heck of a lot better. I didn't expect this to be the case since I bought the m9s and the gimbals I use are the v1s of this gimbal, but they feel so much more smooth and the throw is more. The ergonomics made me love this radio. Even though its just a box, the way they put the sliders compared to the x9d (I hated the sliders on that thing cause my fingers would go on top of them and feel super awkward) was amazing. my fingers split to the sides so i dont feel it at all (I pinch/hybrid grip) The battery life is crzy using the 5000mah LIion from RM, and considering this has a 6200mah and is a b&w screen should be so much better. so basically I didnt expect it to be this good, but it is -Better gimbals -Better ergonomics I'm thinking of getting the boxer since I don't need the color screen (and frankly i never wanted it) but I use the top left shoulder switch for arming so I would have to get used to having it moved I also only have a mark I tx16s so having an internal elrs module would be very nice

Different USB ports for Sim and charging is a great thing. Lipo lifespan reduces drastical when charged to 100% for a long time. Playing on a sim would lead to that when it is the same port for charging. The boxer can charge the lipo to 90% and then play on the sim and simply turn off the TX afterwards without the need for storage charging it afterwards or seeing the max capacity shrink down the weeks afterwards.

I came from DJI RC1, which comes with the gimbals super light, and crashed a lot while getting used to the stock gimbals and the AG01's. Also, anything with the M3 stick ends, is hard to get a good fat cylindrical stick end for. I ended up creating my own and printing them. If you're flying with a lanyard, the stick to bottom distance will be a big change to get used to.

Does it feel kinda like the QX-7? I just bought the TX-16 because my X-7 gave up, I may have bought the boxer if it had been out, but I do like the touch color screen. A boxer with a color touch screen, and better switches would have been nice.

Most of your comments regarding ergonomics and switchology also apply to the TX12 MkII. What's the antenna you have on the Boxer? Is that an upgrade to the little stick types that come on many other radios, including the TX12. I'm asking because I wonder if I'll want to upgrade the one on my TX12.

Can you do a quick side by side (size) comparison of the Boxer radio and the TX12? After more consideration. I think I like the boxer better than the TX12 only because of the potentiometers. I'm thinking the left shoulder switch @ 8:00 would make a good "Air Mode" switch. That strap on the back.????? For real?!

That left index finger toggle button looks perfect for controlling turtle mode.

Looks great, but sticking with my Mambo despite it’s quality challenges. One of the big wins with Mambo is that you don’t need an antenna. Small radio, big sticky out antenna.

Internally seems to be a ufl connector, will convert my boxer to internal once it arrive.

I have not used Radiomaster transmitters. Can you purchase this Boxer TX in the 4in1 configuration (for my Spektrum aircraft) and plug in the ELRS module to work with FPV/ELRS pre-built quads?

Yes you can

Sold. My Zorro with the 1w module and 5000mah battery strapped onto it just doesn't feel the greatest. This has that all built in.

Is it possible to fit somehow a real switch instead that shoulder buttons? I use my old Jumper T12 Pro and I love that switches. I use the left one as my arm switch and the right as a turtle mode. This Boxer looks nice, but I can't use a radio without those switches.

same gimbals as tx16s? my orriginal gimbals worn out pretty fast, i did learn fpv on a beach lol, bad idea i know i fell in love with the AG01 gimbals, they rly do make you a smoother flying pilot. i might considder this one for next summer if they incl ag01gimbals RLY like the shoulderbuttons

I'll still take the TX16S with an external module for a daily drone flyer (and the X20 for fixed wing) but can see how this could be very appealing to a LOT of ppl.

@rcrotorfreak Жыл бұрын

Why x20 for fixed wing vs Tx16s? I ask because I'm a fixed wing flyer and helicopter flyer. Tx16s is great all around. I myself would chose tx16s vs this radio. I Just hope Radio Master don't get rid of radio like Tx16s because they been focusing to much on drone pilot. Like for example this doesn't have slider, have those push button on top right and left.

FrSky X20 is a work of art, best constructive quality among the countless radios I've tried and the operation is rock solid. You are very well served.

@felipehol1 Жыл бұрын

@@rcrotorfreak In my humble opinion, x20 is another level of radio, just test the sliders and you will see they (x20 x tx16s) don't play in the same league. In more detail: the screen has higher resolution and brightness, the switches are of better quality, the processor is much stronger and the constructive quality in general is also superior.

left press switch could be for throttle cut, right momentary switch could be for panic button... im a brand new noob, havent bought a plane yet. i wanted to start with an end all transmitter then get planes.
