Turnigy Evolution Review

Good or Bad?

Justin takes the Turnigy Evolution

through its paces


A few things I forgot to cover in the video:

RSSI – I did notice when I chopped the antennas off that the controller beeped, but I didn’t get the beeping when I did the range test letting me know I was running out of range. It just got sketchy and then dropped.

Battery Voltage monitoring – you can (with the stock RX that comes with it) set your evolution up to start beeping at you when you reach a certain battery level. You just have to connect the right wires to your PDB or wherever you have your battery leads connected to and it will monitor it for you and alert you when your battery reaches that level.

Timer – You can set the timer to a switch, such as your arm, but not to your throttle.

Screen & menu & binding – It’s touch screen and the menu is stupid simple. As is the binding process. Don’t sweat it just glance at the manual.

Alternative RX (Much smaller, but I haven’t confirmed it works yet): http://m.banggood.com/Flysky-FS-A8S-2…
