            At last... They have seen the light and put in an SD Card. One question... is it like the SE and minus the 3.5mm Jack for Sims? I hope they saw the error of their ways and put it back on.

              I left the hobby 3 years ago and discovered Women.

              I wish I never left.

                  I just think that looks cheap and nasty. Personally I wouldnt mind paying a bit more for any Spektrum product so that it has a bit more quality to it with some cutting edge designs.

                  Its main competition is going to be the JS DSX9, which is one of the best looking TX's out there.




                  Who would want an 8 channel one of these?!

                    dont like the looks one bit as is a dx6i but some of the tech it can do is impressive.

                      I know what your saying paul,if your spending hundreds of pounds on a TX you want it to look the part at least and not like a cheap 2 channel TX which the DX6i does!

                          reading the specs, this looks to be a pretty good radio - I think i might have to upgrade when it arrives

                            LOL You think the DX8 looked bad! Check out their plans for a 10 Channel transmitter!

                              Interesting how Spektrum have got away with building this, as it is my understanding that the aggreement between JR and Spektrum was that Spektrum would build and sell upto and including 7 channels, and JR would build and sell 8 and above channels.

                              Still, as Paul said, looks crap, and I much rather the DX9. I held a JR DSX12 at the Weston Park show, that thing weighs a ton! And is very thick in the hands.
