Specifications
SMART TECHNOLOGY
The Spektrum™ NX8 comes ready to provide the advantages of state-of-the-art connectivity right out of the box by supporting the innovative, all-in-one telemetry of Spektrum™ Smart batteries, ESCs and receivers. Smart Technology ensures that all of your model's electronics work together seamlessly for the greatest efficiency and performance. It keeps you aware of every component's status, boosts your confidence in its capabilities, and makes your entire system more responsive and simple to use.
WI-FI AND USB CONNECTIVITY
When connected to Wi-Fi, the NX8 transmitter gets even smarter. You can complete product registration right from the transmitter and download firmware updates instantly. A micro USB port allows you to charge the internal Li-Ion battery with an ordinary USB-to-Micro USB cable. It can also be used to recognize accessory devices and provide a convenient link to your PC or laptop. Connect the NX8 transmitter to your computer and you can control most simulators, including the RealFlight® RC Flight Simulator.*
*Currently compatible only with RF8 and RF9.
VOICE ALERTS
With voice alerts, the NX8 lets you keep tabs on important functions without ever taking your eyes away from your aircraft. They can be programmed to call out what flight mode you've chosen or to report telemetry information on demand. If an alarm goes off, you won't have to look at the transmitter display to see what's happening - the NX8 will tell you. A headphone jack allows you to monitor voice alerts using earbuds so you don't bother other pilots.
EASY PROGRAMMING
The NX8 offers 10 flight modes for aeroplanes, 10 for sailplanes, 5 for multi rotor aircraft, and 4 for helicopters. Six programmable mixes are available. Channel 7 can be used as a two or three position channel for SAFE select or flight mode selection for our BNF aircraft, freeing up the primary 6 channels to use for control surfaces. Navigating program menus is made easy by the transmitter's large, 3.2" colour display and a roller-wheel scrolling interface with Clear, Back, and Function buttons. Function bar options include Telemetry Ticker Tape for following real-time telemetry data and "My List" to give you quick access to the menu items you select, organized however you wish. You'll have quick, uncluttered access to the features you use the most!
ERGONOMIC DESIGN
The NX8 transmitter's weight distribution and switch placement (three 2-position, five 3-position) have been optimized for your comfort and precise, fatigue-free control. Rubber grips make it easy to hold the radio securely. Its antenna folds conveniently to the front for compact storage and transport. It also helps to prevent accident powering on by partially blocking the power button.
WIRELESS TRAINER LINK
The wireless trainer link allows instructor pilots to wirelessly "buddy box" the NX8 with another DSM2®/DSMX® transmitter. Once bound to another transmitter, ModelMatch™ technology enables the NX8 to re-link without going through the bind process again.
HIGH CAPACITY Li-ION TRANSMITTER BATTERY
The NX8 transmitter includes a long-lasting 3.7V 2000mAh 1S Lithium Ion battery and a USB cable for convenient USB charging.
DSMX® TECHNOLOGY
The NX8 transmitter is built around proven Spektrum™ DSMX® 2.4GHz frequency-agile technology - the most advanced spread spectrum RC technology to date. By adding the agility of unique frequency shifts to the superior interference resistance of a wideband signal, and by limiting those shifts to a smaller portion of the 2.4GHz band, DSMX transmitters provide on-channel interference protection that's second to none.
