I have a problem with my left hand which doesn't allow me to hold the transmitter and fly. The tray lets me use the left stick while it holds the transmitter. I wouldn't be able to fly without it.

Great product, easy to use.

My left hand is impaired to the point that I cannot hold a transmitter. With the RC Airplane Tray I can now fly again. It is very comfortable. I forget about it once I'm flying.

This transmitter tray is a bargain; everything is well made and with the harness is a complete system. Very happy with this purchase.

Great product and service

I came across this transmitter tray on an internet search and thought I would give it a try. The product delivers on all levels and the service was amazing given I ordered from the UK. The instructional videos couldn’t have been clearer in putting it altogether. Order with confidence

Try it once. You will be delighted

These trays give me a great amount of precision and control of the sticks. It really stabilizes your hands for much better control.

Fit and Compatibility

The carry handle clamp fits radios that measure 4-3/4 to 9-5/8 in. Measure your own radio from the top of the carry handle to the base of the transmitter case; if that measurement falls in the range, the tray fits.

Fits Spektrum, Futaba, RadioMaster, FrSky (including Horus) and FlySky radios. Most current radios from those brands sit comfortably inside the range. If you use a collapsible carry handle, a custom clamp will need to be designed for you. Reach out, and we will get measurements needed to design it so your transmitter can be secured to the tray.

If your radio measures outside it, email sales@flyingtigerrc.com before ordering and we will tell you honestly whether it will work. The tray angle and hand pad placement are both adjustable, so fit is usually solvable, but we would rather say so up front than have you return it.

Thumb flyers, pinchers, and how it looks

Pinchers and thumb flyers both fly with this tray. If you fly with your thumbs on top of the sticks, take the hand pads off: the tray is built to work either way, and it fits wider radios without the pads.

A tray does look different from a neck strap the first time you see one. That is the honest trade. It sits in front of you instead of hanging off your neck, and that is exactly what takes the weight off your neck and steadies the sticks.

What is in the box

Transmitter tray. Precision-cut aluminum, hand-assembled and inspected.

Two-point shoulder harness. This is the part most trays get wrong. A single-point neck strap hangs the full weight of the radio from your neck, which is what causes the ache after twenty minutes. A two-point harness splits that weight across both shoulders. Comparable trays ship with a single-point neck strap and sell the two-point harness separately. Ours comes with it fitted.

Neoprene hand pads. Cushion the wrists on long flying days.

Mounting hardware. Everything needed to assemble, nothing to source yourself.

Setup and adjustment
Materials and construction

The frame is precision-cut 5052 H32 aluminum, chosen for strength-to-weight and for how well it takes a bend without cracking. Light enough to fly with all day, strong enough to last years.

Hand pads are soft neoprene.

Every tray is hand-assembled and inspected before it ships.

Proudly veteran-owned and hand-assembled in America.

Return & Refund Policy

60-day money-back guarantee. If it is not right for you, send it back within 60 days of delivery, no questions asked. Email sales@flyingtigerrc.com and we will sort it out.

Built by someone who needed one

Flying Tiger RC's transmitter tray was designed by Guy Caputo after a motorcycle crash at 250mph+ left him with severe physical disabilities. He built it because he wanted to keep flying, and the tray is what made that possible again. Whether you are an IMAC competitor, a scale flyer, or flying just for fun, this tray lets you focus on the maneuver instead of fighting fatigue.

It is also a genuine help if you deal with arthritis, tremors or reduced grip strength. The tray carries the weight and steadies the radio, which is often the difference between flying comfortably and not flying at all.
