      If I were just starting out, maybe I would get one, but for $100 less for a DX6e, or $80 less for a DX8E, I'm liking those DX series better for the value. Those two are dang good radios, and will do just about everything the NX will do. Just a couple more bells and whistles, charge more, and then discontinue DX series. That's Spektrums plans. IMHO.

    👍 Yes, please run out and upgrade your Spektrum radios so us frugal new guys can get a deal on a used DX6 or DX8. 😊 [Half joking aside], appears to be a feature rich quality upgrade. Maybe a plus would be that the telemetry results in less planes being destroyed? That could be a big money saver in the long run.[

      radiomaster is great, really great, for available replacement of hall sensor gimbals just in case, 150 dollars multi protocol, no wifi but do you need that?
      11/22 frame rate is good from nx series,
      11/22 frame rate is on tbs crossfire module too, so i think i will buy radiomaster and put a 3rd party module if i want a better frame rate,
      wifi? vs old school usb, not a problem.
      i will go for radiomaster, although i am hoping if nx series cost has a much better offer in latency/framerate and channel.

    Pretty neat radio, I'm happy with my DX8 but if I was looking for a radio one of the new models would be nice. Love the color display, new gimbals, new battery technology, even the fold down antenna. Downside is that its black, like my DX8, in the southern part of the US in the summer time you have to find a shady spot to sit the radio, you really can't leave it sitting out in the sun when its hot, a silver case would be a better, or maybe I should say a more practical choice.

    • @TheRcSaylors
      @TheRcSaylors  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Great question Robert! I would personally Highly recommend this radio, as it is basically "future proofed" for a very long time. If you can spend a few more bucks, I'd consider the NX8, as it provides two more channels, which can come in handy for slightly more advanced aircraft. Your next plane, as my own recommendation, would either be the Turbo Timber or the Valiant! Both amazing aircraft to push yourself on. After that, there are some amazing warbirds to consider. One of which will debut on our channel tomorrow, if not soon. I hope this helps! Please continue reaching out to us, but post a new comment when you do. TH-cam makes it difficult to respond to comments older than about a day or more for creators.

Currently I'm using the DXS that came with my RTF Carbon Cub S2+ 1.3 - I planned on using this plane as a BNF - my gateway into a future transmitter purchase.

    Please advise... i habe a handful of planes, but have not flown more than a few packs in the last 2 years... my DX6i is ready to be retired.
    So far all of my planes have been 4 and 5 channels, but I'm hoping to add a couple 6-7ch warbirds soon, and get back into flying. Someday I may fly planes like the 1.5m P-51 or the 2.1m Cub, but don't forsee anything nitro/gas or more than possibly 8ch in the near future.
    I have decided not to get the DX8e unless I simply cannot afford an NX radio, in that case at least an 8e would get me back in the air.
    Would you say the NX8, for about $40 more would be a wise choice? I would likely get the larger battery eventually, so wondering if the overall additional cost of about $100 is worth getting the NX10, even if I would likely never use all 10 channels.
    So, on a budget, and with 4 and 5ch planes in my current hangar, and warbirds and aerobats in the 1.2m-1.5m range, and one larger Carbon Cub type plane on the wish list.....what radio do you suggest I try to pick up this winter? DX8e, NX6/8/10? I'm leaning towards an NX8...

    Does the NX 6 satisfy most requirements for most BNF planes from Horizon? Been looking at a used DX8 or for almost same money a used NX6. Is six channels enough for a plane that also has flaps and gear plus flight modes

    My second time watching this video. Just trying to pick up on as much information as I can. Have been reading the comments this time from others. Seeking more opinions. It’s my understanding from “Mrs. Claus” 🤶 that I will be getting the NX8 for Christmas 🎄 2022. I’d love to see a follow up on this radio. Or actually watch you go through a setup of one of your future plane ✈️ videos. Thank you for all you and Abby do for the RC Community. Before I go, let’s all keep our neighbors in Florida in our prayers, during the Ian storm. Thank you. God bless.

    Now for the difference in price. Would you recommend jumping to the NX8 instead?
    Also as I asked in the Q&A, what are your thoughts about considering the purchase of a used radio?

    You guys have the most informative channel for the real beginner that has never flown fixed wing. Thanks for that! Question, I have been considering a RTF from Horizon Hobby. Should I just get a BNF plane and buy this Transmitter separate? Can I bind multiple RC planes with the one without the screen? Any pro/cons or input would be greatly appreciated. Good on the channel once again.

    • @TheRcSaylors
      @TheRcSaylors  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      100% buy this radio with a BNF airplane, especially if you plan on owning more than one plane. Literally the only downside to doing this is cost up front. You can bind a LOT of planes to these radios. In the long run, it will save you money too 👍😎⚓

    I realize that this video is a few years old, but I'd be curious to know how people feel about the minimal buttons on this. Comparing it to the olderTXs I've owned, 8103, 9X, the minimal buttons seems problematic. I'm used to dialing in dual rates and subtrims on the fly (literally) and scrolling through copious menus doesn't seem very ideal when I'm trying to keep something in the air. Is this a reasonable concern?

    Hi Nate, how would you compare NX6 with DX6e? For beginner/intermediate RC pilots, would NX6 be a better choice at this point (Nov/Dec 2020)? I'm transitioning from RTF to PNP or BNF airplanes now, can you please review some of the top choice budget transmitters that might be as good (but cheaper) as Spektrum, maybe from Banggood.com? Thanks!

  • @larrycox6614

    VERY new here: Love the new 6.5 channel transmitter. I'm going to ask a very basic question about channel usage.
    I can figure out what to use 6 channels for (Prop, ailerons, flaps, rudder, elevator, and then retractable gear). When I do advance, what could I look forward to using the other 2 channels for (justify getting a DX8 or NX8)? Thanks to everyone in advance for sharing their ideas!

    • @chadpollman7970
      @chadpollman7970 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Things like flight modes (e.g. SAFE and other receiver-integrated, remote-triggered modes), telemetry, lights, ailerons on separate channels (though “flaps” probably covers that one, as I can’t think of any examples of using _both_ independent aileron channels _and_ dedicated flaps/spoilers on a model), additional sensors (GPS, accelerometers, etc.), payload drop bay, camera trigger, independently-servo’d steerable nose gear... No doubt there are plenty more ways to fill an available channel. 16-channel radios wouldn’t be the hot sellers they are unless people had ideas for how to use them! 🤔😁

    • @ddegn
      @ddegn 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I have several Spektrum radios but I sure wouldn't buy their radios now. There are much much better options which use OpenTX. The new one from Radiomaster looks great. FrSky used to make good stuff but wouldn't buy their stuff anymore now that they switched to a proprietary protocol.
      Make sure to take a look at some of the quadcopter channels and see the radios they're using. Spektrum was cool ten years ago but now they're now way overpriced for what you get.

  • @rickmcdole2389

    Popeye!!! I missed that little guy. I may end up buying the NX8 or 10 at some point. These look good, and the Hall effect gimbals should be a nice upgrade. I have those on another radio and they are slick. The NX6 will open up new options for many hobbyists who want to fly with flaps and retracts and still have the ability to put SAFE on a switch at a fairly reasonable price.

    Thanks for the info - but please be aware that you are giving put incorrect information - it is only the NX10 that has the magnetic gimbals, not the NX6 nor NX8 and unless they are in a sale I notice the price difference between and NX6 and NX8 is almost $99.00. just thought it important that channels giving out information are not giving out incorrect information.. I think if they can be found in a sale then the price difference could be $40.00 odd , also the price range you quote is to the TX only. - other wise I thought I would let you know based on your info , I have just purchased an NX6 as my DX9 backup TX... or maybe they will exchange rolls once I get my hands on the NX6 - thanks
