Has anyone used this Tx and Rx combo on a mutirotor . I need 10 channels putting GPS on my mutirotor just want to know if it any good...

I need 10 channels

You sure? You basically need 4 channels to fly, a 5th will allow you to switch flight modes. So on a typical 6 channel TX you still got one left for other options.

Visually and sizewise the Turnigy seems to differ a bit from the FlySky (same manufacturer.)

They certainly have a lot of bells and whistles. That said this much more affordable model has more channels (comes with an 8 channel RX) than you'll probably need, unless of course you have some trick stuff you haven't mentioned.

Thanks for clearing that up , I was under the impression that you need a channel for each individual action.

4 channels to fly
1 channel for flight modes
1 channel for location finding
1 channel for GPS hold and GPS Return to Home
So in total I just need 7 channels hahah thanks; can this configuration can work?
I will like to get CPPM on the receiver can you advise a, Transmitter Receiver combo other

Can't actually answer on CPPM .

From Oscar Liang.

PPM
PPM is also known as PPMSUM or CPPM. The advantage of PPM is that only one signal wire is needed for several channels (typically 8 channels max), instead of a number of individual wires. So you should only connect the ground, power and signal cable.

From HK's spec on the Turnigy 9X TX.

Couldn't find any specific reference to PPM on the included RX though as that may make a difference. Hopefully someone else will pop in with a more complete answer.
