What is the range of a Spektrum DX6e?
Spektrum has never clearly stated a range. I usually tell people that 1500 feet is a good working range and 2000 feet is still probably quite safe.
Does Spektrum DX6e have voice?
The DX6e is more affordable than the DX6, but doesn’t come with a voice alert, which the DX6 has. However, the DX6e has an external mode change, has one less programmable mix, and only supports regular swashplates in heli mode, while the DX6 offers more programmable mixes.
Is futaba better than Spektrum?
If you like innovative features, style, a feeling of quality, ease of programming , BNFs, and “great customer service”: Spektrum hands down. If reliability is the most important aspect to you: No contest, Futaba. Doesn’t seem to matter if it’s FHSS, FAsst, or FAsstest.
Why choose the dx6i for aircraft programming?
The 6-channel DX6i includes software for airplanes and helicopters as well as benefits like ModelMatch™ technology and 10-model memory. Programming the DX6i is about as intuitive as it gets. The combination of its Simple Scroll™ interface, easy-to-read LCD screen and simplified menu navigation will immediately put first-time programmers at ease.
Can you use a dx6i transmitter with a heli simulator?
ALWAYS use HELI for the transmitter mode to a heli simulator. Set up a separate DX6i model for the sim (and possibly a separate one for sim calibration). Calibrate the sim to the DX6i BEFORE customizing the DX6i settings. Recognise that all the DX6i can send to the simulator is the channel values (not the switch positions).
How to bind dx6i to remote receiver?
So, how to Bind dx6i? First, adjust the transmitter and install the primary receiver in the aircraft. Connect the remote receiver with a power generator. Connect the bind plug with the remote receiver. The LEDs of the receivers will start to blink.
How do you fly a plane on a DX6?
You are flying a heli, best configure the control to be like a heli. If you then fly a plane, switch to a plane TX model. Allow your DX6i to be more than a dual joystick input, use the gyro channel for a switch. Let flight modes change the collective and throttle values. You should not use your actual model parameters on the sim.
