The Flysky FS-i6 is a 2.4GHz 6-channel AFHDS 2A RC transmitter in Mode 2 (left-hand throttle), suited to fixed-wing aircraft, gliders, helicopters, and FPV drones. It uses the AFHDS 2A (Automatic Frequency Hopping Digital System 2nd Generation) protocol with dual 26mm antennas for reliable link quality across a control range of up to 500 metres. Available with the IA6 receiver, the IA6B receiver (standard or retail box packaging), or as a transmitter-only option for buyers who already own a compatible AFHDS 2A receiver. EU plug configuration.

The IA6B is the recommended receiver for most buyers — it adds iBUS serial output over the IA6, enabling cleaner single-cable connection to compatible flight controllers. The IA6 remains a valid choice for pure PWM/PPM servo setups. ±5% tolerance on all stated specifications.
Not Best For: Pilots requiring more than 6 channels, long-range FPV operations beyond 500m, or bidirectional telemetry display at the transmitter — consider the Flysky FS-i6X for those requirements. The FS-i6 is also Mode 2 only in this listing; Mode 1 buyers should look for a Mode 1 configuration. Not compatible with non-AFHDS 2A Flysky receivers or other brands’ receivers without a third-party module.
Inventory & Project Guarantee: The IA6 (Mode 2), IA6B Box, and No RX variants are currently in very limited stock (3–8 units). If you require multiple units or are equipping a team or club, contact us before ordering to confirm availability. The IA6B standard variant is well-stocked.
Receiver Options: IA6 (PWM/PPM), IA6B (PWM/iBUS/PPM), IA6B retail box, or No RX
Why the FS-i6
AFHDS 2A reliability at an accessible price point: The FS-i6 brings Flysky’s second-generation frequency hopping digital system to a 6-channel budget, offering better interference rejection than fixed-frequency 2.4GHz systems without the cost of a full 10-channel transmitter.
Dual 26mm antennas: The dual-antenna design improves link consistency across varied aircraft orientations compared to single-antenna systems — a practical advantage for fixed-wing aircraft at the limits of their flight envelope.
IA6B iBUS output: When paired with the IA6B receiver, the FS-i6 gains iBUS serial connectivity — a single-cable connection to compatible flight controllers rather than individual PWM servo leads, simplifying wiring in multi-channel installations.
Online firmware update: The FS-i6 supports firmware updates, allowing improvements and compatibility additions without hardware replacement — a useful longevity feature for a budget transmitter.
392g weight: Lightweight for extended flying sessions, with an ergonomic form factor suited to both new pilots and experienced operators running a secondary or trainer transmitter.
Transmitter-only option: Buyers who already own an AFHDS 2A receiver can purchase the transmitter body alone, avoiding the cost of a duplicate receiver — a straightforward upgrade or replacement path.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the IA6 and IA6B? A: The IA6 provides PWM and PPM output only. The IA6B adds iBUS serial output — a single-wire connection that carries all channel data to compatible flight controllers without individual PWM servo cables. For most modern flight controller builds, the IA6B is the better choice. The IA6 remains suitable for pure PWM servo setups such as traditional fixed-wing builds.
Q: What is the IA6B Box variant? A: The IA6B Box is functionally identical to the standard IA6B variant — same receiver, same specifications. The difference is packaging: the Box variant comes in retail box packaging, making it suitable as a gift or for buyers who prefer a full retail presentation. Receiver performance is identical.
Q: Is the FS-i6 compatible with the same receivers as the FS-i6X? A: Yes. Both the FS-i6 and FS-i6X use the AFHDS 2A protocol, so they share receiver compatibility. The IA6, IA6B, and other AFHDS 2A receivers bind with both transmitters.
Q: Why is this listing Mode 2 only? A: This listing is stocked in Mode 2 (left-hand throttle) configuration only. Mode 2 is the most common convention in North America and most of Europe. If you require Mode 1, please search for a Mode 1 FS-i6 listing separately.
Q: Can I update the firmware on the FS-i6? A: Yes. The FS-i6 supports online firmware updates via the Flysky update tool. Check Flysky’s official resources for the latest firmware versions and update instructions.
Care & Storage
Batteries: The FS-i6 uses AA batteries. Remove batteries during storage to prevent leakage damage to the transmitter internals. Check battery voltage before each flying session.
Antennas: Keep the dual antennas clear during operation. Avoid pointing antenna tips directly at the aircraft — signal is weakest at the tip axis. Do not bend or force the antennas.
Receiver: Mount the IA6 or IA6B away from ESCs, carbon fibre, and battery wiring to minimise RF interference. For the IA6B, route the iBUS cable away from high-current lines.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and humidity. Prolonged UV and moisture exposure can degrade the display and PCB components.
Firmware: Update firmware via the Flysky online update tool to maintain compatibility with current receivers and access performance improvements.
Shipping & Handling
The FS-i6 transmitter and included receiver (if selected) are packed securely for international shipping. Standard tracked international shipping is included. Delivery typically takes 7–21 business days from dispatch depending on destination.
Please inspect the package upon delivery. If any component shows transit damage, contact us within 24 hours with photographs of the packaging and unit.
