After many years of using Futaba, I just picked up the NX8 today as my my 1st ever Spektrum. Your video was very helpful - thanks.

Thankyouthankyouthankyou! I spent probably 30mins on trying to figure out how to reverse my elevator with my NX8 that I just got. This saved me big time! Thank you!

Been using old school Futaba Radio's my whole life for Nitro Flying. Getting back into R/C now that battery tech has come along and wow these new radios are awesome. I was hesitant on getting one of these until I found this video! EXTREMELY HELPFUL! THANK YOU! I'm going to order one!

Thank you for showing how to use my NX8 . Setup.

I recently got an NX8, which is my first programmable TX, and found myself frustrated selecting the sounds because of such a long list. Now I can set up my own category, having learned from this video, and save the frustration going forward. Thanks.

Great vid, it definitely is frustrating when there are so many features, buttons, knobs, switches and outlets for internet hook up and such. I’ve had a couple tx’s with so many features so just want say thank you for the vid. It will help out a lot. I’ve watched a few vids but some people just go through the features to fast and don’t explain things clearly. You did a awesome job showing and explaining and simplify what to do. Thank you

[driverman]

Thanks learned lots. And will keep watching.

New to the hobby and just received my NX 8. Fantastic video!! Helps a lot. Thank you

[martinj]

I have just set up my plane watching your tutorial, loving the Nx8 now (the second working one). thank you for your channel ( instruction manual may as well be in Mandarin ) best wishes

HUGE help with this video. I'm very new to the hobby and my new model (Eflite T28 1.1) is not listed on my NX8 so I have to program it manually. I was completely lost when asking for help from others. This video broke it down so that even a tech challenged person like me can understand.

Great video, I switched to Futaba, but now switching to NX8. Thanks for sharing its made up my mind. Mike.

[albertburton]

Well done demo! Now I can set my sound switches and add my most used audio to a category of my choosing🤗

[philallen]

Great tutorials, I ma just getting into this, have bought a new NX8, seems like a I made a good choice but a lot to learn, Thanks

[SmokeysOutpost]

I’m new to the hobby, this was VERY informative. Thanks.

You know my DX6e....couple of weeks back it was on ....I was in the mancave farting around and it lost power and the screen went black. This DX6e uses four AA batteries. The batteries still showed...25 percent charge....if I recall...definitely showed some juice left.

It uses batteries...good ones too. I also need to be careful when flying and not run out of juice in my

Nx8 needs to be my next serious purchase in this great hobby. Keep on Flying in the Free World

This is a great video! So detailed and my NX 8 is coming today, so can't wait to sit with this video and set-up at least one of my planes with this radio today to take to the field tomorrow! THanks for your attention to detail, but yet keeping it simple so a person can get started without the clutter of every single feature!

Great video, just received NX8 last week and came across your video. A lot more complex than my DXs that came with the Aeroscout. Looking forward to better weather and get flying.

When I first bought my Spektrum NX8 my friend setup my settings for my A-10 and he went so fast, all the settings were perfect but I was lost I have played with the NX8 and sort of got it but thank you for the video now I understand, Again Thanks

[DronemanJoeRc]

just got mine and have been setting up and importing my planes from my dx6 and it is looking great. gave you a sub and like bud!!

Maybe I'm prejudiced because you belong to FlyRC, but you did a nice presentation on the NX8 Setup (I have an NX10), I learned some things I didn't know. You're style of presenting was clear and just plain easy to watch. Suggestions for additional content? I've been dabbling with the newish Eachine mini warbird series lately and struggling with the setup for the Eachine TX16S open tx transmitter, seems my little T28 needs to be rebound for every flight. Others on the internet have experienced the same problem but at least on other reviewer used a Radiomaster TX16S and he didn't need to rebind with each flight. Not to pull you away from the Spektrum ecosystem, but it seems to me that at least for smaller, cheaper, RTF park fliers Eachine has come out with some other very interesting planes in the last year, including a 50mm F16 a few months ago, and an F18 just last week that Brian Phillips reviewed. These last two were PNP but the mini warbirds were all Eachine protocol and the standard transmitter they come with has a huge dead spot in the middle of the aileron/elevator stick which necessitates (?) use of the hobby grade Open TX transmitters which seem to fix that particular problem.
