Cutting edge technology, AR9030T Receiver, touch screen, WI-FI & Bluetooth!

The Spektrum iX12 is an intelligent 12-channel radio system matched with a powerful combination of features and next-level connectivity. Groundbreaking yet comfortably familiar, RC pilots of all aircraft types can use the iX12 to out fly everything in its class.   

TOUCHSCREEN WITH ANDROID-POWERED INTERFACE
"Tap" into the iX12's programming - litterally! Its 4-inch, full-color, easy-to-read monitor delivers crisp, clear detail that includes state-of-the-art touchscreen technology so that navigation is simple. And, because the interface is a fully functional Android system with a dedicated quad-core processor, it will work with an evolving list of apps from the Google Play store.

WI-FI CONNECTIVITY
When connected to Wi-Fi, the iX12 gets even smarter. Spektrum AirWare™ Touch app update-alerts are automatic, plus you can download model setups and add third-party apps. Listen to music on Spotify or Pandora directly from your radio or even update your Facebook status just before you fly.

BLUETOOTH CONNECTIVITY
The iX12 can connect with just about any Bluetooth device. Use wireless earbuds to hear voice alerts privately, or pair a set of speakers and listen to music. A wide range of other device uses are possible including file sharing, photo sharing and more.

Spektrum RC iX12 2.4GHz DSMX 12-Channel Radio System (No Servos)
Absutely awsome. Hands down the best transmitter out there. It is different than what you have used before but in a good way. It does everything and more than advertised. If you can use a smartphone than you can use this.
Importing models from any g2 radio is simple and easy.

It is a little confusing at first but once you connect to wifi and update the airware you are good to go. I like that you can set your model then switch screens and go to android and use your apps. The model stays active and now you are surfing the web playing music and so much more. When you turn off the unit and turn it back on it's automatically on your last Model even though the Android screen is showing your transmitter is now active. I also like the standby mode you can place your transmitter in standby instead of turning it off and having to reboot. The reboot process does take about 2 minutes for Android however your air where is running in the background and still comes on immediately.

I have only scratched the surface of what this thing can do. The other nice feature is that the programming is the same as all the other Spektrum platforms. The only difference is it's a touch screen. So no real learning a whole new system. Also when you activate a monitor you can tell it how many channels to monitor instead of having all 12 active and you're only running a 6 channel receiver or such. And for those of us that have way too many toys you can sort your models by type when looking them up in the screen instead of having to scroll through 50 or 60 models. You can tell a lot of thought went into designing this platform. And the best thing of all is that it is upgradeable so as new versions of firmware come out it is easily downloaded through Wi-Fi. No more cables and SD cards and copying and pasting. Simple upgrade and simple Android platform.

Also horizon suppprt has a whole series of instructional videos to support the use on youtube.

Just sum it up if you're looking for a great radio and are a tech savvy person this is a radio for you. I could go on and on but so far I have nothing bad to say about this radio.

Spektrum RC iX12 2.4GHz DSMX 12-Channel Radio System (No Servos)
I was really on the fence about this radio. I read a lot of reviews prior to buying it and there were a lot of negatives. The fact that it was running Android also made me Nervous. After using the radio for a few weeks now Im impressed. Just about every negative I’ve read about this radio is simply just not true as far as I can see. If anything battery life could be a little better but honestly that’s not even an issue as long as you properly put the radio to sleep in between use. I was also surprised at how responsive navigating through various screens were as that was one of the negatives I heard about. Bottom line great radio and with android this will go along way before another upgrade is needed.
