Hey guys,

I finally decided to build a drone, I'm getting everything from AliExpress except the batteries. The only thing concerning me is the FlySky i6x. I've already purchased it from Aliexpress for ₹4000.00 including the ibus and shipping fees, but is a license required to import it?

Thanks and Regards.

Well everything is shipped, so the order can't be cancelled. But I've chosen a shipping method similar to India Direct Mail of Bangood.

1. India has banned Aliexpress mobile app not Aliexpress.
2. Importing radio is risky, it may or may not go through custom.
3. After clouser of official logistics it is very costly to get items from ali express, due to high shipping rates, and the seller's shipping methods are risky.
4. Try to buy locally, or download an ETA from WPC website for the radio, which is the needed to present to the custom dept. in case of import.

Enjoy

Ali express site is also banned. Not opening at-least through my ISP.

Hey there, same, even I have purchased flysky i6x from aliexpress in 11.11. The app is working, use a VPN it will work fine. In Indian customs you can't predict I mean sometimes they let tx rx in and sometimes not. In fact yesterday my electronics (some other modules) arrived and I had to pay a duty of INR 1611 for those and the same modules ordered from the same seller came like a few weeks back without any extra charges (duty or anything). I don't think you got to worry. If there will be any problem you can raise a refund appeal and the foreign post office will call you. For tx rx I personally told the seller to pack it with black tape to try to not get into trouble

Update: Guys I finally got my FlySky i6x without any hassle! Thanks.

No idea...but I think it works.. Use a VPN and see if they are shipping and taking orders for INDIA. Let us know!

Cancel the order Coz even if they ship it, the Indian customs ll hold it and you ll to face issues. You need to provide an ETA from WPC. I cant Simply type all the issues Coz there is a while list. In simple words cancel the order, purchase from local hobby store or ho for a used one, many are Selling on the Forum. Regards.

It's too late to cancel it coz I already got it without any customs.

Thanks anyway.

Nope @miginstruments ! The customs don't really do that, I got it like a week back... And even if they demand a certificate, it can be easily downloaded from the saralsanchar website

Can you share the details of these whatapp sales group.

TIA
