I just finished reading the entire thread. I've must say I'm impressed a lot of the major issues have been dealt with since the DX6Rs release. I'm seriously excited for it to show up on Wednesday at the LHS. I was particularly excited to see one of the updates included DSM2 compatibility as this saves me a ton of up front cost in receivers.
The few days wait is gonna kill me.... Lol!

So many fun little things that can be done with the radio. Knockoffracer - glad you took the time to see that all the early issues have been put in the past. It amazes me how many don't like/want to realize it. The case is the same... but its a different machine today than it was at release.

So far I love it. The Tekin Hotwire 3 works well with it, unlike on my Pixel3, so no need to bring my laptop to the track next time. The amount of of adjustment, and how easy it is with the touch screen is unreal to me, I never thought this kind of stuff would happen with an RC transmitter. This Saturday night will be my first outing with the DX6R, so I'm excited.
The only disappointment was my own fault. Originally I had 20 Spektrum Receivers. 2 SR310, 2 SR201, 1 SR410, and 15 SR301. I didn't realize the 201, and 301 units where not compatible. I had just assumed they would work. Oh well, they are huge anyway. Plus I like the bind button on the SR215 so much more than the easy to lose bind plug.

Saturday night was the first outing with the DX6. Man what a transmitter. Not one hiccup. It's very impressive. I did notice my cars seem a whole lot more.... Hyper with the 6R compared to my previous 4C. Is this normal? The only settings I changed where trim, and endpoint settings. Those are things I had set on the 4C and the cars just didn't react like they do with the 6R. It's kind of weird to me, not a bad thing, just need to adjust to it.

nikos2002 should be able to shed some light on this further.

On the bind menu where it says protocol there is a way to change that from DSM2 to DSM.

I tried tapping the Protocol indicator thinking it was what I needed to do to enable DSM, unfortunately this did nothing. I'm fine with upgrading to current spec receivers to be honest. The SR301 is rather large for things like my F104, and RB6. The minute size of the SR215/315 enables me to clean up the way the chassis looks. Plus I can help out some friends who still use DX4S/R/C transmitters to get more of their RCs usable.

Two weekends in, and I've come across one issue.
My buddies keep taking the radio. If I put it down on the table, one of them picks it up immediately... Lol. GO GET YOUR OWN DAMMIT! 😁

Hi, just curious - is the resolution of the screen decent enough to say, consult pdf setup sheets on it? I mean, being an Android device, I assume you can store some data on an SD card (such as the aforementioned setup sheets) can’t you?

This radio has been out a while now. Any rumors or speculation as to whether it might be superceded anytime soon?
