In this video Tom takes a moment to walk our fellow RC enthusiasts through the procedure to customize a NX transmitters Color display via the Palette Utilities Menu. Follow along to learn how and to find out some helpful Tips and Trick along the way! This video series is dedicated to the NeXt generation of Spektrum Transmitters and what you learn in these videos will apply to all NX transmitters, like the NX6, NX8 and NX10.
Hi Tom , I have just used my new nx6 outside in the sunshine only to discovered that to use the screen in orange blacks out the screen, it is better to leave it in black letters and a white back ground. I would just like to say that your video instructional are very good and clear. Thanks Eddie.
The radio needs more themes which have better contrast in colors. Dark orange against black or vice versa isn't as easy to read. I'm using B&W but it would be nice to have the dark mode version of it with white text against a black background. I'll likely do custom but most of the stock themes have very poor contrast.
Hopefully this link isn’t too old that you won’t answer. I just tried out my new NX20 today. It seems to be a great radio. Did my first flight today and it’s sunny here. I could see the screen and flight timer fine. However because it was sunny I put my Polaroid sunglasses on. And the transmitter screen turned black. I’ve been flying with a D X 18 and this doesn’t happen.. do you have a fix? Thanks. Art
Hi. I just bought an NX7e and can't find out how to access the WiFi network. It says in the instruction book I have it, but just can't find it in the setup menu. Please help! Regards Paul (In the UK)
Hi Tom, I've been trying to remove the total run time on my NX8, (the hr, min, sec, in the middle of the Btm of the screen) i have installed the latest firm ware as of sep 2023. I personaly find this a distraction, and of no use to me with my nitro planes at all. I have spent hours!!! please help. Great straight forward vid's by the way. Chris, Devon England.
When you adjust the color via Palette Utilities it is applied to the current selected model? Is there a way to easily assign it to all models like a "master" set up?
Why don't you guys add some more model avatar types? It's a shame that there isn't a standard high wing tricycle gear one to match your Carbon Z Cessna 150 and about a billion other models out there. You also don't have a DRACO avatar for such a distinctive airplane, either. And, yes, I own both of those planes of yours, so having model appropriate avatars would be most appreciated. Thanks.
Spectrum you make great products, care about the hobby, and are in the price range for the average hobbyist. But for the love of god stop using the word "smart" and "safe" for every feature. Safe select, Self Leveling/Angle Demand, Safe Envelope, Safe Fail safe, Smart batteries, smartcharger, smartsafe, and smart esc. I went out to my club and peoples heads are spinning getting every feature confused.

New model pictures would be nice or a video how to,I know I'm not alone in that,thanks for all you do
Coming soon!
Is there a way to set the screen brightness to a switch? Having a high medium low brightness switch would be fantastic. Thanks.
No but that is a good suggestion! I'll put it down as a feature request
Thank you!
Is there a way, instead of using the SD card, to back up your planes to PC with WiFi? (NX10)

I love that it can be done on the radio and just be near wifi. No need for a computer and SD card drive, just to make your radio work. Hell yeah.
Cool tips that I will use. Thanks ✌😊

How do you put a color picture of your model on the screen.
Awesome feature !
Does the dark screen save battery?

I would like to change the red line color so I can see the percentages under it.
Festive for Halloween coming up. Lol
LOL Didn't take long for someone to notice that!
How do I duplicate a model that's already I tge radio
First. View haha
Legend!
You can really screw up your screen. I have white on white. Not cool then you can't see anything
The NX screen sucks. The screen looks like it comes from the 1970's. A $30 Dollar General cellphone has a better screen.
