Tx/Rx compatibility
Hi Folks
ive come back into rc after a fair break. I have a Flysky ct6b tx, a Turnigy 9x tx and an original rx for each. Theres also an assortment of orange r615x receivers and spectrum receivers.
does anybody have a list/table of what will bind with what (and maybe other brands as well?
Thanks for any help. Stay safe and well!

Welcome to the world of incompatibility. I think I saw a spreadsheet once with that information, but the manufacturer's planned obsolescence programs made the spreadsheet obsolete. It's so bad even staying with one manufacturer doesn't help. FlySky and Turnigy use a version of AFHDS but different versions aren't compatible. (AFHDS, AFHDS 2A, AFHDS 3). For example, your ctb6 has AFHDS while your 9x has AFHDS 2A. Your orange receiver is Spektrum DSM2DSMX compatible but even Spektrum has gone the way of newer, incompatible protocols. Ah profits.
On the plus side most of the cheap Chinese receivers sold by Banggood, HobbyKing, Banana Hobby and the other cheap online RC stores have AFHDS or AFHDS 2A so you have a transmitter that will work with them. Before buying a receiver always determine what protocol it uses. Otherwise, you may increase your already "assortment" of useless receivers.
OTOH, you could do what many here suggest and buy an expensive multi-protocol transmitter.

"Unless" I still want to use those many old receivers I spent a lot of money on years ago. Which, I think, is the point of this thread.
