Please help with receiver and transmitter

Hi guys,
Im new to this and its my first build. I have got everything fixed up and placed on my frame correct that I can see. The problem is I cant for the life of me figure out how to make my transmitter talk to my receiver in cleanflight. I have them bound correctly together, but I think its a wiring issue, that being I have no clue which wires go where. I have chosen a cheaper transmitter and receiver for my first build, but I would still think it would work ok. Its a Goolrc OEM Gc6, which seems similar to the Flysky FS-i6. Im trying to connect it to my spracing f3 evo board and cannot get it to talk. I dont know what Im supposed to use(ppm, pwm, serial?). Can anyone help me please, on where I wire from my fc board to my receiver and what setting I should use in cleanflight to get it to communicate. Thanks so much for anyones help, I was so excited to build my first fpv drone, but this part has puzzled and frustrated me.

Hey Bradley......

That receiver is a rebranded Flysky FS-iA6. As such it does not support PPM. Looking at your FC I think you need PPM. You might check it out further but I think you "should" be able to use a FS-iA6B receiver for PPM. Once you get that Rx you should be able to turn on PPM in the Rx with your transmitter(after binding).

This might help. Don't be fooled by the "Turnigy" branding. It's the same Tx and Rx........

Thanks so much for your help, I ordered a FS-iA6B receiver and it will be here today. I will post back and let you know how it goes

You shouldn't have jumped the gun. Flysky has come out with many newer, more advanced designs; smaller, lighter and with better antenna mounting (easily replaceable.)

This is one is only 4.5 grams vs. 15 grams for the i6B.

There are many F3s out there but there is a good chance you can use PWM with your existing RX. This guy does.


And there is Painless' vid.

Will that x6b work with my current transmitter or would I need to get another one?
