Outstanding! Synapse at work there. Love the paint scheme...thats the one MP built to land on that heli platform in Dubai. Sweet!

What radio / gyro used?

Is there any way this guy could talk any faster? He even gets tired and has to take a deep breath. How did he get a job in promoting product reviews? Looking elsewhere!

Please, introduce a USB-C charging port on those NX+ models. I can't believe Spektrum still has the old style usb in 2024... if there is ONE thing I hate about my NX8, this is it.

And NOW then i Got MY NX8+, the shit dosnt work... wireless connection. The fuccking Update isn´t working.. This transmitter is as bad as the IX12 i got with a slow internal Tablet. SPEKTRUM SUCKS:

Thanks for all of the info, ive been hopping between RTF radios and im looking into getting one of these so i dont have to do that anymore lol

@steve have a weird model overwrite issue on my nx10. I have a few models created. When I turn on my radio, my first model gets copied over the last model I flew. Only started happening in the last week. Any help appreciated..

The Spectrum battery checker is over priced.I had one and the screen broke on me.The best one is a cellmeter7 battery capacity controller and is only $10.00 on Amazon.

The Spectrum DX18 used to be the king of radios.Only the rich people owned them.

I currently own a DX8 and I learned to fly on a 5 channel long antenna 72 mhz MRC 765 in 1980.My DX8 is good enough for me.I fly sport/pattern planes.

Omg it has the scroll wheel. That’s a deal breaker

Oh a Micheal McDowell fan….

Does the NX 8+have a horizontal antenna as well as well as the nx9 in the handle

Had the battery tray printed, thanks for that info too.

I’m confused as to why you would buy an nx20 at this point then. Yea of course the nx20 is a little nicer but still the main reason why most people bought it was because of the extra channels so why did they buy a $1200 radio when a $400 radio now has the same capability. I feel like this throws people who bought those bigger radios under the bus

What is the update #? 14.?? For the NX6

This is a HUGH DEAL! How did I just stumble upon this?! 20 channels for $400?! This is game changing! Thank you for this great video.

Good to see you’re still at it! I watched you a lot when I first started flying RC helis.. then I’ve been into DJI drones, came back to a couple of planes, now I want to return to my roots, so to speak. I still have a (venerable) 300 cfx I’ve NEVER FLOWN, and I may get another old heli, the 230 s, But I am thinking I should get a newer radio too at some point.. it’s been ten year and I am still using my DX8! I told my wife back when I got it, “I can use this thing to fly anything in the store for years!”… so other than the drones that came with their own radios, that has been true. But with newer Smart batteries and newer smart aircraft models, I’m thinking I should upgrade my radio too. But there is nothing weong with it.. it’s mint! It still works the same as the first day I got it!

Hi sir. honest question I'm going to buy a new rig. What would u recommend a beginner jet or plane would be. I fly fpv drones an rc trucks just never owned an airplane. Thanks for any help

What a rip off it should be available on its own if you just want a gyro for your turbine

Steve. it would be awesome IF you could update the transmitter and then update all your receivers through the transmitter! I've got a lot of receivers to update. Mainly ar636t's

NX 20 would you put a 25,000 jet on this NX 20 that failed first d time out of the box ??

I just purchased a NX 20 reght out of the box after charging the tx battery it high throttle alarm went off I have a DX18 QQ but it can not be upgraded has no specker. I am not happy Horizon use to check every TX for operation but that was 10 years ago or more. o this TX NX 20 had to be returned and I am not sure I want to go thrugh 3 hours on the phone to the serivce center so think twice befor eyou By from Horizon Hobby.

Thank you!

No update for the dx8?

Just bought mine last week. I was told that with the latest update, it doubles all the channels going from 7 to 14 channels! It’s amazing how much more this transmitter offers and yet still cheaper than the DX line. Excited to start using it.

I am trying to set up a new NX8+ and there are some differences between the older NX8 and the updated NX8+. The manual has a channel input config screen from the NX8. It shows 5 Aux channels. The actually screen on the NX8+ has no Aux channels. The KZbin videos for the nx8 all direct that the SAFE select switch be programmed to Aux2. I can't get the switching set up on the NX8+ for switchable between beginner, intermediate, and advanced. When I bind the new transmitter it only comes up in beginner mode.

Nice camera work. What camera and lenses were used.

I have the nx6. Does this mean I can now buy 8 and 10 channel receivers and bind them?

I had the twist 60 with a os 91 fx That is the best engine for it . I flew it until the engine wore out. They cost 200.00 back then but are now 280.00 They takeoff and land easy, easy to transport .

How do you use spektrumnx 8 + 20 channels ?

Are the drive wheels hydraulic too?

Add Bluetooth for headphones please.

Hi. After updating the NX8 and the original receiver in the E-Flite Turbo Timber Evolution 1.5, BNF version, why does AS3X and SAFE not work when I re-use it from the BNF model database in the radio? I haven't flown the plane since the update because I don't have time to spend hours setting it up by trial and error. It seems that the database of preset models in the radio is not compatible with the new version.

Damm guys, there is the GPS signal reciver for autonome flight, also in transmitter for return home.. so slow design.

If you would like to do a real service to your customers, write a manual that the average person can use. As usual, the manual for the Spektrum transmitters tells one where to find the action request needed, but does not tell the steps on how to accomplish the requested task. Not everyone is a computer tech.

So can i use my NX8 in the new Bronco that needs a 12 channel radio?

Will the original DX18 (non G2/3?) series Tx updated to FW 2.11, be able to take advantage of the features of newer AS3X+ Rxs, or the older SRXL2 Rxs, updated to AS3X+?

Can you put brakes on them and then try to replicate the helipad landing?

Where is the NX20SE with the nice aluminum gimbals??

Is there any way to reduce the number of channels on the monitor screen on the NX8 after the update. The existing models in my transmitter monitor just 8 but if you create a new model it monitors 12

will there soon come an NX10+, I really would love to have 2 sliders on the back side.

Well I bought the Draco a few weeks ago for my birthday and after assembling it I decided to purchase the Spektrum 8+, which I did this morning before viewing this video. Will this radio have the updates already installed?

To me spectrum nx 10 is way better not only quality also simple not as complicated as radiomaster tx16s. Simplicity is a key. In which case even after learning how to use tx16s i still using my nx 10 .spectrum is best of the best 585$ it steal. Plus if u want all the options on tx16s it will run 600 $ for that i get spectrum nx 10 . It homicidal radio not for everyone 😅😅😅

Why are there electronics in spectrum tx batteries?

Any word on the info on how to add custom sounds to the NX7e after the update?

Nx10 better get the 20-channel support update too.

Nice t-shirt!

Hey Steve, thanks again…Do you mean if I update my NX7e right now, it has custom sounds enabled, or that feature is still to come later? If it does have them right away after the update, how do I activate them?

Thanks for the helpful video. Will Spektrum release any receivers above 10 channels? OTher than the very expensive and big powersafe receivers, there arent many options to make use of the additional channels. You also cant daisy chain two smaller receivers together currently for more channels...
