Not buying any more Spektrum products.
I heard from a friend that Spektrum Transmitters and Receivers are great. Unfortunately, the one I got was terrible. I had huge issues with the SR6100AT Receiver. It wouldn't connect or it would connect and then not be connected the next day. Or only throttle would work and no steering. Yes, I checked everything for shorts and it was the receiver which has a problem. It also has a built-in vehicle stability control system which is awful if you want to drift. Fortunately, it can be disabled, which is good.
I contacted Spektrum to get a warranty repair on the malfunctioning SR6100AT Receiver and they want a very high amount of money for return shipping. This is really frustrating and pretty clear that they don't stand behind their product. I'm fine with paying for shipping to get the tiny receiver to them but they want $24.00 USD for return shipping - that's ridiculous.
I won't be buying anymore Spektrum products.
What a multi function radio. With multiple models to control and different functions to enable and tune, this is truly a control for above a novice hobbyist. Some of the functions are difficult to navigate but with patience, the manual, and YouTube, you can eventually figure it out. DSMR is allows for guaranteed connection and fast frame rate.
Easy to use and to bind to multiple receivers. Having most of my RC's on one transmitter is a plus compared to multiple transmitters
Wish I have know better. Paper manual is riddled with errors. For example, the diagram showing where to plug in servos is wrong, on line version is correct. Number of available spaces for model name is wrong on paper and on line. You might as well buy the jumper cable from the very start, as the receiver and transmitter are way behind on the updates. Spektrum Quick Hit Tech Tips show capabilities that can not be had, no matter what you do. Just because the model number matches the video, does not mean that the capability is there. Directions for updates contain broken links, or links to updates that are not current. After wasting many hours setting up this radio, I have a piece of advice to those that will follow; don't waste your time, at the first sign of trouble call tech support. That's the only part that works well. Paper manuals and videos from Spectrum are a mess. Between the errors and outdated information, you can spend days chasing you tail, just to find out that the features you are looking for have been eliminated and names have not been changed. Once set up, the radio works OK.
Absolutely love it, the menu can be a bit overwhelming coming from a rtr controller, but beyond fantastic product.
i would be very happy if it had bolth worked, the receiver got random inputs and would only turn one way and not have break. the radio is great.
Excellent quality for the money and easy to program and use. Big step up from RTR radios without breaking the bank.
The AVC feature on is something that I'm not really interested in, but it's neat to have if I ever decide to play with it.
Always intrigued by the SMART telemetry system of Spektrum. Also wanted a remote to connect to a few Spektrum receiver equipped cars. Decided to give the Dxc5 a try.l, so far the remote works flawlessly. The ability to finely tune/control AVC is what I love most. Screen is easy to see, buttons feels nice, very simple to use.
Great customization with this controller! The precise feel when controlling my vehicles is outstanding!
This thing is amazing! Lots of channels, easy to use and understand. Can have multiple profiles for different rigs from crawlers, 4 wheel, steer, race, to drift and beyond. Lots of customization to dial in your rig. Definitely recommend.
Great Radio! it is a little bit confusing at first because the book that came with mine was not for the one with the SR6100AT Receiver. but I would recommend this radio to anyone just getting into the hobby! The book leaves a little more to be desired, the screen could use some sort of backlighting, and the rubber padding on the wheel needs to be secured somehow, as mine starts to slide around after about 5 mins of use.
So far loving everything about this transmitter. The instruction booklet is your friend. Easy to get the hang of. Feels nice in your hand.
Great radio with more features than I will probably use at great price compared to others
So far I like the features of the transmitter but the rolling feature button is way to sensitive and hard to get to the right feature, pain in the ass
Its amazing works great with all my excesseries I would recommend it to anyone
So far I think it’s pretty cool but I need to more thing so I can test it ont
Awesome and well priced. Love the features quick and responsive
Great RTR upgrade! I have my Lasernut, Infraction and Typhon on the DX5C. Adding AVC was cool on the Typhon. Controling AVC is much more granular than on the DX3. The quality feel of the transmitter make it hard to go back to the RTR transmitters. Great purchase. Not to difficult to setup either BTW.
