It’s odd that if I set max volts to 25.2 and min to 22.2, the esc thinks it’s a 7s pack and not a 6s pack. Annoying.

I have untouched floats in my basement and my turbo timber is one of my prefers planes. My new FunCub NG is also cool and lighter. Would love to try them from the water :))

That worked great!!

Great! Now I know how to program altitude or better vario for my first Glider. I think vario lets you know if your plane is sinking or gaining altitude. I will also program Voltage voice messages. It was annoying to look on the screen on the planes were I have Esc-telemetry… THANKS!

☠BLACK BARON☠1:28 I knocked it down to 4.1V still and still getting Warnings during flights ... 2:05 ... 7S Lipo ... I never understood that setting ... I have a 6S SMART Lipo in my Heli and my Avian 120 is programmed as 6S instead of "Auto Calc" ... this SMART ESC Telemetry is really awkward developed.

My volts are wrong battery is 12.5 but the radio says it's10.3 I don't know how to adjust it to correct value have anyone fix this yet

Could not assign a switch to safe select. It just would not work. UNTIL I tried toggeling the switch as fast as I could. It worked!

I do have a 11x7 prop available. Would that work also work? I found the flap servo connection was awfully short making it difficult to connect to the Y connect from the receiver so I added 6" extensions to them. Much easier then tied them off. There is not much room in there. I found the 4S 2200 a really tight fit so I will try a 4S 1800. I normally fly a 60-70% throttle leaving full throttle for low passes and verticals only. Have flown it on safe and all seemed well, then the winds picked up so I decided not to go back up.

Cool video, you have to subscribe right away

Was the APC2-blade prop, "equivalent" to the 4-blade stock prop? I would want to fly with cheaper 2-blader and use 4-blade for display.

My flaps don’t work...

hey, my dx 8 has no smart battery and no smart esc. what have i do to get this? i dont have a smart lipo back but a lipo pack connected with my receiver. i want this smart battery advertisement :(

Does the battery go forward or towards the receiver thank you

@Kris...this video is now a few years old, but I just picked up a DX8G2.....I also picked a few HH models with SAFE / AS3X , but no flaps .....do I still follow your set up instructions, but just select a different wing type and follow your video for all else....?.....

Excellent explanation. That voltage alarm on my STICK was driving me nuts. Good information all around. Thanks!

This plane fly very whobely 😱

Flys this plane really so slow? 🤔 It s nice for learn acro✈️👍

Really nice looking plane and fly s nicely too👌✈️👍

I haven’t bought a TX yet, but this is very helpful info, thank you.

Helpul video, thank you very much my friend

Hello it is possible with a 6 channels radio spektrum dx6 v2 to programme the safe mode, all my aux channel are full, train and flaps,

Great information! Thanks

Nice post Niner.. Year and half into the hobby here, with just 2 E-flite birds so far. Very "SAFE" type pilot that flies high inverted, barrel rolls, ect. Wanting to move up in the hobby now and get off Safe. Want to set EXP and such to help. I am gracefully AGING, and can't hear high pitch sounds well anymore. I use a voltage alarm in my T-28 but I can't hear the beeping!! The sound warnings on this DX8 seem very tough to understand. I haven't heard anything about the "vibrate" option of alarms on this model?? It would probably be my way to go.. I could set the desired low voltage warning and the DX8 could vibrate to tell me when it is reached?? I want the 8 channel option so I can grow in the hobby.. Main concern now and forever is the condition of my battery,, and when I should land the plane without draining my battery and damaging it.. or not having enough battery power remaining to make another landing pass if needed.. Thx in advance Nine.. ;)

Problème de programation aileron un fonctionne normalement l,autre par retour au neutre par des à-coups

Do you ever have a connection error on 1 battery the can be charged on both sides of the charger

I am still liking this DX 8 radio over the newer NX 8...not really seeing any huge advantages of upgrading to the NX series , unless I begin to use the fairly expensive Spectrum Smart LiPos.......anyone know why the NX series is worth switching over to, if so please comment ....thanks

Thanks, noob here. All I want to see/hear is when my batt is low. What Voltage per cell would you set an alarm at ? 3.2ish ? And then simply set it to "voice"? Thanks for the info :)

I am using Dx6e with AR637T. Telemetry auto-config work fine except battery voltage. I am able to set alarm thresholds in telemetry for 3S battery. When I open Volts screen I see no volts value.

Might be a dumb question but I just bought one of these on FB marketplace, why doesn’t yours have the little SD card sticker next to the display? One I bought is missing that too is it a different model?

I haven't been able to find any good reference information from Spektrum regarding the telemetry. I was using ESC voltage to ballpark my battery. Then I discovered Flight Pack. Then I remembered seeing something about Smart Battery (and again here) so I need to check for that. I had set a voltage alarm with the ESC but somehow lost it when I set other alarms. I tried to set it again with Flight Pack but I think other callouts might be overriding it. But it would be nice to know what is available on an aircraft. The Horizon site will often say that the telemetry does x and y and other telemetry data.

HI, I've a SMART ESC + SMART BATTERY + AR 9350 receiver and a DX8G2 transmitter but got non SMART telemetry. Where is the problem? Receiver?

Did you ever have a issue with charger main port I’ve been having that issue every time I go to charge my lipo batteries I get a message issue with charger main port wondering if you know what to do because I’m lost on it

Thanks to you I was able to set my switch for off and on on my F-16 Falcon64mm as well on my f-15 eagle 64mm now if I want to deactivate my safe on fly I can do it. And do more tricks like roll over loops. You are the only one how has that video. I fowered to my son . He was able to set his too. I appreciate.

My right servo on my viper is twitching rapidly any helpful tips on that

Listening to you talk about just going out and not really knowing much about the tech... it’s as though you spoke my truth!! First foray into smart tech on my ultimate 3d, took it up vertical, alarms went off then the plane tripped out to tell me the freshly charged battery was at a critical level and I had no idea what was going on. I’m guessing it’s a duff battery. So chuffed to see how to change the min values. Cheers boss. 👍

Very good how you explain it. Now I know what I was doing wrong wit my F -16 falcon and f-15 eagle I have not been able to select a switch for safe select. Thank you .

I used hot glue on mine and glued those ESC motor cables to the inside walls so they won't rub on the motor and problem solved!...👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 Thumbs up from Douglas, Arizona 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🌵😷🇵🇷 Lime#34

Thanks! That was really helpful!

I have the Carbon-Z Cub SS BNF with a DX8 G2 and the smart battery but it says no data. Do I need anything else?

Which receiver did you use, have a ar400 in mine. Did you use the Auto-config for all the settings.

I think the most important and basic thing to use from telemetry is the voltage. This rather than a timer will give you accurate information as to how much longer you can fly and when it is actually time to land.

Your charger is rated at 100w total on AC and 200w total on DC. You are charging 2 6s batteries (22.2v x2 = 44.4v) if you divide 100w/44.4v = 2.25A. Thats your total charge power for each battery when you have your charger connected to AC. If you connect it to DC the total power will be 4.5A for each battery.

Need some help, Whenever I use switch A to use my landing gear, my nose gear turns right and doesn’t go up

Very nice flying! Looks like Southern Utah. St. George?

Even oleo strut mains won't eliminate bouncie bounce...installed Aerostar RVS 60 amp ESC with motor reverse feature...with perfect touchdown timing (doesn't happen first landing!) reverse thrust does 'speed up' a reduction of stopping distance in landing roll...good luck...🇺🇸🤔👍

Thanks awesome

Go deep in the DX 8 and gross fast.

What hardware is installed in your plane to have telemetry displayed on your transmitter? Only use a Smart battery and AR8010T receiver? Or also other sensors?

I would love a video of As3x gains how to

Do you charge in the field ? If so what do you use to charge 6s packs
