Our latest blog post has taken a deep dive into the rather exciting world of RadioMaster transmitters—because who wouldn’t want to spend their spare time pondering over gadgetry, am I right? We’ve laid out a buying guide that sorts these beauties by use case and price, to prevent you from becoming afflicted with the dreaded gadgetitis. In short, while there are cheap simulator controllers about, if you’re planning to venture into the real skies, your best bet is a compact TX15 or the extravagant TX16S Mk3.
For those looking for a wallet-friendly starter, the T8L offers decent gimbals for just about £40, although you’ll be blessed with limited configuration options—ideal as a hand-me-down or for the occasional simulated jaunt. The Pocket variant comes in at around £60–£70, boasting a folding antenna and full EdgeTX config, albeit with a small screen that may leave you squinting for details.
Now, if you’re after something that won’t have you feeling like you’ve just strapped a brick to your back, consider the TX15 or Boxer. Both provide an ergonomic grip and sensible switch layouts, making them an excellent long-term investment. For those who yearn for long-range escapades, anything sporting the 900 MHz capability—like the TX16S Mk3, TX15, or GX12—will serve you well in the wild expanses of the sky. And let’s not ignore the stars of the show: the TX16S Mark III, which is practically a Swiss army knife of radios, offering features aplenty if you’re okay with carrying a bit of extra weight.
