CX2 with Spektrum DX8
Thinking about a new play toy! haha
If I get the CX2, is there a guide for setting it up with a DX8? I've seen the DX6i and DX7 guides but no DX8. I'm assuming it would be the samebut want to be sure.
Thanks!

RE: CX2 with Spektrum DX8
It should be very similar to a DX7. The servo reversing might be different on the DX8 compared to the DX7, so check to make sure the swash is moving in the right direction before taking off. I have heard of the DX8 having compatibility issues with the DSM2 receivers, so worse case you would have to put a DSMX receiver on. When I was first learning to fly I had a CX with the CX2 4in1 and a DX7.

RE: CX2 with Spektrum DX8
Some DX8 radios were in a recall for the DSM2 issue. Mine included straight out of the box. I sent it to Horizon and had it back in 4 days. No issues now!
