Crashcrash,

DX6 Setup:

Your right there pal, a real PITA. It takes time to go through all the menus and settings. Start with the basics and build on that.
Just set up the basics for now and you can tweak later. If you don't have a gyro, make sure it's turned off. Then go for basics.
Throttle, rudder, aleron, elevator. Yes, the trim levers are digital, not sliders. However, it's easy to get use to. You'll notice that with each movement of the trim, it will advance or decrease (depending on direction you push the lever) +/- 2. With each change, you'll hear a "beep", when it goes back to zero, you'll hear a much louder "beep'. It's a notification of zero trim, when your flying so you don't have to look at the screen to see where you're at. Takes time to learn,,, you've already learned a ton, just one more thing to add to you data base(brain).
