    • Lots of features for a great price
Exactly as expected. Easy to setup and the color screen is easy to read. It takes some reading/practicing to get it up and programmed but the info you need is in the manual, just takes practice.

    • It is a loaded "Yaesu"...
I am an Extra Class "Ham" radio amateur, and a student pilot. Of course, I checked first the leading ham brands of radios such as Icom and Yaesu. The way to understand this phone, is that it is built around the address book. Address book entries can have frequency and/or coordinates. All entries from 108 - 117.95 MHz are Nav channels automatically. The higher channels are voice two-way channels. VOR and ILS functionality automatically switches on when proper signal is received. Hence, switching between Nav and voice is all automatic. Also feature NOAA WX channels. Any address entry with coordinates can be used as way points and used for GPS navigation. Routes such as RNAV approaches can be configured and stored. Tip, only use one CT or CTAF frequency with coordinates, so that when configuring routes, only one entry pops up per airport. This radio does not have DME but approximates distance when coordinates are given for the Nav entry via GPS, more precise than DME. The radio is only useful, if proper address entries are made before flight. Generally, it appears to work. The radio can backup VOR, ILS, DME (via GPS), and heading indicator, and shows GS speed and true altitude. HI appears to work better than the gyro steam-dial we have on our aircraft. The antenna however is lossy when compared to aircraft antenna. The best I was ever able to hear a VOR was from 40 miles at altitude, with many VORs hat came in way under the 20 miles mark, while onboard VOR was clearly having much better reception. Ground reception is poor. Used it with CFI around field which worked great, but barely can follow TRACON 10 miles away from airport at ground, directly under major STAR route. ILS approach appears to be spot on, although I was not trying as PIC myself, mainly because I am not comfortable enough, yet, fiddling with tech while flying myself. BT with Bose A20 headset is beautiful. Compared to ham gear pricing, the radio is fairly priced, particularly because it comes with ALL accessories. Display is beautiful in the realm of HTs. Not sure how long the battery last, but I have taken it on consecutive XC flights without recharge. Software is Microsoft only, but works without issues on Parallels. Software is mandatory to make use of the phone as described above. It is super rugged and always with me in my flight bag. Is it a useful tool as backup? Maybe. As a radio for sure, and experienced onboard radio failure (with panel backup still working, though). As a Nav aid, I probably rather use Foreflight on iPhone or iPad. And remember, as backup, you need to have waypoints and routes pre-programmed. I cannot imagine you can setup an RNAV route in the air, but perhaps a direct visual route. I am not sure if I would use the radio, unless stuck in unexpected IMC soup, without alternate, and with non-working onboard instruments. Probably would request vectoring instead. Still a great learning tool/toy for new pilots. Not regretting the purchase at all. It is single handed the best handheld aviation radio on the market, particularly if you like features. If you want to use for listening into ATC, I would invest into a good aviation band (tuned) mobile or fixed-base antenna. ... show more

The media could not be loaded. PROS: - Group Memory Name is now displayed during scanning mode — finally; - Alpha-Numeric Tags displayed once scanning locks on to a frequency — finally; - Color Display is vibrant; - GPS quickly locks on to satellite and is accurate; - My PIC tested the RX/TX while flying his Gulfstream G650, and he gave it 5-stars with air:air, air:ground, and air:air communications; - My PIC tested the FTA-850L’s avionics, and all passed with decent accuracy — nothing he would rely on, but it worked with decently accuracy; - Easy to program once you understand the logic or illogic method of Yaesu; - It is durable and water resistant; - The RX is really good — I can pick up aircraft and ATC comms from my house with the OEM rubber-duck antenna; - The speaker is loud; - TX voice quality is excellent; and, - Yaesu is very generous by supplying all the accessories you will need as a PIC: headphone:mic adapter, ferrites, cradle-charger, 12V charger, antenna, battery, AA battery adapter, programming cable, and different outlet sockets. CONS: - The color display sucks in direct sunlight and outside — the natural light and direct sunlight blacks out the display — I can’t read anything — I have to be in the shade to see the data (see picture); hence, the reason I gave this product 4-stars; my FTA-450L, has no problem showing data in the sunlight (see picture); - I can’t charge the battery alone in the cradle — I have to keep the battery attached to the transceiver, which means, even though I can use the battery from my FTA-450L, I cannot use my FTA-850L if I need to charge the battery. Fortunately, I can use my FTA-450L as a battery holder while charging the spare battery; and, - Bluetooth doesn’t connect to my Motorola Earpiece and PTT FOB. I guess I have to use the Yaesu Bluetooth earpiece. Notwithstanding the CONS, I am still happy with my purchase. It is definitely a good transceiver for back-up RX/TX in the event that the onboard flight RX/TX goes out for some reason. I ain’t a PIC; hence, I use the FTA-850L strictly as toy to entertain me while I am at home, at the FBO or civilian airports, and up in the air in a private jet or commercial plane, as a passenger. As a passenger, I use the FTA-850L’s avionics to track my PIC’s flight path to and from LAX, SFO, JFK, and LGA while up in the air — pretty cool, and I enjoy it. My private jet PIC carries the FTA-850L in his flight bag as a back-up RX/TX tool — he doesn’t use the FTA-850L’s avionics to navigate nor land — it’s strictly a communications back-up tool for him.
