Mr.D - Falling with style | FrSky X20S - First look, overview, and thoughts @MrD | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 12 hours ago
In this video we unbox the new FrSky Tandem X20S transmitter. We see what features are on the radio and take a quick look at ETHOS. This is not an in depth look, nor a comparison to OpenTX. I'll be covering those, and my experiences in future videos.
A couple of things I missed in the video, due to the corrupted video file:
- The transmitter comes with a 4000mAh 2S LiPo
- The transmitter comes with a 4GB class 10 microSD card
** In the video **
- 6 button switch issue github.com/FrSkyRC/ETHOS-Feedback-Community/issues/153
- Crossfire & Ghost github.com/FrSkyRC/ETHOS-Feedback-Community/issues/5#issuecomment-839613220
