any guesses on what this thing will cost? DX7 is $349.99, yes?

But they keep changing the counter...*** OVER?! Just gimme gimme gimme! I need to know the price so I know to go with the 7 or the 8. I'm buying in a week or two.

Hmmmmm, been thinking of upgrading to DX7 from DX6i, may wait for this.

In either case, does anyone know if its possible to get your settings/planes off the DX6i onto one of the other two? Don't really want to have to reprogram every plane...

i wonder if it has triple rates on elev, rudder, and ail or flight modes

DenverJayhawk 06-24-2010 02:41 PM

RE: DX8 officially official
 
the closeup pics shows triple rates on the elevator. All switches are fully assignable too. I wonder if this will be priced to compete with the Aurora 9?

I'm hoping it's close to the 7, if not I'll be going with the 7 instead. Not that it's a bad thing, 7 is more than capable for the stuff I need. 8 is sweet tho.

If it doesn't say "Futaba" on it, I don't want it!

Since there is not even a hint about the availability date, and you're planning to buy in two weeks or less, it will be the DX7.

ShaneLittle 06-24-2010 05:03 PM

RE: DX8 officially official
 
I know. I should just be happy and get the 7, which I would be. It'd just be nice the be 'that guy' at the field. haha

RE: DX8 officially official
 
If you REALLY want to be "that guy" you need to step up to the $2k level and get a Futaba 14MZ.

I have a 6XAS and a 9C. The 6XAS cost about $230 and the 9C was about $250 so I definitely will never be "that guy."

My LHS says that they were told they would not see for at least a month. They have no idea on price. It is not on the Horizon website that I can find, which is sort of strange
