Default RadioLink RC8X

Looks like a Futaba 7PX clone ha a dual purpose Screen can be used for FPV, Touch screen,

I preordered one to see what its all about. Anyone have one yet? any testers?

Looks nice with FPV functions but I wonder if it has a fast response system like SR or SSR, I can not see anything mentioned. If that is the case than it is no option for the serious racer.

I'm very intrested to hear your thoughts on this very cool looking radio! I haven't seen latency information and it would be nice if the radio can match the Noble Pro in servo programming! I could have sworn someone mentioned the Pro can't do SSR mode but......

I will find out and let you know. but most serious racers dont look much past Futaa or Sanwa anyway. but for the club racer it would still be a viable option as most slow it down anyway.

No, they're Theta servos. I've got a couple in my nitro buggy and they're working well with my NB4.

Where is a good place to buy one at I have found a few on Ali express. I have never bought anything from them before just wondering if they are trustworthy.

Hi, new to these forums. Anyone have an RC8X yet? Thinking about getting this or the Noble NB4.

Just ordered one along with a few extra receivers. I guess I’m going to find out what this radio is going to be like. It’s probably going to be a lot more than I know what to do with.

Ha! Just ordered one myself! Guess we'll both see how this new RC8X is. I do like all of the functions and range for it and the cheap receivers is a bonus! Finally saw an english unboxing video on YT yesterday so I decided to pull the plug.

Coming back to my subject of the frame rate. Did read the manual and nothing is mentioned about the frame rate. Not even something mentioned about analog and digital servos.

That can be one thing, it uses the old fashion frame rate of 50 Hz. (I think)
