How to boot info firmware update mode: Push both the two inner horizontal trim buttons together and power on the radio at the same time.

Shutdown

The FlySky FS-i6X does not have a software-controlled shutdown button. If you see a ▫ (small square) icon in the top-right corner of the main screen, wait until it disappears, as it indicates that settings are still being saved. Alternatively, you can use the "Save settings" option from the main screen's popup menu to:

  • Speed up the saving process.
  • Save timers (timers are not saved automatically).
  • Save changes while USB is connected (settings are not saved automatically when USB is connected).

Powering by 2S Li-Po/Li-ion/18650

FlySky i6X is officially rated for up to 6V. Running anything above will damage your radio.

Mode 1 & Mode 3 radios
