Spektrum DX6e: bit.ly/Spektrum...
The new radio from Spektrum is one of the most affordable 6Ch transmitter in the market! Andrew shows the different functionalities of the radio, explain how to switch from mode 2 to mode 1 and then explain how to bind the drone Zeyrok to the DX6e.
The DX6e gives you more than you ever thought possible from a 6-channel radio. Four model types, 250-model memory, wireless trainer link - you get it all and more. You can even share model setups with users of other Spektrum transmitters.

I cannot believe I finally found this video. So informative. It should be the first video every DX6e owner should watch, a staple!! thanks so much!!!!

Picking up a gently used one this evening...will need to watch this again for sure! Thank you for your thorough explanation!

With changing different modes, don’t change it too often, it can cause problems as a friend of mine found, it stuffed up big time . Better to just choose which setup you want and go from there.

sNstRflyEr Mine sent another one of my planes into a nose dive today. Whenever I try using rates or anything beyond basic UMX use, the damn thing sends my planes into a nose dive. Its like its locked up or something. Been doing it since day one. As long as I only fly basic, its fine. I set up a UMX T-28 this morning EXACTLY as the book stated so you can use the gear switch for Beginner, intermediate, advanced mode buy assigning switches and when I switched to intermediate, the plane went nuts, as if the transmitter lost the receiver, it ended up in tall grass, no damage. Had it been my large T - 28, scrap! Crap DX 6i anyways!

Louis Petherbridge 1 second ago I have a DX6e and replaced the x4 AA batteries with a lipo pack - and found the pack kept going flat over night -- discovered transmitter has an over voltage built in safety so switches its self back on --- pain in the butt --- over came the problem by installing a separate switch between the pack and transmitter --- transmitter needs to be switch off 1st to maintain the last flight info then battery isolated by the separate switch --- now full voltage and no overnight drain

I bought this radio and have been trying to figure it out. It doesn't quite operate the way this video describes. Anyway, I followed the video's example and changed from Mode 2 to Mode 1 and now for some reason the radio is stuck on "WARNING - Throttle High". How do I get out of this?

@robtooyi6746 7 жыл бұрын

I like the new setup with this radio. I have the DXe, and it's an awesome radio, but I like this one better, especially with the programming screen. Are there two different DX6e radios? I have seen two different ones on KZfaq, and was wondering. They had different toggle switches.

If you have 2 of the same type of aircraft you can make multiple models of them on the transmitter so you'll be able to do that.

Gracias por su buen video. Su ayuda por favor. Tras ahorrar durante 7 meses para la compra de un buen control remoto, tiempo durante el cual investigue que equipo era el mejor, me decidí por el Spektrum DX6e. Luego de un mes utilizando mi DX6e, espesó a presentar problemas con la señal, dado que tengo 5 drones de diferentes tamaños, y todos se caen a 10-15 metros de distancia al control remoto. Pensando que eran los receptores, cambie 3 de ellos, pero igual perdían señal a los 10 metros. Seguíi algunos tutoriales descartando otros problemas como variación en las baterías de alimentación, interferencias por antenas de comunicación y antenas tanto del radio como del receptor. Al parecer el del problema es el RF X1TXP, alguna idea o luz como repararlo o donde puedo encontrar un repuesto de este modulo. La verdad algo desilusionado de Spektrum

I need your help recently I bought a Drones spedix 250 pro and RC spektrum dx6e both compatible according to amain. I have tried to link without success, they know how I can link both teams.

@BaloSurf 6 жыл бұрын

I went through the same thing with my new Spedix Black Knight 250 and new Spektrum DX6e. Very frustrating. I wanted to set them both on fire in the driveway. However, after not getting any response back from Spedix I decided to go all out and determined to figure this stuff out. It paid off. First - there are some good videos from Buddy RC: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gMB7g8Rnz7Wqp2w.html (and) (and) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/adNpmqZm1Jy7nYU.html (and) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ecpompCb0rbeqnk.html If you go step by step, this works out very well and got mine in the air. Yeah - I had to do it multiple times to get it right, and it was frustrating at first, but I'm now glad I had to go through all the misery because now I now how to use CleanFlight and my DX6e very well. One thing I did find is that in the video they mention to orient the quad at 180 degrees. That is not correct. You have to make sure that you set up everything as shown in the videos, except the 180 degree thing. Take your time and it will work. I found stock settings for the Spedix Black Knight 210 and loaded that into CleanFlight for the 250. Could not find any stock settings for the BK250. It was not perfect, but a good place to start if your Spedix settings were messed up, missing, or you messed them up. Go here ( www.rcgroups.com/forums/thumbgallery.php?t=2893063&do=threadgallery&type=files&group=none&starter=no ) for the stock 210 settings and watch this video to load them into CleanFlight: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jbN4pKx5tdC0eYE.html You will also need to follow the steps in the videos to get your transmitter set up properly. Go through all 3 Buddy RC videos several times. I found it confusing at first, but it made perfect sense after I tried a few times. Pay close attention to the videos above, and you should be a happy flier soon! Again, I wanted to light mine on fire and give up. Glad I stuck with it. Flies great, and now I'm familiar with my equipment. Makes a big difference. The mystery has gone and the flying is good.

A word of caution with this radio, and others like it. The power button is the worst design ever. It has a tendency to lock up when you press it and I have used my radio a lot, never to excess in pressing power on or off. Once out of warranty spektrum will suck you in with their service costs and you are better off getting a better radio. I like most of their stuff, but this model with that power switch is a really bad idea. Just trying to help

It easier to setup the Zeyrok as plane mode because it's a very simple drone. A racing drone will have to use the multi rotor mode in order to have all the settings available. Cheers

@modelflight 14 күн бұрын

@ericwills777 great to see you are catching up with our video from seven years ago on the Spektrum DX6e. This video was shot at the time of release and was focused on some of the main questions we were getting from Australian consumers as the transmitter was released. These related to Mode changing and the bind process specifically. Yes, the product also comes with a very extensive manual and offers a lot of features. No, in the 9 minute video we didn't cover everything the DX6e can do.

@ericwillis777 14 күн бұрын

@@modelflight Yes, I guess the title was misleading - I thought it was about how I, and people like me, can operate the transmitter, but instead it was about showing me how easily you could operate it, - not helpful for me - and, if it's that old, and no longer relevant, why not take it down ?. Do us all a favour, think about your audience not about yourself, unless, of course, that's what you want to show us.
