    Great for we who are new, or, like myself, getting back to the hobby after years of absence. This is why I buy from Horizon/Spektrum. You got me back in and so I'll stay with you. Well except for that Ugly Stick V2 from Durafly that I went elsewhere for. You didn't have one of those, but an AR620 antenna-less receiver and my DX6e is what makes it great. Thanks again guys.

    This is a FANTASTIC VIDEO the only draw back is the glare from the fluorescent lights above the desk, sometimes you can’t see the display. But I’m still gonna give you a five star rating. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ this video helped me so much to get used to my new DX6e, I love it NOW.

    Thank you. I have very recently purchased my 1st plane and this transmitter, (it hasn’t been unboxed yet). I will probably need to rewatch this video a few more times as I set up, because of my inexperience. But I believe that it will be easier to follow than the manual provided with the radio.

      Bro I just got the DX8 G2 and this is my second radio I have the DXE non-computer soon as I go to program it on the computer I have all kinds of problems this is what I was afraid of I'm still trying to figure out if I should download and program the new one cuz God damn it don't give me a controller that works just for the airplanes you know it's got to control the whole world spin... you understand, and it's just to keep you busy ,so you can charge all your LiPO batteries get every plane that you have ,ready to go in the car you're at the Flying Field"" and"" the controls are all backwards on your controller..( rackin frackin snapping cracking) now how in the hell did this happen? so you spend the rest of the day trying to figure out what happened ,meanwhile all your buddies are flying having fun laughing and carrying on.... but the second you get that stupid little plant in the air everything melts away... why..lol..:(:(:(:(

    • @koalatails6391

      mojo 410 Captain Caveman, I think that I have it sorted for beginner flying. Had to reverse two channels, put in a throttle cut, set 3 x rates + expo, added a aileron/rudder mix (I can switch that on & off, just in case). Then I got “cocky” & decided to program flapperons! That took me some time to figure out. Fortunately I’m not in a hurry, the plane looks good on the ground, so now I wait for the perfect opportunity to take it to the local RC flying club. Wish me luck.

    @txrcnoob 6 років тому

    I have a nano cps I setup per horizon using the dx6 configuration in the manual Im using the DX6e. Why cant i check pitch pre flight pitch does not move, i can fly the heli using the dx6 but i was able to check all movements pre flight with the crappy rtr radio but only elevator and aileron using the dx6e.

  • @mickoberhaus7543
    @mickoberhaus7543 4 роки тому

    I would like to add that since I purchased my Dx6e 6 months ago I have had ongoing trouble with the on/off switch. Eventually no matter how long you long press it, it would not shut off, and I had to pull a battery. That same day while trying to power on the switch broke and fell into the radio. Bad design I liked the old switch much better because now I have to send my radio in and I won't be able to fly for over a month.

  • @johnsimion2893
    @johnsimion2893 4 роки тому +14

    I offer this opinion as a complete beginner, a person who has no RC experience, owns nothing, but enjoys watching others fly and is interested in getting into the hobby. I watched the video because it said "Beginner" and I wanted to see if I could understand how this stuff works. From that perspective, this was a great video up to about 3:30. After that, I have no idea WTF he's talking about. He pressed what button? For what? Use a rubber band to measure what? 100 of what? This may be a very useful video for others but the impression it leaves me with is, "If this video is for beginners, I think I need to find some other hobby." I know better than that, I'm sure I could learn with a personal trainer like through the Horizon Hobby RC Flight School but learning anything from this video as a complete beginner? No way.

    • @jerrynorman8978
      @jerrynorman8978 2 роки тому +3

      I agree. For example, the discussion about telemetry should start with what it is, when and why do you use it before jumping right into the "how". In general, a beginner instruction should be consider who, what, when, where, why and how.

  • @martynsolajide6177

    Excellent video. I just bought DX6e for my new Freewing AL37 Airliner and there are 7 connectors nicely labeled as UBEC/BEC, Throttle, aileron, elevator, rudder, landing gear and flaps. I have Specktrum AR620 receiver with 6-channels and one battery conn slot. I also noticed that the DX6e has the channels listed as throttle, aileron, elevator, rudder, gear:flap and AUX1: Left Ail. Does that mean that I have to rename the port 6 from AUX1 to flap in order to utilize the last channel port for flapsI am a little confused as I do not have AUX connection?

    Hi friend, nice video. I have a really big problem I think. Last time
    when I meet a "instructor" to fly my apprentice plane for the first
    time, we linked the transmitter using the trainer port, my DXe spektrum
    did not work at all. I am new with this, but the instructor evidently,
    seemed he did not what he was doing. My DXe stop working , it went off. I
    tried to turn ON , it turned on, it beeps few times , then continue
    beeping constantly. The transmitter is unresponsive, I can not bind back
    to the plane, it continuously beeping. I tried to use with a simulator
    and everything works except for I can not control the speed , I can take
    off but no landing because is at high speed all the time( thaks god is with the simulator). I read that
    the throttle might be bad , hope not.I totally lost. I have not contact
    Horizon yet. The store from where I bought they don't what could be,
    they say , never seen that before, Please advise

    Gracias por su buen video. Su ayuda por favor. Tras ahorrar durante 7 meses para la compra de un buen control remoto, tiempo durante el cual investigue que equipo era el mejor, me decidí por el Spektrum DX6e.
    Luego de un mes utilizando mi DX6e, espesó a presentar problemas con la señal, dado que tengo 5 drones de diferentes tamaños, y todos se caen a 10-15 metros de distancia al control remoto. Pensando que eran los receptores, cambie 3 de ellos, pero igual perdían señal a los 10 metros. Seguíi algunos tutoriales descartando otros problemas como variación en las baterías de alimentación, interferencias por antenas de comunicación y antenas tanto del radio como del receptor.
    Al parecer el del problema es el RF X1TXP, alguna idea o luz como repararlo o donde puedo encontrar un repuesto de este modulo.

    Thanks for the video, very useful.
    Slowly working out my DX6, however where everyone else seems to have THR AIL ELE RUD, mine has ALT ROL PIT YAW. So when ImmersionRC tell me "Travel on channels 1-4 (THR, AIL, ELE, RUD) must be increased to +/- 148
    - Two channels need reversing, AIL, and RUD."
    I get a bit flummoxed.

    • @SpektrumRCvideos

  • @jimvalim1567
    @jimvalim1567 4 роки тому +5

    These radio transmitters are quite sophisticated. There are so many options, it's difficult for a new person to understand everything. The manual that comes with the transmitter is lacking on instructions in some areas. The manual has very little information on dual rates and exponential. It should have very detailed information on how to set up D/R and Expo.

    • @weseehowcommiegoogleis3770

    Would really like to see how to set up the Spektrum for quads. Completely new to the hobby TX and no longer use the included TX that came with the Inductrix and Nano QX. Bought the DXe for simplicity, but would buy the DX6e if I knew how to program it.

    • @SpektrumRCvideos
      @SpektrumRCvideos  7 років тому

      For the Inductrix and Nano QX it really is essentially bind and fly. If you follow these instructions it will help you assign dual rates and expo if you want to use that. Otherwise, to change flight modes, follow our instructions for assigning the I button to gear and you are good to do. FYI
      We will be doing a more indepth multirotor setup video, but that will be geared more toward racing quads.

      Awesome thanks for clarifying! That looks like a basic 4 channel glider. I would say the DX6 would be a great choice for it because it has all the sailplane features you would need as well as voice output, which is nice to have if you use variometer telemetry.

    I just purchased a dx6e and have only used it for a couple hours on a pc sim (15-20 mins at a time over a couple days) and the stock batteries are already throwing a low voltage warning. I was wondering if that was normal for the stock batteries to have that short a lifespan.
    I'm planning on getting a lipo for it but I wanted to make sure there was nothing wrong with the transmitter itself? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    • @SpektrumRCvideos

      Hard to say with AA batteries. Could have been that one was a weak cell. With similar models you would normally get 4-6 hours of run time.

      FYI, when Consumer Reports tested alkaline batteries they found a capacity range of 7X. So name brand/relatively expensive ones costing 4X what you might pay at a discount store ("dollar store", in the US) might actually be a significantly better value, and a lot safer for your model. I put the cheap stuff in things like TV remotes, but pay up for anything controlling an air vehicle. In the case of really cheap batteries, I'm guessing there might not be enough time between a low-voltage warning on the transmitter and range becoming impaired in the middle of a flight.
