Dx6

Good radio for electric plane and heli.
Been using it on My X400
No glitches.
No need to check your freq. Just switch on and fly.
Currently no other Tx can jam your selected freq.

Say goodbye to PPM/PCM.

Check out JYHeli. I think he is the first few to use it when it first arrive in Singapore.

Just for your info... that TX is more suitable for airplane instead. In heli mode, it only have 3 point curve. For some, it maybe enough but for most, too few to tweak around.

good for planes

Good radio.
I don't think the 3 point curve is a problem. Unless you are into those super 3D flying. Even with some standard arobatics and 3D is good enough.
The down side is the Rx is super small. The casing is like those clear plastic that you buy computer parts in. The servo pins are too expose. One of these days I think I am going to break the pins and the Rx is about $120. Also if you are planning to fly large nitro, you might be better to get PCM radio. Jet hobby told me it has a range of about 300m but I read some where in the net that it has a range of 800m.
Anybody tried to build an out casing that will help protect the Rx?
Can share your ideas?

OEM specs is up to 1500ft but some overseas flyer had tried to up 3000ft without any problems.

OWNers of the DX6

any of the dx6 guys here got any glitches on ya flights so far? Would like to hear feedbacks from owners b4 i get 1...

[kenshin]

not sure though
but i feel that u lose out because you are confined to only 1 rx and that cost 120 dollars which is not cheap. maybe they will come out the module for other tx in future. i rather get those pcm/ppm

No glitches for me so far.

No mode change.
But Jet Hobby can provide mode 1 AND mode 2 DX6.
They have stock for both.
