Ive been flying now for about 3 months, around 25 flights. I just upgraded to a DX8, I was useing a DX5. Spektrum offered a deal I could not pass up.
This radio rocks. I was thinking about a DX6, or 7 but im glad I choose the 8. The telemetry is very nice, ive been checking the rx batteries with a volt meter,
now I have no worries. I would like to hear from anyone else about there tx's. I set up my Nexstar with flaperons just to see how they will work. It seems the setup and fine tunning is endless.<br type="_moz" />

Great! Nice radio. I have both th DX6i and the DX7 and love them both. I also have two Airtronics radios and they are also great radios.

Be careful with flaperons. You could run out of ailerons on landing just when you need it.

CGr.

DX5 to a DX8 is a quantum jump, as you have already discovered. Nice radio.
