JUST RELEASED! RadioMaster Pocket: A cheap compact radio that does more than I expected

I like the fact that Radiomaster has learnt to put 18650 in this radio.

cheap, cheerful, TRANSPARENT and Portable 😉.. SMALL TX take up a small area on my workbench .. ELRS means my beloved white FS-i6R gets retired .. Radiomaster makes nice kit .... cheers !!

I just received my RM "Pocket" (w/ELRS) last week, and I'm very impressed. And, I love that it has 16 channels if I so need. The gimbals are just right for me and the feel is that it fits perfectly in my hands. It's not too big and bulky or too small either. Pair this up with a decent pair of goggles, and you have a winning combination for flying your drone or plane or copter or sailing a boat or driving an RC car, etc. Ultimately, this radio is perfect for me.

Thank you for your input. I love the look of this new radio, I'm impressed with the standard that Radiomaster are putting into their new range of products, coming more inline with the big box brands (spektrum, futaba, etc) and they have a nice range of radios to suit everyone's needs. Cheers

Lee: Like all of your videos, this was a quick, but thorough review of this cool little new Tx. Kudos to Radiomaster for the little storage bays for our removed sticks & to you for reminding us what functions you assign to your switches on this one. - Jim

newbie here been researching all the components and accessories, gotta say im happy i took so long to find my first transmitter cause this ones lookin beautiful

This would be great for my son, he's currently using the RM TX12 with ELRS module and it has been solid since day one. I really like the different color casings. Great review as always.

Pretty fantastic little radio, Lee! Excellent review!!! 😃 As soon as I fix the money issues here, my neighbor's kid is going to get a present... 😂 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

I'm waiting for the built-in 4-in-1 version!

I want that style of antenna on all radios.

I want that style of removable Gimbalsticks on all radios 😂

Thank you for holding the radio and demonstrating the gimbal operation around 3:00. I watched 2 or 3 other videos and you were the first one I saw that did this. You moved them with thumbs and pinching method. Helped me to visualize how it would feel, fit, and operate in my hands. More people should actually demonstrate that while reviewing radios IMO lol.

When you showed that orange shell, OrangeRX was the first thing that popped into my head. Not a radio for me, but it will be great for kids who want to get into the hobby and those on a very tight budget.

All goodness from TPro and Zorro in one package

Quick FAQ! - batteries are not included in the retail version (note in video, but some are missing it) - AG01 mini gimbals will not fit this radio, they are a different size. - Installed is ELRS V3.3 and an O/S based on EdgeTX 2.10.0 - don't fall for the click-bait. This isn't the 'best radio they've ever made', but it is a great option for those quad pilots who want a compact, cheap portable radio... - no other versions of this radio are planned at the moment (I.e. one with traditional trims and more three position switches, better suited to non BF pilots and models)

Neat little radio

Now this looks nice lee

That looks very interesting! I'm considering getting a second Boxer as a travel radio for those occasions where you might chuck a model in the boot on the offchance. But this might be a far better choice. I'm also lucky enough to have a second home at the other end of the country and again this might be something I can leave there with some models.

For the price, looks great. I’m happy with my qx7 with the external ELRS module and I just got the new Hall sensor gimbals for it. It’s like a new radio

Has anyone used the jumper t20? Would be interested to see a comparison
