Good unit, just bought for my brother, on sale for $130
beautiful sight, sound, video
Very nice 🛫✈️
Thank you for doing this. Awesome info and answers a bunch of questions I had. :)
You are so welcome!
If anybody is still monitoring this, I have a question that I can't find addressed in many youtube searches. If we create an ACRO model (typically power planes) that uses flaps, an item called Flap System will now appear in the Function List. This allows you to designate a switch or stick to operate the flaps and the % up/down that they move. If, however, you create a SAILPLANE model no such Flap System item appears and I can't find any place to specify which input I want to use and the eventual % movement required. Can someone please explain how to manage FLAPS on a Sailplane Model? Thank you, jg
@@jerrygiles1661 set up the proper wing type! It may fall under spoiler too when it comes to sail models. But wing type is best bet.
@@StevesRC , thanks for your reply. The wing type is correct for the plane, 2-ail, 2-flaps exactly as i tried in the ACRO model. Same wing type, different results in the transmitter. I'll keep looking....
Going to go grab a TX and help….
It’s in camber preset I think…
Thank you, Steve.. I'll research that
Huge plus for Spektrum 😍
the smoke is so badass
I moved from a DX18 to the NX7e+ and after doing a few upgrades I really like the NX7e+ now. I am a night flyer so the rope lighting on the face was annoying. I created a left and right side decal 1/4" wide and covered the rope LEDs and that works perfect. I also designed and 3D printed shorter stick tops and they are great. Now I want to upgrade the battery in the transmitter. Amy one done a battery upgrade yet?
Tnx for taking the time to make this video.
Do you have any idea what is going on with the ix14 stepchild transmitter and WIFI failing! I have 2 that will not connect so I can update. Thx
It's s185
It looks like a bobcat skid steer
Yep, I painted it to look like one :)
What processor is IXSR? I am a DX6R user and I know that DX6R has used the "ARM Cortex A7" processor. If the processor has a big performance improvement, I'm thinking about going to IXSR.
Fuck red bull
do you ever get to fly on non windy days?
@@horizonsean8090 doesn’t seem like it :(
Hello, I was wondering how I could become one of your RUclips partners? I did purchase the nx7 I'm getting it today
There is no receiver available for buddy boxing. I checked with Horizon
@@Denny_H what now?
@@StevesRC I know. I have a new student who purchased one without checking with me first. We can't wireless buddy box with it. I cheched with tech support at HH to see if a receiver was available for it and their response was "not at this time". I have no idea why they do that!! Brand new RC pilots are the ones who need buddy box capability and voice commands. 😠
@@Denny_H Ah yes, the NX7E does not have its own internal RX for buddy boxing as the master radio. However, it can absolutely be bound to another radio for buddy boxing. This was an effort to reduce costs knowing that entry level users are typically not doing the training, they are the trainee. Hope this helps clarify.
@@StevesRC I need my student to be able to buddy box wirelessly with his new NX7e. If you have the part # for the external receiver that can be purchased and connected to the NX7e, let me know. According to HH tech support, the NX7e does not have the capability to add a wireless receiver in order to wirelessly buddy box with. Thanks
@@Denny_H Yea, you can't use it as the master but it can be the slave radio. What other radio are you buddy boxing with? That will help me solve your question better...
Outstanding! Synapse at work there. Love the paint scheme...thats the one MP built to land on that heli platform in Dubai. Sweet!
Indeed it is! Synapse is definitely putting in the work in winds like that!
What radio / gyro used?
@@miksterr spektrum iX20SE and Synapse
@@StevesRC nice, gyro is working well there -
@@miksterr oh yea it’s a beast :)
Is there any way this guy could talk any faster? He even gets tired and has to take a deep breath. How did he get a job in promoting product reviews? Looking elsewhere!
@@stevehelton3457 I mean, this is a personal channel… nobody is paying me to make these videos…sorry I’m too fast!
Please, introduce a USB-C charging port on those NX+ models. I can't believe Spektrum still has the old style usb in 2024... if there is ONE thing I hate about my NX8, this is it.
And NOW then i Got MY NX8+, the shit dosnt work... wireless connection. The fuccking Update isn´t working.. This transmitter is as bad as the IX12 i got with a slow internal Tablet. SPEKTRUM SUCKS:
Thanks for all of the info, ive been hopping between RTF radios and im looking into getting one of these so i dont have to do that anymore lol
@steve have a weird model overwrite issue on my nx10. I have a few models created. When I turn on my radio, my first model gets copied over the last model I flew. Only started happening in the last week. Any help appreciated..
The Spectrum battery checker is over priced.I had one and the screen broke on me.The best one is a cellmeter7 battery capacity controller and is only $10.00 on Amazon.
The Spectrum DX18 used to be the king of radios.Only the rich people owned them.
I currently own a DX8 and I learned to fly on a 5 channel long antenna 72 mhz MRC 765 in 1980.My DX8 is good enough for me.I fly sport/pattern planes.
Omg it has the scroll wheel. That’s a deal breaker
@@phillipjensen4362 there’s always the iX version
Oh a Micheal McDowell fan….
Does the NX 8+have a horizontal antenna as well as well as the nx9 in the handle
Yes, it has both.
Had the battery tray printed, thanks for that info too.
Isn’t it nice?
I’m confused as to why you would buy an nx20 at this point then. Yea of course the nx20 is a little nicer but still the main reason why most people bought it was because of the extra channels so why did they buy a $1200 radio when a $400 radio now has the same capability. I feel like this throws people who bought those bigger radios under the bus
Here's a few reasons why, but ultimately it comes down to wants vs. needs. Analogous to owning a luxury car vs. an economy car. The NX20 compared to a NX8... Hall Effect gimbals, larger screen, more physical switches, Alum sliders, nicer grips, etc. Sure, they both can do roughly the same thing, but you do have more options with NX20 than you do with NX8.
What is the update #? 14.?? For the NX6
Change log says 4.0
This is a HUGH DEAL! How did I just stumble upon this?! 20 channels for $400?! This is game changing! Thank you for this great video.
Thanks for watching! It’s a great deal for sure :)
Good to see you’re still at it! I watched you a lot when I first started flying RC helis.. then I’ve been into DJI drones, came back to a couple of planes, now I want to return to my roots, so to speak. I still have a (venerable) 300 cfx I’ve NEVER FLOWN, and I may get another old heli, the 230 s, But I am thinking I should get a newer radio too at some point.. it’s been ten year and I am still using my DX8! I told my wife back when I got it, “I can use this thing to fly anything in the store for years!”… so other than the drones that came with their own radios, that has been true. But with newer Smart batteries and newer smart aircraft models, I’m thinking I should upgrade my radio too. But there is nothing weong with it.. it’s mint! It still works the same as the first day I got it!
Glad you’re back in the cool part of the hobby :)
Hi sir. honest question I'm going to buy a new rig. What would u recommend a beginner jet or plane would be. I fly fpv drones an rc trucks just never owned an airplane. Thanks for any help
If you’re looking for a beginner jet, the habu STS is perfect. My favorite all around trainer is the aero scout. Can’t go wrong with either.
@StevesRC good advice thank you. What about a good transmitter for the air plane something under 100 or 150
Just grab an NX7e
What a rip off it should be available on its own if you just want a gyro for your turbine
There are plenty of other lessor performing gyros that are stand alone out there. This is designed to work with a specific set of hardware.
Steve. it would be awesome IF you could update the transmitter and then update all your receivers through the transmitter! I've got a lot of receivers to update. Mainly ar636t's
That’s a slick idea!
NX 20 would you put a 25,000 jet on this NX 20 that failed first d time out of the box ??
How did it fail? If service checks it out, then yes and I have flown plenty of bespoke models on spektrum!
I just purchased a NX 20 reght out of the box after charging the tx battery it high throttle alarm went off I have a DX18 QQ but it can not be upgraded has no specker. I am not happy Horizon use to check every TX for operation but that was 10 years ago or more. o this TX NX 20 had to be returned and I am not sure I want to go thrugh 3 hours on the phone to the serivce center so think twice befor eyou By from Horizon Hobby.
Use the chat function, request a call back. Take the call, send the radio in. Super simple.
Thank you!
No update for the dx8?
Just NX and IX. The DX line isn’t going to be receiving new updates any further. The hardware cannot support the new stuff.
@@StevesRC OK thank u...probably time to update reciever
@@StevesRC can new firmware on reciever be used with dx8 if I update to new firmware already ?
Just bought mine last week. I was told that with the latest update, it doubles all the channels going from 7 to 14 channels! It’s amazing how much more this transmitter offers and yet still cheaper than the DX line. Excited to start using it.
I am trying to set up a new NX8+ and there are some differences between the older NX8 and the updated NX8+. The manual has a channel input config screen from the NX8. It shows 5 Aux channels. The actually screen on the NX8+ has no Aux channels. The RUclips videos for the nx8 all direct that the SAFE select switch be programmed to Aux2. I can't get the switching set up on the NX8+ for switchable between beginner, intermediate, and advanced. When I bind the new transmitter it only comes up in beginner mode.
I hear ya man...I got the new NX8+ a few weeks ago, trying to set up my Spirit 100, electric conversion. I FINALLY got my thro cut programmed, and went to a different mode to assign a switch for my flaps, and now my thro. and thro. cut off switch dissent work !! I'm about ready to return mine.. Good luck with yours !!
Nice camera work. What camera and lenses were used.
iPhone ;)
I have the nx6. Does this mean I can now buy 8 and 10 channel receivers and bind them?
Yep
I had the twist 60 with a os 91 fx That is the best engine for it . I flew it until the engine wore out. They cost 200.00 back then but are now 280.00 They takeoff and land easy, easy to transport .
How do you use spektrumnx 8 + 20 channels ?
Are the drive wheels hydraulic too?
@@P_double_H they are driven by a brushed motor.
