Turnigy 9XR General

Flaps 30 · Post by **Flaps 30** » Sat Apr 07, 2012 2:54 pm

I noticed that Hobbyking has mentioned that the 9X will be replaced later this year by the 9XR.. Any clues as to what the differences might be? Of course I expect a higher price to be set on these, as the 9X is far too cheap.

Got a link to this info? Only thing I can find is a vague reference to 9xr on a discussion about the radjet. Nothing about it being a radio coming this year.

Found it on their twitter feed

"Bixler difficult to stock and 9X will be replaced by 9XR later this year (worth the wait, trust me)"

@Lobstermash Bixler difficult to stock and 9X will be replaced by 9XR later this year (worth the wait, trust me)
--------------------

thats the original msg, all they say is it worth the wait... but now we need know more, probably flysky got some info about it as its the manufacturer of it
but no new radio models in his web yet.

There's no info. Just that single Twitter message.

i contacted FlySky and they have no new 9channels radio to release,
so i am puzzled, i have no idea what is going to be the 9XR

Post by **jhsa** » Mon Apr 09, 2012 6:23 am

maybe the new radio from frsky? I've read somewhere that they might be working on a tx...

Since the 9x is Turnigy branded, they can switch to a supplier that can meet their projected demands. Since walkera has released some sweet touch screen colour (color for our american friends) this may be on the horizon, but who knows.
Flysky may not be the supplier, they could manufacture it themselves, or get it from another supplier.

flysky is the supplier and manufacturer of the 9x without any doubt,
if flysky is not going tu release a new version, that means to me 9XR will be another radio then, will not be an improvement of it as it looks like when reading the name.

just wait and see...

HK said they will put pictures late this month of 9xr,

Maybe it has "R" firmware?

@numanair module based with inbuilt 2.4 antenna plus options for FASST, DSMX & long range 433mhz plus it looks & feels much nicer.

Big question here...

Does this mean that all the flysky radios will change to this version? Will it be the same chassis etc..

Who knows!

Post by **Kilrah** » Tue Apr 10, 2012 8:23 pm

Or that it will be 10 times more powerful than ERSKY9X, with plug and play DSM/FASST etc modules for $60?

jaas75 · Post by **jaas75** » Tue Apr 10, 2012 9:56 pm

lol, kilra.
i guess we can dream!!!!

by theway im very excited about ersky9x im just waiting it gets out of beta testing.
uhmmm probly the ersky board is going to be out of testing by the time this 9xr transmitter gets out and we can fitted inside.

Drondys · Post by **Drondys** » Wed Apr 11, 2012 9:25 am

Or one a special RF module switched from the firmware menu between many systems as FRSkY, FASST, DSMX etc.

Color touch screen, voice output, built-in support for SD cards with a firmware upgrade from SD or even telemetry data logging on SD etc., Hall sensors instead of all mechanical potentiometers.

And all of that's a price of around $ 100.

This is a wery big dreams.

Other than the color touch screen..... ersky9x. It's not a dream... and it's only $85.

I think even more than your list is possible.... you didn't mention blue tooth logging to a PC or Cell Phone, or 3 PPM outputs so you could drive frsky,dsm and whatever else all at the same time.
The software guys have an open play ground.

Quote from Ah himself regarding the progress on the 9xR. You can't say the guy isn't ambitious!

It will use the atmega chip and can be flashed with your existing customised software. In fact, it comes standard with a similar rom to one you have mentioned.

We wont be sending out eval units because we have done alot of testing in house already and its unfair to make customers wait for further evaluations.

O goody o goody. I haven't been this excited since my wedding day. (the first one).

jaas75 · Post by **jaas75** » Fri Apr 13, 2012 12:22 am

at least we know that its compatible with er9x "can be flashed with your existing customised software".
Time will tell if its more powerfull than ersky9x. but my bets are all to ers9x??
Besides to a color touchscreen what else can u ask for ersky.

By theway guys a Good color screen cuz the old touchscreen technology of late 90tys (the cheap touchscrns of today) was BADDDD. so bad sometimes that its better to just continue using the "old way"

wallaguest1 · Post by **wallaguest1** » Fri Apr 13, 2012 1:18 am

it comes standard with a similar rom to one you have mentioned. <----------- similar? or they get er9x and modify it a bit? thats weird..

if the rom is so similar then probably its not a touch screen
lets see if they post just a single image to see it at least...

Post by **jhsa** » Fri Apr 13, 2012 1:43 pm

Maybe they just did put a more powerfull atmega on the board and kept the rest the same.. I mean the connections to the processor must be the same to be able to be fully compatible.. Also, perhaps it comes already with the LED backlight installed, the telemetry mod done and a built in programmer inside. Now, this sounds a bit more realistic.

And it would be very nice.. Who knows maybe they're following these threads.. Keep dreaming

Post by **Crucial** » Fri Apr 13, 2012 2:48 pm

It seems too good to be true. It is what we were saying they should have done all along. Build a quality hardware base that is open for the open source guys to develop software for.

Post by **jhsa** » Fri Apr 13, 2012 3:33 pm

who knows?? maybe they are reading what we write..

Post by **MikeB** » Fri Apr 13, 2012 6:23 pm

The 9XR has a pin-out in the battery compartment for easier custom firmware flashing without needing to open the case.

It will use the atmega chip and can be flashed with your existing customised software. In fact, it comes standard with a similar rom to ER9x.
