Airplane Model icons for X20S ETHOS radios. The FrSky Tandem X20 Series is a dual-band telemetry radio system, its development has drawn on valuable feedback from FrSky's extensive customer base, experience with previous radios and introduces many new features such as a color touch screen display, underpinned by an ergonomic design that provides unprecedented comfort when held. On the RF side, FrSky has introduced a powerful and reliable TD dual-band RF system, which features the advantages of the FrSky 900MHz and 2.4GHz in one combined RF system. The TD dual-band RF system is characterized by true simultaneous dual-band remote control with telemetry, and superb end-to-end 4ms latency performance.
A completely new operating system, FrSky's Tandem X20 Series provides users with a powerful, intuitive, and flexible experience to enjoy across the entire world of RC. A Very Well Thought Through Radio Design Tandem X20 Series design has focused highly on technology, ergonomics, and user experience as follows.
The overall weight of Tandem X20 has been kept low, less than 1000 grams, by incorporating the use of light-weight materials while maintaining a strong and robust quality. The radio system comes with an 800 x 480-pixel color touch screen display on the top area of the radio which is easy to read indoors and in direct sunlight outdoors.The Tandem X20 has been complemented with 6 customizable buttons on the front case that allows for quick switching between features, ideal to be used for flight modes. Additional 2 rear momentary buttons have been introduced to provide flexibility, in the ideal position for DLG pilots launch fingers no matter if you are left or right-handed. All the trims and pots adopt the CNC metal hardware that makes the radio more endurable. The two side handle grips of Tandem X20 are made with a high-quality comfortable material, designed ergonomically to fit the hand very well.
Both hall-gimbals are well-positioned which makes the sticks very close to the grip edge allowing for ease to reach and control, also the spring tension and the stick travel (45°to 60°) can be adjusted. (S & HD versions support rotating gimbals within adjustable L/R 8°). Internal 900MHz/2.4GHz Dual-Band & External Module Bay The TD dual-band RF system combines both the features and advantages of FrSky 900MHz and 2.4GHz RF together in one system. The TD features real simultaneous dual-band long-range control with telemetry that achieves reliable end-to-end 4ms latency while maintaining a robust and high-quality signal link.
