• An on/off button that must be held to turn on or off instead of the normal slider type on/off switch (no more accidental shut downs)
• ACCESS as well as ACCST D16 protocols
• A built in lithium chemistry charger. Simply plug the radio into your USB power source using the included USB cable!
• 24 Channels!
• Spectrum Analyzer
• SWR indicator warning. Know if your antenna is defective
• M9 hall sensor gimbal and upgraded switches
• PARA wireless trainer function

The new Taranis X9D+ is like a great remake of the classic. They just keep getting better. This is the third revision of the Taranis, they have kept all of the great things about the Taranis and cleaned up and refined the not so great bits. This is a radio that is ready to impress.

If you are new to the Taranis, let me tell you a bit about it. It features OpenTX firmware, this is the most powerful radio programming ever produced. If you can imagine it, chances are VERY good that this radio can do it. Things that would be impossible with other radios can be done with the Taranis. If you are coming from a menu driven radio like a (JR, Futaba, Spektrum) you will find this very different, but with a little time you should find it very easy to program and much better for complex operations like gliders or scale applications.

When it comes to the RF link quality, again this is the class leader. Great range and rock solid performance are the norm. With full telemetry feedback built right in you will never be guessing about the range of the radio system as the radio will talk to you (when optional SD card with voices is added (free to download)) to warn you of issues. This happens before a single packet of data is lost! This saves a lot of headaches and losses! Should you need even longer range, a 900 mhz module is available and simply plugs into the back of the radio. With ACCESS protocol you can run a true dual frequency (2.4 and 900) to have even great link security.

If you have a commercial application, FrSky is the most popular choice due to the added security of the ACCESS protocol, unmatched RF diversity, and telemetry features. Unlike other brands, we do not charge extra for these advanced features.

With a wide range of receivers for every application from the tiny to the huge, FrSky has you covered.
