Bugs have been worked out for quite a while. If you had an original 6R, the updated software is 1000 times better. Past issues are just that... in the past. Even have some new stuff on the horizon, can't wait to tell more. BTW - I think there was a 6R being used in 7 of the 8 A Mains at the recent ROAR Nationals. Don't remember if anyone in the SC 17.5 A Main was using 6R. Dakotah Phend used the 6R to win Modified Truck ROAR Title.

Steering monitoring
Even after recalibration my steering monitoring is it positive 18 does this mean I’m not getting equal throw from my steering inputs from full left to full right

Check your settings. Make sure sub trim is zero, Make sure your Travel left and right is at 100. Go to Calibration step. You have to move the wheel both directions, throttle forward and back and the knob to each side ending at center (the beep). Then save the settings. You have to save the settings after you do it.

Is the dx6r able to do telemetry on nitro engines "RPM" like the dx5r? How about lap times with the spektrum lap counter system?

Yes, you should be able to use the SPM9569 RPM sensor and bracket as long as it mounts on the engine. The telemetry functions are the same between the 5Pro/5R and 6R. The lap timer was done just for the DX5R and overall the lap timer project fizzled out before we event went to program it to the 6R. It may be a little down the road, but I have some other cool ideas for lap timing on the 6R. We are not done developing ideas and concepts for the 6R.

I am having difficulty getting my DX6R to bind with radios and still have a reverse option. I had to bind my radio to a SRS6000 receiver about 5 times before it would give me reverse. I am really wondering if I can change the reverse setting, once a model is programmed, without rebinding the model to the radio. I am a "basher" now as I have not driven for 5-years and have only flown planes and helis. I am used to the iX12 which can reconfigure models quite easily (on the ground) with a few simple steps. Guess my iX12 spoiled me! I do like how you can update this radio using WiFi.

I believe it is a programming glitch since I changed out the receiver for a SR310 and still had the same issues. After rebooting my transmitter twice, I was finally able to bind properly. Sure this will be fixed during the next update.
