FrSky Taranis X-Lite Review
So the X-Lite has finally arrived and we’re going to take a look at this gamepad-styled TX. Is it worth the 120-140 bucks that they ask for? Is it just for quads or can you actually use this as your main transmitter for planes and similar? And is OpenTX even usable by a normal human, considering it’s open source and all that?
Read on after the break for the full review!

Fans of the Turnigy Evolution rejoice! The FrSky X-Lite seems to be shaping up to be an excellent new controller-style TX, as these gorgeous new shots show:
FrSky X-Lite RC Transmitter for FPV Race Pilots
It was only a matter of time before the form factor of the Turnigy Evolution caught on. Styled after console controllers, these are the perfect blend of RC flying and gaming. After the iRangeX multi-protocol transmitter came out recently, FrSky have announced their version of a new ergonomic transmitter for FPV pilots, the X-Lite.
We don’t have much info beyond the fact that it runs OpenTX, which means the UI should be snappy and streamlined. The battery on the X-Lite is said to be replaceable, and it has a dual antenna setup (one internal, one external). In addition to supporting USB, MicroSD cards and featuring a headphone output, the X-Lite is said to also support external transmitter modules… somehow. The LCD is 128×64, so not exactly a giant screen – not that such a transmitter needs it.
Oh and the X-Lite is reported to feature hall effect gimbals (!)
Right now Banggood.com has a placeholder offer with a fantasy price of 999 dollars, but the actual street price is rumored to be around 120 USD. If this is true, then this could be a breakthrough product. We don’t expect this to be a full range transmitter, but here’s hoping.
We’ll update this post as we learn more.
FrSky X12D and X16D
Dying for a transmitter with a bigger screen? FrSky is here to quench that particular thirst, with several new models that obviously expand on the theme of larger color screens on transmitters. More technical info after the break.
