SMART TECHNOLOGY

The Spektrum™ NX8 comes ready to provide the advantages of state-of-the-art connectivity right out of the box by supporting the innovative, all-in-one telemetry of Spektrum™ Smart batteries, ESCs and receivers. Smart Technology ensures that all of your model's electronics work together seamlessly for the greatest efficiency and performance. It keeps you aware of every component's status, boosts your confidence in its capabilities, and makes your entire system more responsive and simple to use.

LARGE 3.2" COLOR DISPLAY

Navigating menus and viewing telemetry data is made easy by the NX8 transmitter's large, 3.2" backlit color display that delivers information in crisp, 320x240 resolution detail. The display screen also allows you to choose from multiple color palettes or create your own.

WI-FI AND USB CONNECTIVITY


When connected to Wi-Fi, the NX8 transmitter gets even smarter. You can complete product registration right from the transmitter and download firmware updates instantly. A micro USB port allows you to charge the internal Li-Ion battery with an ordinary USB-to-Micro USB cable. It can also be used to recognize accessory devices and provide a convenient link to your PC or laptop. Connect the NX8 transmitter to your computer and you can control most simulators, including the RealFlight® RC Flight Simulator.*

*Currently compatible only with RF8 and RF9.

VOICE ALERTS

Keep tabs on important information without ever taking your eyes off what you are flying. The NX8 programmable voice alert system can call out what flight mode you have chosen or report telemetry info on demand. If an alarm goes off, you won't have to look at the display to see what's happening. The NX8 can tell you. A headphone jack allows you to monitor voice alerts using earbuds so you don't bother other pilots.

EASY PROGRAMMING

The NX8 offers 10 programmable mixes, 2 sequencers, and up to 10 different flight modes. You can easily navigate program menus with the transmitter's roller-wheel scrolling interface with Clear, Back, and Function buttons. Function bar options include Telemetry Ticker Tape for following real-time telemetry data and "My List" to give you quick access to the menu items you select, organized however you wish. You'll have quick, uncluttered access to the features you use the most.

MODEL TEMPLATES

Model programming templates for BNF® aircraft that include desired switch assignments, rates, curves and other details are already saved into the NX8 transmitter. You can also simplify the process of creating set-ups for new models by selecting Template and starting from a generic model template of the appropriate model type.

WIRELESS TRAINER

The exclusive functionality of the Spektrum™ wireless trainer link gives NX8 users the ability to link up wirelessly with other Spektrum™ DSMX®/DSM2® transmitters when teaching someone to fly. It's hassle-free. Once bound to another transmitter or component, ModelMatch™ technology will allow the NX8 to re-link without going through the bind process all over again.

HIGH CAPACITY Li-ION TRANSMITTER BATTERY

The NX8 transmitter includes a long-lasting 3.7V 2000mAh 1S Lithium Ion battery and a USB cable for convenient USB charging.

DSMX® TECHNOLOGY

The NX8 transmitter is built around proven Spektrum™ DSMX® 2.4GHz frequency-agile technology — the most advanced spread spectrum RC technology to date. By adding the agility of unique frequency shifts to the superior interference resistance of a wideband signal, and by limiting those shifts to a smaller portion of the 2.4GHz band, DSMX® transmitters provide on-channel interference protection that's second to none.

Great Transmitter

Super prompt service. Transmitter is daunting, very nice, very capable. Just trying to get it set up. Season for flying is just about us here in Wyoming.

Great Transmitter, but I wish I would have spent a few more dollars and got the NX10.

WORKS HOWEVER

Coming from a JR 12X DSMX it is like coming from the stone age into the future. I'm still using Windows 7 so I had a hell of a time just registering the transmitter. Now I have to figure out how to do the firmware updates. Technology is one thing but figuring out how to use it is another.

Great Transmitter

I upgraded from the 1st get DX7 and its worlds better. I would highly recommend if your looking at the NX6 and get spend the extra cash I'd go for this one it will last for a while. I my self am still learning.

NX8

Updated from my original DX6e - super easy transition as many functions work the same. Love my new transmitter!!!!

First order from Heli Direct - well satisfied.

Works great

This is the only transmitter that I have. I purchased the NX8 because I saw how difficult it could be to setup helicopters. I thought this would be the best option because I could buy bind and fly planes and helicopters.

Fast forward some and now I have a considerable amount more knowledge than I did before and I’m just not sure if I would buy this again. Don’t get me wrong, the transmitter works great. However, for the price and how most more Spektrum receivers cost I don’t know that it’s the best option.

A+ Radio does everything you would want

I picked this up with my 550X dominator Super combo and I couldn’t be more pleased. Menus are easy to navigate, setting up switches is a breeze. Love the voice call outs for each function that you set on your switches. Great Radio for the money for an Average hobbyist that loves to fly and doesn’t need something super expensive. Perfect!
