The engineers at Turnigy have come up with another winner, the Turnigy Evolution. Designed with the FPV Drone flier squarely in mind, the Evolution features a striking new look and is amazingly compact. Its small size makes it very backpack friendly and the neat cover for the front of the controller keeps the face and gimbals safe during transportation. The Evolution uses the solid and reliable 8 channel 2.4GHz Automatic Frequency Hopping Digital System (AFHDS 2A) spread spectrum technology, making it compatible with the iA6, iA6B, iA6C, i10 & i10B range of receivers. The system is supplied with the Turnigy TGY-iA6C Receiver for SBUS/IBUS and CPPM/PWM support. A large monochrome backlit LCD Touch screen makes it easy to program and change the settings in both daylight and night-time. 5 model memories make it easy when swapping from one model to next by simply selecting the appropriate model memory (assuming that you've bound the next receiver to the particular model memory first!) Each transmitter and receiver has its own unique ID to prevent other RC systems from accidentally connecting to or interfering with the Evolution. Each transmitter hops between 16 channels in order to reduce interference from other transmitters. There is even a mini USB port for easy charging via a power bank (power pack) or phone charger / USB charger / PC. This can also be used for updates (via PC) or to use the Evolution transmitter as a controller for your favorite RC simulator programs. Features: SBUS/IBUS and CPPM/PWM support 5 Model Memory Backlit LCD Screen 4 Stick Mode Selection USB port for Flight Simulators USB changing Included: 1 x Turnigy Evolution 1 x TGY-iA6C Receiver (with leads) 1 x Micro USB Cable 1 x User Manual

Great compact transmitter with nice gimbals, feel and portability.
I really like this transmitter and it has become on of my favorites for my tiny whoop class racers. The range is great for indoors and I've had no issues with dropouts or glitches and the response is great. Also the portability of this transmitter is unmatched and comes with a cover to protect the gimbals during transportation.Pros1) Portability2) Feel/comfort3) Look4) Customization (LED colors)5) Multiple profile capabilities (5 max but can piggy back multiple craft on same profile)Cons1) Limited to 5 profiles (can bind more craft by piggy backing profiles)2) Limited receiver options (Turnigy & FlySky)3) No external module support (TBS crossfire etc.)4) Internal antennas may limit penetration of obstructions

Difficult to upgrade firmware; but beautiful.
Love the look and feel of this transmitter; but it is nearly impossible to update the firmware on any of my machines... From Mac OS to Windows... Probably something on my end (antivirus/firewall/etc...) But I could not get the update to work.I get a constant beep out of the transmitter that is either voltage or RSSI. When bound and monitoring in Betaflight; the sticks are slightly jumpy with a random roll jump.Again... These can very well be user error; I have only my experience with Frsky and Spektrum to compare and those are smooth as pie. If there was more info/better manual and an easier way to upgrade the firmware; I would have given a better rating.

Left stick binds a bit
The form factor is perfect. But, I do wish it had more switches and not the dumb pot. Who in the quad world uses that anyway?The range is great but, my radio for some reason has a bad gimbal. When I yaw left, the roughness of the stick increases and I can hear and feel a slight click as I reach the endpoint. I don't like the feeling of uneven resistance in my stick travel.For this reason I don't use the radio and keep it for friend who may want to fly a whoop to try it out. Overall, I do recommend!

Neat radio
I received this radio as a gift, I really like it. The interface is easy to use; it feels "right" (you don't event think about it when you're using it). I need to buy some new receivers so I can use this radio more often - it came with an "IA6" (I think...) -- it's big but the combo works fine for me.

It’s a very small comfortable transmitter. The throttle gimbal doesnt center itself well ...
It’s a very small comfortable transmitter. The throttle gimbal doesnt center itself well and it throws off the trim by 10-15 clicks which is a lot for a new piece of equipment which is why I gave it 4 stars.

Great controller if you want a small, light, easily portable FlySky transmitter.
