Horizonhobby.com Spektrum DX8 Sneak peek

You can find more information regarding the DX8 at this Link: http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=SPM8800

We had an opportunity to look at the features of the new offering from Spektrum and it appears this radio is going to be a dream for RC pilots of every skill level. There are so many features that it is difficult to outline even a small percentage of them here. Our video will give you an idea of the basics but it goes well beyond this level. Check the link above and go to horizonhobby.com for an overall list of functions and features. The stick timer and telemetry features set it apart from any other radio in its price class.

Any news about the DX10?

the flat ,square one?(I've got my mind set on it) updates please!. Will it be available here in the states?

Oh by the way, your video is very clear and sharp!, that's how videos should be.

Those of us who fly R/C know what's going on here..

@RoseBowlFlyer26 We had Chris Huhn on our Podcast, the R/Cast, a few weeks ago. He stated that the DX10 will be coming Stateside, however no specific announcement time frame has been given.

I am exceedingly excited about getting this radio. "Cash in hand, waiting!"

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@johnschenck You can always pre-order one on the Horizon Hobby Website

[lockpicker2k]

Thank you Running Bear & Little White Dove!? ;-P

But seriously, I think it looks fantastic despite what some knit pickers may say! Personally I'll take features and performance over looks any day. Glad I held off almost a year on buying a new Tx, this one seems perfect for me. Can't wait!

One question...What about future firmware updates? Can this be done now at home by the user?

[MischievousIQ]

@RoseBowlFlyer26 most afeminent men are....it's okay really!

[LunarW0lf]

How do you look at your Telemetry while flying?...

...without crashing?...

[hartrockets]

I have seen videos of problems with the DX8 with some causing the model to crash. Was this a hardware or software fault and more importantly have they been sorted yet? As I really want to get one.
