Dude i bought my NX10 last week at my local shop. Wish i watched this video prior would have purchased through you. I got you on my next purchase. Appreciate you!!!

[@Blue68Camaro]

I have Starlink now for almost a year. Very possible you have some bad equipment, ran into issues after 6 months of service and received a replacement router and fixed the slowness issue. Also changed the DNS to 1.1.1.1. and 1.0.0.1. Weekly I upload and download 3 gig files in about 30 minutes. I purchased the NX8 after retiring my DX8 and couldn't be more pleased with it. Toyed with the idea of the NX10 but decide to use the $$ toward a new plane. Thanks for the video.........

[@stevelucas6690]

Thank You Brian and your wife behind the scenes. Great information. You put a lot of time into your presentation.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thank you, and very glad to have you with us!!!

[@gator9944]

side note be carfull when lowering the antenna and storing it in the case that came with the radio, because you will learn as I did, it will dent the the NX 10 badge so make sure to leave the antenna in the up position when storing in the case. Another Great tutorial,

[@brianreece785]

Thanks Brian and wife for ALL you do for us!!!!

[@howardpelcman8788]

Thank you very much for your dedication and sincerity and for staying in the NX line. My NX 8 will serve me for a very long time and I will continue to learn from you. You and your wife are truly in a league of your own, no one else does what you do for this hobby. Your videos are long but it's like having a good friend right there every step of the way 😉 Truly, you guys are thee best.

[@Cakey831]

EXCELLENT! Very glad we could play a small part in getting you up to speed. Now you can do the basics, and just keep building on those. Thanks for the comment, btw!

[@davenehilla9610]

Perfect! So glad I found you a few weeks ago, Brian and camera crew! I suck up a lot of information quickly when I dive into things and I have found you to be the absolute best, and most entertaining source. So this will be my starter controller. And as soon as my wife gets over the thousand dollar Saturn V rocket I just assembled on the kitchen table, it shall be mine! Then I hope to one day find my old Alma Mater to fly…..a Navy A-7E.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Awesome, and very glad you found us too! We need to make a rocket here ASAP - That would be fun!!!!

[@MWall711]

You can use the USB as a game controller to play RealFlight. It's kinda cool to be able to play Realflight to practice flying and it charges the transmitter at the same time. Win win!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

That is a sweet feature, in fact!!!

[@gallor1able]

Just getting into this hobby, i am so glad I found your channel, I had no idea which controller to start with but now I have a better understanding, I beleive you when you say full disclosure. I will be tuned into your channel and if you get some ridiculous noob question, its probably me Best Regards from Orange County, NY

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

AWESOME! Good luck!

[@steelrainfpv3383]

I like the NX10SE, but personally if I'm ever going to upgrade from my NX8 I think the IX14 is the way to go. With Express LRS showing extreme promise, development, support and advancements in hardware, software and firmware, it's much more affordable, just as capable if not more, then I think my Radiomaster TX16s is more than a bargain and my go to radio when needing more than 8 channels with my NX8.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

There's a ton of great choices out there, for sure.

[@chrisj8307]

As a bonus, the tx16 starts when powered on, the ix dont..

[@miriamdiggler1288]

Agreed, the TX16S Mark II smashes anything Horizon has for a radio offering. It's a joke that they actually sell their radios. But, I guess that people are unaware that Radiomaster is a thing.

[@jasonhurdlow6607]

​@miriamdiggler1288 Yeah, I don't get why people still buy them. I recommended the TX16S to a club member recently and they still ended up going with a radio from the big S. They said it was because it was what they were familiar with... IDK. I don't get it either.

[@FXDXTy]

​@@miriamdiggler1288no, we're all.aware it exists. It's just junk.

[@jakegarcia9334]

Well that made my mind up. Seems you are answering a question of my own. Very understandable for a rookie like myself. I believe the 8 will take me a long way. I work for K-hov builders and get fly at so many different areas that I may be at the time. You got me and two others I work with flying. We all watch when we can. Bravo.

[@old-rcplane-phart]

Need a nx10 TO iX20. I'm finding out personally how far superior the ix20se is over my nx10se! I bit the bullet & bought the 20se a tick over a week ago. HUGE learning curve there! TBH, I don't regret dropping the $2000.00 for it.

[@old-rcplane-phart]

(Tho for a few days, I had 'buyers' remorse'. Not anymore!🤪😁👍)

[@billkeeslar59]

The game controller allows you to hook up your transmitter to a computer and use it for flight training simulators. But make sure to disable it before flying your rc stuff again, or it won't transmit RF, and you'll be wondering why lol.

[@kingarthur1953]

A Q&A would be awesome!! So many questions. Left the hobby shortly after DX came out.

[@Jpart1974]

Bought the NX 10 as I will use it for model boats as well

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Cool! Only thing to keep in mind is you MAY need to get AIR receivers, and vs GROUND receivers. Believe it or not, no madder how stupid it is, there is ANOTHER SEPARATE PROTOCOL for ground. It's NOT DSM, DSM2, or DSMX...it's like DSMR or some such goofy thing. Don't want you to get in trouble buying the wrong stuff...and admittedly, there might be a way to "force" another protocol that I'm not yet aware of, but I'll try to address this as we get into more boats and this sort of thing when we get our pond done, but just didn't want you to get caught off guard. Thanks!

[@BB-tq6ro]

Brian. You may feel the difference with your gimbals when you fly your Helis. Try it with your 230s inverted and when you punch out with negative collective yoy might feel the difference.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I will do this. Thanks!

Good day Mr. Phillips. Could you explain how I put my models on my NX8 in order? i.e. most to least used or alphabetized. As a test, I renamed a couple with #1 and #2 in front of them and that didn't seem to do the trick, any direction, greatly appreciated. "Please" keep up your great channel and work and knowledge. JC, WhiteBearLake, MN

[@sambuvca22]

USB set up is so you can use the transmitter on the RFseries simulators

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

yes! we found this out later on, and love this feature!

[@eugenefletcher2441]

great video, question with twin engine planes or single planes does it matter what transceiver you use?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

This is not an issue. You can do both or either on your choice. You just need enough channels.

[@calaiscruiser]

It was the UI and menu system on the older DX and NX transmitters is what killed it for me. I found them very unintuitive and clumsy to use. I have been using a IX20SE for a while now and would absolutely never go back to the old types. Although I do still have a DX8E for when I am beach flying with the gliders and don't want to get sand or salt water in my expensive IX-TX.. but I do not use the DX for anything else.

[@old-rcplane-phart]

I couldn't agree more! The downfall on anything but an iX is the scroll wheel. I got a year out of my nx's til it had to go in for a replacement wheel. Touch screen is much better!

[@RichieRich980215]

Brian, I have question about my NX8 & did the same thing as you and bought the NX10, but like you stated that you have bind each plane to the NX10. Do you have to redo the trust reverse again on the planes you had it on the NX8? Also how about the Safe & AX3S do you bind the same way as you did in the NX8 by holding down the receiver button down then bind? Then Corner the Sticks down and inwards and switching the B switch ten times in my case to activate SAFE? Thank you very much in advance! 😄

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thrust reverse is set inside the ESC, not the Tx. You MAY also need to re-activate SAFE on some planes, I've noticed. Don't do the sticks - do FORWARD PROGRAMMING... if you're not sure how, just check out any of the many bigger planes (not UMX - they're already assigned to a channel) BNF "Unbox Build and Radio Setup" videos we've done

[@RichieRich980215]

hi Brian, you have great informal videos can i on the NX8 and the Nx10 can i see how much battery power i have left in my aircraft while im flying what unit receiver, do i use if possible, besides a timer in the radio. I need more direct information from the helicopter motor, power supply, while I'm flying. I don't want to damage my lipo batteries your advice on these radios is very helpful. I think for me the 8 channel should be ok for me 6 channel for the helicopter servos and 7th channel for my lights and the 8th channel for my pilot that has a turning head . any help will be appreciated Jim

Still rocking my old 1st Gen DX9! I want the ix14 but it's silly money

[@N_Fortune]

Me too, I love my DX9 & the money I saved from not buying the latest NX series. I just spoke to Horizon yesterday (his name was Matt) and he even told me the DX9 is fine and there's no need to go to the NX10 or any of the NX series since the DX9 has forward programming.

[@SlowFlyer85]

Hi Brian been thru everything you have went thru with NX6 and my NX8 but luckly my starlink been working great I wish I seen your first recommendation and went for the NX8 instead of the NX6 but I do like the specktrum products good video and review

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

If you have the NX6, maybe you could try the "Trade in" program when you outgrow it??? NX6 is a GREAT option, when and before the 8 and 10 were available (and don't forget, it was the first one out - the 10 wasn't available for-ever due to covid). Our Starlink has been very spotty lately. It's super annoying. We've had speed issues too, but it's still better than the next best option. Their support is terrible - worst part of Starlink.

[@SlowFlyer85]

[@brianreece785]

I just updated my nx8, it would not work with WIFI. I downloaded the file on my mac. Then change the settings on the radio to mass storage device and plugged the transmitter into mac with usb cable. Then the internal SD card pops up on the mac desktop. Then copy the file to the SD drive. Then you can point to the file and upgrade. You don't need an external SD card. I also have an ix20. It upgrades fine with wifi.

Hi @brian 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..

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You gotta talk to Spektrum on that issue. I don't know what's going on, but better get it fixed ASAP!!!

[@lelzie]

I setup the same audio events on the same 4 switches for all my planes. Is there a way to template just the audio callouts for a switch and them import to a new plane so I don't have to create the audio events manually each time?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I think you can make a shorter list, and I believe you can make a TEMPLATE for the model, then just START from there...but we haven't actually shared it yet. We might need to do that some time. Sorry I can't say with certainty, but believe you can, Leon

[@mtacoustic1]

Have they improved the TX programming to make it even more user-hostile? Apparently Spektrum feels we don't need no stinking intuitive menus (or useful manuals)!

Do you have any dust behind your screen? My sound sometimes also doesn’t work and I have to restart it.

[@jatoav8or]

You might have covered this but , It’s been awhile since I’ve updated my nx10 and there’s 3 updates available, should I just update to the newest or start with the oldest version & work up? I know with most everything else you just jump right to the newest but you know, spektrum doesn’t always do things the way you might expect. Thanks always your entertaining videos!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You're welcome, and YES, there is an UPDATE that JUST came out the other day, but I haven't updated mine yet. It always seems like it's better to wait a few weeks, and let all the "early adopters" find the bugs - LOL / Cry ;)

[@johnmacdonald5610]

Brand new to the hobby! Don’t have anything. Retired guy looking to get into this, but fund’s little limited. Probably like everyone getting into this, I don’t expect to have more than a couple planes. That said, is a less expensive DX6e a bad investment? I know the no is the replacement, but little pricey. Your videos are a great resource!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I can say this with certainty - even on a limited budget, if you get 2 planes, you'll soon enough have 20 ;) You probably think I'm being a sales man here, but I promise I'm not. Here's my NO BS pitch - buy as much as you THINK you'll need (or can afford) so as to avoid buying several steps along the way. This will save you THOUSANDS in the first years of your hobby experience. $1000's - NOT AN EXAGGERATION. If you want a GOOD value that will see you through a lot of RC planes, you MIGHT consider the NX7e - it's not NEAR as good at the NX10, for obvious reasons (namely the channels...10 is gonna get you YEARS and YEARS of planes, while 7 will leave you wanting in a year or so, if you advance through the "ranks" anything like an average pilot) NX7e comes with "bonus points" right now, which I think makes for about a $50 credit against something else...so check it out.. bprc.me/NX7e - THIS ONE is where you should be starting... bprc.me/NX8 - DON'T GET THIS ONE, it's too "in the middle" and it's still pricey...unless they put it on sale. bprc.me/NX10 - Get this one if you want to get the "next step" over the NX7e bprc.me/NX20 - If you KNOW you're gonna be ALL in, just get this OR the iX20...but I don't even have one ;) bprc.me/iX20 - If you won the lotto - get this one ;) bprc.me/Tx - the whole list here - DO NOT GET A DX - they're going to lose support soon, and you will NOT have every feature we use

[@xJae14x]

This feels like a much harder way to update firmware. On my Nx7E (with no WIFI) all I did was connect to the PC via USB, download the firmware and drag the file into the transmitter’s folder. Turn the Tx off and on and firmware auto updates. Took about 5 min of work without even knowing what I was doing.

..I love my NX8. But NX10, has sliders - eh, first thing with NX8 I did was upgrade the battery to the Spektrum 3.7V 6000mAh 1S for $35. Other than that, if I upgrade my controller, it will be to the iX14.

You DON’T want an ix transmitter . I have an ix12. Takes a long time to boot up. It’s slow, has limited battery time. Buggy, audio is cheesy/laggy/scratchy/mutes (goes away). Menu navigation is gut wrenching/slow/cumbersome. I flew just a few flights with it, and put back in the box (shelf queen).

Getting the NX8 delivered tomorrow. I'm using real flight with the dedicated controller for the sim. Is it easy to use this in place of the real flight controller or even worth doing since I have it? I heard someone mention on another vid you have to reset the controls or trims before flying the plane or maybe I misunderstood it. Also to make sure you are out of sim mode before flying, which seems obvious, but wasn't sure how easy the transition is.

You can do it with VERY limited effort, BUT, I'm too lazy to do it, so I'm not assuming you're going to do it either ;) That being said, we have so many good Tx'es that it's kinda like...I just use the WIRED one more often than not. It's a very good analog for what we use with ANY of the NX lineup Tx'es, and that's what I'm after. Good luck - remember to UPDATE YOUR FIRMWARE when you get it (if it's not already).

Thanks Brian for this update video!! I invested in the NX10 and ended up getting the SE version. Your videos are so informative and love to watch them. Thank you so much. I do have a question. Have you ever replaced any of the switch rings? Is it difficult? Just curious as the SE version came with the orange hand grips and switch cover rings. Thanks again Brian and camera crew!!

[@bootz929]

I changed them on mine. Not bad at all. Just use some needle nose pliers to help pull the switch out when needed. I think only one had potential to fall in so just be careful of that. Do it inverted if possible. 👍

[@dwightgoodman2116]

Hi Brian. Hope you are doing well. You've been very good about answering questions for me. Let me ask another general question. When setting up my low (70%), medium (85%) and high rates (100%) for each control surface, should I start with positions 2, 1 & 0 respectively...or, just the opposite?

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Rates and expo are highly subjective, but my recommendation is to figure out what you like and then be consistent with that. There isn't necessarily a right or wrong order to set your switches. I like to start in the middle mode so I have an out either way, up or down.

[@bradleyrhodes2820]

One maybe dumb question. If I have a 9 channel plane with Flaps retracts, reverse thrust, led burner effect thing…. Can I have a nx8 and choose one not to run. So in my case I have no use for the led after burner thing. Can I just use the nx8 and not use one of the channels? If I can, can I choose what I don’t want to use? Say I don’t want forward thrust but I DO want the after burner, can I choose things like that. I have only one plane where this is even a question and I can’t bring myself to spend the extra money for stuff I will not 1000% use

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Not a dumb question. You can just omit a control channel, or tie it into another for the same effect as the throttle, for example. This sometimes doesn't work on certain designs of throttle or afterburner led's, fyi, but generically, YES you can do that.

How about donating a transmitter to a brother; if you do, please sign it; it would mean so much. My DX6E won't allow me to use thrust reverse on my T-28.

[@olddogg60]

Another successful day. I learned a lot from your video. 😊👍

I fell for this POS in November '22. WiFi didn't work out of the box! 6 months on, telemetry is acting up. It came with the wrong firmware. It cannot be updated on a Mac! So my $550 "upgrade" from a DX6 now has to be sent in for the firmware that it should've shipped with. After 2 years on the market? Worst Spektrum experience in my 15 years. This was my last Spektrum radio. My Radiomaster Zorro is a far better TX at a fraction of the price. Such a waste. Now when I look down to check the timer on the Zorro, the strap is no longer blocking the screen! I see the custom flight information instead of a big billboard proclaiming "NX10!!!" where the screen should be. And it fits my hands like a glove. Every switch right at your fingertips. $ 130. Ergonomics. What a concept. Run, don't walk from the Spektrum trap. You're being fleeced.

You couldn’t just find a windows machine to update from? A friend. Family member?

[@RARenfield]

@@johnd9357 I converted any holdouts in my family decades ago. I worked at Apple. Mac since '85. Friends don't let friends do windows. Only people I know with windows are my in-laws. In Maine. And they don't know how to use it. So I should fly to Maine and learn Windows in order to use a transmitter that has been out for 2 years? In what parallel dimension? Point is, it should not be an issue in the 21st century. That is lame AF. Period.

Hi Brian……kind of off topic I bought the budget transmitter…the radio master Zorro. I bought it for my eachine E120s helicopter. I should have asked you first. Do you recommend that transmitter the zorro with ELRS?

[@petewatts30]

Nx8 does what I need but if I got more pro with the helis I guess the ix14 for the better gimbals.

[@AlpineWarren]

I see the antenna is adjustable - What would be the proper orientation for flying?

[@flycatchful]

Your channel is for the non professional and covers the basics for the beginner. I find that you talk to us and not down to us which other websites lack.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Awesome! Thank you! That is very great to hear!!!

[@edwardcase]

More Sequencers on the NX 10

[@fredohyeah]

Just found your channel and think it’s awesome, funny, interesting and informative. Would love to see a live Q&A involving some margarita 😂

[@RichardClaudio-uf4ch]

Brian Can you make a short video how to change the swich nuts to customize Spectrum Transmitter

[@stevemarshall8048]

Hey bro, long time friend I just got an annex a good idea and when I turn it on the spectrum logo stays on I don’t know what’s up can u do a video this stuff never works

[@stevemarshall8048]

Nx8

[@chrisj8307]

Just upgraded from dx6g2 to nx10. Both are great transmitters but nx10 a bit overpriced compared to other brands imo.

[@noswad75]

$500 for that is ridiculous!

[@budsimpson973]

Will the nx series allow models built on an IX series to load?

[@mastersteel1079]

You remind me of Tim Dillon. That's a huge compliment. Love the channel! Subbed!

[@NebulaOrion1]

[@1bizjets]

Yeah no different. Get the 10 if you need that many channels.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

[@LeeShand]

Could you not cater to both?

[@richg7952]

How about a review between the NX10 vs NX10SE please.
