  • Dx8 versions

    Hi all,

    Does anybody know if there are different versions / revisions of the DX8? Just looking at the advert from Kings Lynn models, and the picture seems to show some differences from other pictures ... In particular, the backlight is shown as orange, and some of the logos on the front to the right of the screen look different?

    Spektrum DX8 TX and Charger Only - Instock

    Is this like the DX6i, whereby there were earlier (non DSMX) versions ?

    I think the only revisions were on internal things like the way the pots connected to the board. The first DX8's that had all the problems had little plug in sockets on the gimbles and these came loose with continuous stick movements. That has been updated to soldered wires like JR and Futaba have used for years. (Don't forget the DX7 was built by JR not Spektrum)

    Other than that, it's only software upgrades AFAIK.
