Thank you for this! I still watch it to make sure I’m doing it right. It’s still the best controller out there. One more piece of advice- if you can’t get the arrows perfect you can sub trim them to the middle.Thanks again sir.
Thank you for this video! I noticed yesterday while getting reacquainted my DX6i that when checking MONITOR mode the calibrations were off. Your video helped me to get them to near perfect!
You are a very easy to understand assum teacher. I wood like to thank you for lesson. I just bought a Vibe fifty Nex copter. My remote is a DX6i. I was really hoping u could show me how to bind with it so I can pilot this beast.
Great video. Thanks. Centre all trims before you start. This is critical. I tried it and initially lost my throttle altogether as I hadn't noticed that the trim was all in. Once centred it worked like a charm. Thanks.
Thanks for the video, had no idea about the calibration. One thing I noticed is that after first doing the calibration I thought it hadn't worked. But then I zeroed all my trims and checked the monitor and it was perfect. If mentioned in the video I had just missed it.
I must admit I did forget that but but glad you are OK with it. This is info that they don't want people to know I think. I found out by experimenting because my DX6 was miles out, so thought I would share it for free :-)
Followed exactly ... Worked great, thank you.... It still doesn't make me able to pilot my new quad too well .... Ah, well - practice makes perfect !..
Great Video. i tried the first time to set mine up and it was not doing like yours. i got to looking around and found my TH Hold switch was loose and it was backwards . i turned it around , and it went back thru the video and it was spot on .. thank you
Thank you very much for this video ! Very useful !!! I can´t understand that Horizon did not printed this calibration procedure in the manual those days. By the way, did some of you guys noticed that a checksum of the ROM and a Firmware-Date is displayed for a second or two after you use the special key combination and then disappears after you let go those two trim buttons, then the calibration menu is displayed. Might be helpful too for some of us to know how old the firmware is. Mine displays something from 2013...
Topvideos1001 Finally managed to sort it after trying loads of times like you mention in video . . .I just used the black buttons with red arrows each side.. .Great video and have enjoyed other videos of yours
Do you have to calibrate every model nimber? Because in my situation model number 3 is not calibrated, the 4 channels are not centered and when i ON my tx with the procedure, the number is not displayed instead and when i put the flaf switch to 1 the TAER and numbers will display! weared?
Hi , great video thanks so much ... Question throttle in dead center position will still get full throttle traveling on airplanes or this way is for 3d helicopter ? Thanks
Thank you very much, I remember when I bought my HK-500GT. I never read the manual for the DX6i. All were on power. I do not know which button I hooked on and the helicopter began to turn in full speed. it made me so scared that I never touch again this helicopter.
This was really educational and ill keep it in my tool box for other flights . Can you tell me how to change the stick config as the right stick when moved to the right would make my delta wing go down move right and it would go up or flare push it up and it turns right down left. and this is the reason i have not flown yet. I want the right stick up make the plane go down back up left left and right go right can you video a responce please?
Great video but I have a question. I am using this DX6 controller to drive an electric cart I made.I use the aileron control on the right to steer it left and right. I move it to the left and the cart goes to the left. How can I change the orientation so when I push it left it goes right?
Simple, there is, in the main menu an option to reverse the control, if no luck then get a servo reverser they are cheap as chips. Good luck. Here -- www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QISJQBC/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00QISJQBC&linkCode=as2&tag=multibladehel-20
Yea I must agree a great video and something a lot off people might not realise. I checked mine a few weeks ago and they were slightly off so this video really helped me a lot to check to see if they were correct plus to also get them set perfectly once I knew they were slightly off so great vid all round and a massive thanks as it's worked a treat and helped me get my settings perfect. Nice one bud really appreciate the help!!!!! :)
hi i did this in my DX6i everything set to zero except the rudder. that is still almost all the way to the left. when i push left, it goes near the middle. when i push right, it hardly moves at all. Can you help? thanks
Does this apply to all saved models in radio or just the one selected? In other words, do we need to repeat 10 times or just one? Thanks, excellent tip by the way.
hello there. i tried to calibrate my dx61 but when i switch the th hold to 1 and the rest on 0, when i switch the tx on while the trims are pushed towards the inside, the monitor shows *-*-*-tr hold-*-*-* and beems intermittently. it doesnt show what your video shows with all the numbers. thanks
When I turned on my radio with the two trim switched held as shown,my radio screen just went blank.I did the cal anyways and it still seemed to work.Weird!
ps Actually did not mean to offend you my comment was directed at myself ! Seems my DX6i has a fault anyway.If I move my sticks around in monitor screen the cursors move all except for the throttle cursor that stays stuck to the right hand side of the screen (Mode 2) Changed to Mode 1 & is the elevator cursor that does not move.Suspect faulty potentiometer the left hand vertical axis stick on a hardly used transmitter.Date code shows it is not due the Spektrum known fault recall. Should have stuck with Futaba but wanted a DSM2 transmitter for ARTF Blade MCPX etc. Spektrum seems poor quality to me.
Is this done prior to setting up a model and binding? Or do all that first then check? My remote is brand new, I haven't even turned it on yet along with my E Flite Timber. I have not binded yet or set up a model.
I noticed that after you calibrated it and then turned on the Radio, your digital trim on your RUDDER channel was not centred... you then entered your Monitor and all 4 Stick Channels were set to centre.... should Users make sure all Digital Trims are set to "Centre" before Stick Calibration...?
+Topvideos1001 I was wondering if you were aware that your RUDD trim was not Centred when you calibrated the sticks..... you can clearly see the digital trim is not center when you show the results on the Monitor, and it's all aligned without the RUDD trim centre at the 5:16 mark.....
The video was done with lots of editing, so it may have been "an add on video clip" to make the video work. I did about 3 takes and stitched them all together. But the sequence is still the same.
Great explanation! Just a quibble, not a strong criticism, though. In my opinion, it is not really "quite simple", it is more "rather straightforward". Quite simple is operating at most 2 switches, not holding trim tabs while turning on, and running 2 runs for the high and low sides.. Straightforward is what this is, a series of steps that border on complex, but nontheless achievable as long as you follow directions.
Yeah, maybe. I had a physics professor use the term "rather straightforward" to describe stuff like Einstein's Field equations. It became a joke in our class that "straightforward" was code for "mind-bogglingly complex". But he never said they were "simple".
Followed the instructions on your video and the arrows lined up except the ele which is little more than halfway to the left of center. When I move the stick it only moves abit to the right then stops. Any ideas. Thanks for any help.
WOW, I just upgraded to a DX8....the 3 1/2 years Ive been using my Dx6i..that would have been good to know....How in the world did you find this out?...maybe I havent been researching my tx's lately
Aha, hmm... I had one Spektrum DX6i Transmitter that had a MECHANICAL problem. I open it and found that the potentiometers (connected to the sticks) are mechanically bad, means, they where loosely mechanically connected to the sticks! So no wunder the arrows in the monitor jumped back and forth around the center.
Yes, but the problem with my model was, that mechanically the potentiometer was LOSLY connected to the Stick... so there was always a "gap" ... it has to be replaced.
As I suspected. Took the transmitter apart (Plenty of videos on YT for that) Cleaned the potentiometer, re-assembled and then ran through this calibration again. Everything working fine again. Thanks again
i followed every step but my helicopter still isnt calibrated,any tips? also how can i add the light feature? and how can i make the controllers move a little slower for the heli to react? thank you
How can I set an accessory switch? when I sart the transmitter wizard, it does not recognize any of the accesory sticks, it does recognize the gear channel but I already use that for my attitude/rate mode. Could you tell me how to set/setup an assecory stick on my Dx6I?
Maurits Veerman Easy, just go in the main menu for your choice and and click on the INH box, and that will activate the chosen switch on the screen. Download the manual here -- www.horizonhobby.com/pdf/DX6i-Manual_EN.pdf
Topvideos1001 where's the discussion tab? and what do you mean by: just go in the main menu for your choice and and click on the INH box, where is that located at?
The discussion tab is in my UA-cam channel just click on my Topvideos1001 avatar. The main menu is the set up list, on the screen. Just hit the scroll roller.
Hi, Im using a DX7 for something different, I have a mechanical limit on the knob (about 1/3 of the full movement).... Am I correct in presuming that I can "range" this motion to be recognised as full travel? I don't have the TX with me at the moment so cannot try. Thanks.
Thanks... i know how to adjust servo travel (ie 50%travel) in relation to full throw of the sticks per say..... was curious if you can get 100% servo travel from a tiny movement of the stick or knob, by "cheating" the calibration....Thanks anyway.
Hi, thankyou for your upload, Ive been having trouble with my DX6i in that the Aileron on the monitor menu is moving randomly and thought i'd give your video guide a go, unfortunately it didnt fix my issue and believe it to be the 'pot' thats at fault? Would you be able to help confirm this is the issue? Many Thanks Dave
All sorted now guys, thx for your replys tho, I ended up takin it apart myself and cleaning the Aileron Pot....works a treat now an no more glitch in flights :D
I got it to work. i did the calibration. 3 times and all my line does not line up. I dont know why. i followed your vid set up and another guys vid. the rudder and ail. are off by a tiny bit.. the rudder i have to use sub trim at 83 to get it to line up.. dont get it.
Très bien, bien expliqué et images très belles... Merci pour le travail... JC

Merci beaucoup pour le complément Sir .
Could I possibly pay you to teach me to to binde and set it up the right way please
Thank you for this! I still watch it to make sure I’m doing it right. It’s still the best controller out there. One more piece of advice- if you can’t get the arrows perfect you can sub trim them to the middle.Thanks again sir.
Thank you for this video! I noticed yesterday while getting reacquainted my DX6i that when checking MONITOR mode the calibrations were off. Your video helped me to get them to near perfect!
Nicely done, good camera work. Note: My monitor screen's arrows did not center until I zeroed out my sub trims.

I found out by experimenting because my DX6 was miles out, so thought I would share it for free :-)
Great video! As other reviewers stated. I never new about this feature. I wonder why the manual doesn't explain this. Thank you so very much.
This is really awesome! Thank you for showing us how to perform such an obscure procedure!
My pleasure, please feel free to share it around to help others.
This is the sort of info us beginners need - thanks so much for posting
Omg, thanks for this. Had my spektrum for 18 months, and it's haven't been calibrated for this entire time. Gonna be fun to fly next time ;)
Have fun :-)
Brilliant, I am a rookie and use a DX6i with boats. my Rudder was out and my throttle but not anymore !!! Thank you
Followed exactly ... Worked great, thank you.... It still doesn't make me able to pilot my new quad too well .... Ah, well - practice makes perfect !..
cadcamandy1 LOL Keep practicing ;-)
Great Video. i tried the first time to set mine up and it was not doing like yours. i got to looking around and found my TH Hold switch was loose and it was backwards . i turned it around , and it went back thru the video and it was spot on .. thank you

Wow! This is new to me as well. Will check and get back. Thanks a ton!
we need more guys like u in this hobby
Thank you very much :-)
Bravo. Followed procedure and everything in the center.
Found the problem, I had to select model two that didn't have anything setup on that channel. Everything is good Thanks, enjoyed your video
Glad you are sorted out, cheers for the compliment :-)
Topvideos1001 Finally managed to sort it after trying loads of times like you mention in video . . .I just used the black buttons with red arrows each side.. .Great video and have enjoyed other videos of yours
Glad it worked OK and thank you very much for the compliment ;-)
Thank you so much. I thought my Tx was damaged somehow because even trim adjustment wasn't helping. All set now!
Love the back light feature as well.
Did that myself ;-)
mine did not go to that menu with all the positions set to zero and holding the two switches in.
Most excellent instruction!!! Even a beginner like me can follow...many thanks!

Great info. I would be lost without it. Thanks a bunch.
+Richard McMahon
Glad to help.
It worked after after settings SUB TRIMS to zeros. Thank you so much!
My pleasure, glad it is all OK now :-)
Great video, Will be ordering soon a DX6i , these instructions also work on the Hobby King Orange T6 transmitter.
I don't know about the Orange Tx so cant say, I have never seen one sorry.
Do you have to calibrate every model nimber? Because in my situation model number 3 is not calibrated, the 4 channels are not centered and when i ON my tx with the procedure, the number is not displayed instead and when i put the flaf switch to 1 the TAER and numbers will display! weared?

Thanks so much man my heli fly's better now and it was way off now 100% better thanks man
Awesome video love ...how do you put backlights in the DX6i pls
Thank you very much, I remember when I bought my HK-500GT. I never read the manual for the DX6i. All were on power. I do not know which button I hooked on and the helicopter began to turn in full speed. it made me so scared that I never touch again this helicopter.
This calibration is not in the manual.
Colin Male
Would this work for a JR transmitter? My throttle stick moves OK but the arrow does not always move in time with the stick.
Thanks.
This was really educational and ill keep it in my tool box for other flights .
Can you tell me how to change the stick config as the right stick when moved to the right would make my delta wing go down move right and it would go up or flare push it up and it turns right down left. and this is the reason i have not flown yet.
I want the right stick up make the plane go down back up left left and right go right can you video a responce please?

Thank you! Plan on purchasing a DX6 in the future. This may help avoid some headaches! ;-) Cheers!
Love your videos
My backlighting is so dim. How did you get your so bright?
Had no idea about this! Excellent video!
You only do the Gyro Switch On/Off *once* after the first procedure? not once after each procedure?
Thank you so much my friend
hi
i did this in my DX6i everything set to zero except the rudder. that is still almost all the way to the left. when i push left, it goes near the middle. when i push right, it hardly moves at all.
Can you help?

Brilliantly clear thank you very much.
Thank you Sir.

Awesome well presented video!
hello there. i tried to calibrate my dx61 but when i switch the th hold to 1 and the rest on 0, when i switch the tx on while the trims are pushed towards the inside, the monitor shows *-*-*-tr hold-*-*-* and beems intermittently. it doesnt show what your video shows with all the numbers. thanks
Amazing, thank you for this share!
Does this calibrate for all models or just the one that is loaded at the time?
When I turned on my radio with the two trim switched held as shown,my radio screen just went blank.I did the cal anyways and it still seemed to work.Weird!
Thank you so much for this video, it helps a lot. :)
Thanks for that great tutorial. It worked out well for my DX6i after replacing one gimbal.
Great news glad to help.
great video, thanks!
Very good, and detailed video my brother. Good information to have as it just so happens I have the DX6i ;-) I will try this for sure!
Thanks for the compliment : -) Only needs doing if your settings are effecting the flight, mainly for Helicopters and Quadcopters etc.
Thank you for posting it was very useful.
Glad to help.

Thanks for the vid, a big help.
Hello sir. It does not work on mine dx6i. I follow the video step by step but the arrows always on the same spot. Quite off centre. Any idea?
Is this done prior to setting up a model and binding? Or do all that first then check? My remote is brand new, I haven't even turned it on yet along with my E Flite Timber. I have not binded yet or set up a model.
Check it first, but it makes no difference really.
omg I never knew this thank you, Mine was out a bit , Should fly so much better now :)) Answer ya phone lol
As for the phone it was my Mother-out-law :-)
I noticed that after you calibrated it and then turned on the Radio, your digital trim on your RUDDER channel was not centred... you then entered your Monitor and all 4 Stick Channels were set to centre.... should Users make sure all Digital Trims are set to "Centre" before Stick Calibration...?
Yes zero everything.
okies... I just noticed that your Rudder Trim wasn't centred and the Monitor showed all 4 primary channels were aligned....
The rudder trim was out of line, but after celebration it came in line with all the other parameters.
To be honest I am not sure what you mean.
+Topvideos1001
I was wondering if you were aware that your RUDD trim was not Centred when you calibrated the sticks..... you can clearly see the digital trim is not center when you show the results on the Monitor, and it's all aligned without the RUDD trim centre at the 5:16 mark.....
The video was done with lots of editing, so it may have been "an add on video clip" to make the video work.
I did about 3 takes and stitched them all together.
But the sequence is still the same.
Great explanation!
Just a quibble, not a strong criticism, though.
In my opinion, it is not really "quite simple", it is more "rather straightforward". Quite simple is operating at most 2 switches, not holding trim tabs while turning on, and running 2 runs for the high and low sides.. Straightforward is what this is, a series of steps that border on complex, but nontheless achievable as long as you follow directions.
Founder member of the pedants club I take it? lol
Yeah, maybe. I had a physics professor use the term "rather straightforward" to describe stuff like Einstein's Field equations. It became a joke in our class that "straightforward" was code for "mind-bogglingly complex". But he never said they were "simple".

+Darryl Smith
Thanks mate, I am going to do some more videos very soon when the stuff turns up.
Followed the instructions on your video and the arrows lined up except the ele which is little more than halfway to the left of center. When I move the stick it only moves abit to the right then stops. Any ideas. Thanks for any help.
Mike Gaines Was the ele out before you started the calibration.
WOW, I just upgraded to a DX8....the 3 1/2 years Ive been using my Dx6i..that would have been good to know....How in the world did you find this out?...maybe I havent been researching my tx's lately
Everything needs calibration, it is just a matter of finding the right way to do it.
good point
James Cureton Jr. I do tend to mess about with things, and I try to find out how they work, but sometimes it bites me on the ass ;-(
ha haa....me too!
Can't you just use trim buttons to get the arrows on the centre?
Thanks for the great info it worked on mine!
Glad to help, please add on the net anywhere you like.
Just subscribed to you :-)
great video, thank you very much for sharing!
+profilefan
My pleasure hope it helps.
I’ve done this five times following the video to the letter and there has been absolutely no change...
Aha, hmm... I had one Spektrum DX6i Transmitter that had a MECHANICAL problem.
I open it and found that the potentiometers (connected to the sticks) are mechanically bad, means, they where loosely mechanically connected to the sticks!
So no wunder the arrows in the monitor jumped back and forth around the center.
Well they are only plastic after all but they can be calibrated to the molding discrepancies you describe.
Yes, but the problem with my model was, that mechanically the potentiometer was LOSLY connected to the Stick... so there was always a "gap" ... it has to be replaced.
Any reason why the bottom left number reads in the 80's on your controller but mine reads in the low 20's?
Where in mins on the video ?
It worked fine, but I think I have a sticky Aileron pot. I will take the back off ans blow out the pot. and try again. Many thanks
As I suspected. Took the transmitter apart (Plenty of videos on YT for that) Cleaned the potentiometer, re-assembled and then ran through this calibration again. Everything working fine again. Thanks again
Awesome! Thank you so much! :)
an important thing to note or this will not work right. you need to have a linear throttle curve set. 0-25-50-75-100
Great info...I subscribed!
Thank you ;-)
Top...Thank YOU for your sub to me. I only have two vids there but it does make a person feel good to know that others might share the same interests.
I know this is super old...but we’re your trims neutral?
Is the calibration important for quad-copter as well?
Yes very much so, and Helicopters as they are both more sensitive to small errors.
I have followed the calibration procedure all sticks seam to be centred in the monitor screen accept the elevator. can you please help. thank you.
Did you centre all sub trims first ?
Thank you Sir
Just tried this my Aileron and Elevator still dont go to the center>?
i followed every step but my helicopter still isnt calibrated,any tips? also how can i add the light feature? and how can i make the controllers move a little slower for the heli to react?
thank you
Make your D/R lower and add EXPO to make your heli LESS responsive.
How can I set an accessory switch? when I sart the transmitter wizard, it does not recognize any of the accesory sticks, it does recognize the gear channel but I already use that for my attitude/rate mode. Could you tell me how to set/setup an assecory stick on my Dx6I?

Hi, Im using a DX7 for something different, I have a mechanical limit on the knob (about 1/3 of the full movement).... Am I correct in presuming that I can "range" this motion to be recognised as full travel? I don't have the TX with me at the moment so cannot try. Thanks.
+Sam Nicholson
Is there a error inside the main body ?
No... fully functional.... but i have added a lever with end stops....
+Sam Nicholson
There is a function that you can access to add servo travel in the menu.
Thanks... i know how to adjust servo travel (ie 50%travel) in relation to full throw of the sticks per say..... was curious if you can get 100% servo travel from a tiny movement of the stick or knob, by "cheating" the calibration....Thanks anyway.
I see, Only by a
channel switch. eg gear etc.
I followed your video 3 times and my THR, AIL and ELE are still off center.. Do I have to put all my settings to factory default before I do it?
No, just make sure the sub trims are at zero.
Hi, thankyou for your upload, Ive been having trouble with my DX6i in that the Aileron on the monitor menu is moving randomly and thought i'd give your video guide a go, unfortunately it didnt fix my issue and believe it to be the 'pot' thats at fault? Would you be able to help confirm this is the issue?
Many Thanks
Dave
How can I do that ?
talk to horizon hobby they'll fix up the tx
All sorted now guys, thx for your replys tho, I ended up takin it apart myself and cleaning the Aileron Pot....works a treat now an no more glitch in flights :D
Dave ZX6R Good result ;-)
I take it you set all servo SUB TRIMS to Zero first along with Servo reverse to N-ormal
Yes, that is correct.
Just that mine was something like that but sub trim was about 20 clicks off
All must be at neutral to set the internal memory with this method. Then it should all be OK.
Nice one.....
I turn it on like you do with the trims pointed inwards and i cant get to that first screen
+raskco09
Did you put the Throttle hold /mix Switch to on? (Because this opens the memory) and all the others to OFF! before you started ????
I got it to work. i did the calibration. 3 times and all my line does not line up. I dont know why. i followed your vid set up and another guys vid. the rudder and ail. are off by a tiny bit.. the rudder i have to use sub trim at 83 to get it to line up.. dont get it.
When I switch on with the two trims held towards the centre my screen goes dark, no numbers visible? Any ideas?
Whoops, one of the switches wasn't on zero, ok now.
