Spektrum DX9 Unboxing / Features / Flight Review - Chris Reibert

[@crmodels]

You know Jamie it was weird at first but I got used to it after a weekend of training. What's great is it take about 30secs to change the switch back to the momentary switch.

[@donovanhorton9559]

That instructor feature is real cool.

[@crmodels]

I love using it with new guys

[@angelortiz8568]

DX9 is great transmitter I’m very happy with spectrum

[@KalibasauRC_64]

Nice radio control buddy

[@crmodels]

I've never felt the 18 but they feel smoother than my DX8!

[@Chingus696]

Well done chris great video , wife no happy tho she was buying me the dx8 never mind she have to dig a bit deeper now lol

[@crmodels]

Hahaha... Thank you

[@Ricky-ju9ms]

You meant to say same case as dx8 ?

[@OutbackKanga]

how did you fix the "STICKTION" on the throttle stick ?

[@spanky9419]

Were did you get the washer like things that go over the switches for the dx8

[@Ivansmith6]

Great video, I have a problem with the spektrum DX9 registration screen, the web site does not load when I try to upload the SD card file, did you have this problem. I have done the registration manually but am left with the message on my DX9 every time I turn off, maybe it is the web server not loading, will try and send a message to Spektrum at a later date, cheers and happy flying.

[@jcansdale]

How much do you miss being able to mirror the sticks on instructor mode?

[@JYTheKiller]

The DX9 has a higher resolution display, just like the 10t, 18 and qq

[@benheller472]

Are the gimbals like the dx8 or the dx18?

[@Wazza722]

I hear they havnt improved the speaker and sound.

[@Shadowx011]

I notice most people fly copters with both their index and thumbs on the sticks...I only use my thumbs. I guess if this feels natural then there is nothing wrong with flying that way.

[@crmodels]

I flew thumbs for over 20 years and one day I forgot my neck strap and started pinching and flying without a neck strap. I can fly both styles it's just personal preference to what makes you most comfortable.

[@IndividualWon]

Tareq Alsaadi is arguably one of the best 3d heli pilots and Jase Dussia is one of the best 3d fixed wing pilots; they both use thumbs.

[@epoweredrc]

If you have the timer set to start with the timer, then with a heli does it still keep counting down even if your inverted with your heli? i had the DX8 and everytime i went inverted to full neg the timer would stop , that really bothered me.. I always thought once it started it shouldn't stop unless you were in normal mode and pulled it all the way down... I need to look up wireless trainer, i guess you have to have at least a dx8 for a trainer radio for it to work..

[@crmodels]

Set timer to "one time out" and it will keep counting down in all stock orientations. The DX4 and 5 work as a trainer radio for planes. You need a minimum DX6 for helis because you need 6 channels. You need a DX9 as the master to do wireless with any Spektrum slave.

[@epoweredrc]

Chris Reibert Thank you for the fast reply. Right now I still fly with my old trusty DX7, old one, but if get another radio I think this will be the one.

[@crmodels]

I use it for my BNF's and training new guys. Great radio!

[@WillSr70]

Do u have a video how to program a blade 450x into this radio.I could really use some ideas for settings.

[@crmodels]

Use the same settings as the DX8. This should get you 95% of the way there.

[@Blueesteel_]

i needs some opinions...Hitec Aurora 9x or the spektrum DX9? what would you pick? I know they are both good companies but i wanna get some more feed back. which one is less likely to give me problems down the road.

[@crmodels]

I have no experience with the Hitec radios. The Spektrum radios are extremely easy to use and setup. I've never had to open up a manual. Plus they work with the 100's of Horizon helicopter, quads, and airplanes!

[@Blueesteel_]

Chris Reibert thank you for your response! I have been obsessed with aviation my entire life and have fooled around with some RC planes and heli's over the years but i am looking to get a great transmitter that will last me a long time and give me all teh options i might need from trainers to larger aircraft for the future. I have been using the Real flite 7 flight sim and im really excited about getting more serious with this great hobby. thank you again.

[@crmodels]

No problem enjoy!!!
