Hey, just starting i have already choosen a aircraft and i am now wondering what transmitter I should use? do you have any advice?
I love my spektrum dx8e. It gives me the ability to have a few more channels should I need them in the future. It is about $325.00 Canadian. You can also look at the spektrum dx6e. Which is probably just under $200.00 or right around there. Helicopters need 6 channels, should you want to get into them. I recommend a transmitter with at least 6 channels or 8 for your future projects...
You don't have to have spektrum either. Many brands work just fine...
Another vote for the FlySky iA6.
I like setting my models for dead so that I can handle them safely. To do this I need a easy to program and uniform application of Fail Safe. Sadly from the experiences of Spektrum users the Fail Safe setting can be totally confusing as different "Compatible" receivers support different types of Fail Safe if any at all.
The iA6 Fail Safe is menu driven and once the menu is set there can not be any accidental altering of the Fail Safe settings by bumping the sticks and not juggling act to get the fail safe features required.
Just what works for me!
have fun!
The Fail Safe on Spektrum has three modes, (2 official and one unofficial).Not to take this off topic can you elaborate on this as Spektrum fail safe is throttle goes to zero and holds last inputs weather you do anything or not, just curious. You can set fail safe to hold any inputs you so desire.
Try Lemon RX for DSMX, I have 6 in use, not a single LOS in 18 months of flying them.
I like my DX6e.. It is pretty good, not gonna say it is the best thoHey, just starting i have already choosen a aircraft and i am now wondering what transmitter I should use? do you have any advice?
