    I think it has Integrated Telemetry too, probably a temp sensor and a RPM backplate sensor. It also looks like the sticks are closer together than a DX6i which is a good thing. Looks gr8.

            I think I'll stick with my DSX9 - not pretty at all, looks like someone's attacked a DX6i with some spare switches and a tube of superglue...

                Ditto. Looks like IKEA have had input in the design.

                    Anyone know if it is the faster 11ms frame rate? And if it is have they cracked a way of it still working with a sim?

                    I'd put up with the looks for the features, I always look at the heli .

                        Good question Mike.

                        I can't believe they would turn out another radio that doesn't support the sim.

                              See I quite liked my dx6i yes it looks cack but I thought the menus were laid out better and I like the thumb wheel. The dx7 I love now. The dx8 is butt ugly!
