Spirit FBL Review.

Can I use a DX6i with this or do I need a transmitter with more channels? I don't see how I can fit another transmitter in my budget but I need to know before I make more plans.

Yes, they have made it very friendly to 6 channel users.

In my humble opinion, the Spirit is worth the wait. I sold all my vbars and 2 Ikon/Brain units as soon as I had my fleet kitted with Spirits. If you order from HK's international warehouse you might be waiting up to a month for stuff to arrive here, even if it was in stock when you ordered it.

If you order direct from Spirit it ships from the Czech Republic.

As mentioned earlier, 5 days from the day it ships is typical if there are no public holidays in the way.

If your talking about the HK eu warehouse, it's in the Netherlands.
Delivery takes 3 working days via Parcelfarce.

Although can't grumble about their warranty.

"Warranty

• 2 year warranty for the original purchaser
• 50% discount for damage replacement of the unit"

My last Spirit order took 3 days to arrive from placing the order

I too have replaced all my Vbars with Spirit Systems. Well pleased and TBH well worth the very short wait

You won't regret it

You'll be fine, just ask any questions on the Spirit forums and you'll get a quick reply.

I have gone for one of these instead of another VBar and looks like the backorders may now be shifting.
Going to be setting up with a Jeti DS16 for the integration.
