The Last Radio You'll Need. Probably.

Another week, another FPV controller. Except this time, it’s not just a fresh coat of paint and a slightly different logo. RadioMaster decided to actually earn their paycheques and rebuilt the TX16S from the ground up. This isn't the MK2 with a new hat; it's a proper successor designed to make your old radio feel a bit, well, inadequate.

So, what's new? The highlights include an H7 processor that makes EdgeTX less sluggish, a 5-inch touchscreen that doesn’t look like it came from a 2008 sat-nav, and AGO2 CNC gimbals that feel suspiciously premium. The main event, however, is the dual-chip ExpressLRS setup. That means true Gemini X capability right out of the box. No dongles, no fuss, just proper dual-band redundancy.

Frankly, words are a bit overrated. If you prefer moving pictures and a soothing voice explaining all the buttons and bleeps, we’ve got you covered. Sit back and absorb the details without the hassle of, you know, reading.

If you’ve made it this far, you’re clearly interested. The TX16S MK3 is for the pilot who wants one controller that does everything without compromise. For the full, exhaustive breakdown of why this might be the last radio you buy for a while, check out our full review. Or, if you’re already convinced, you can just buy the thing and get on with it.
