RC pilots at the top of their game need a transmitter that can keep up. The DX18
does that and more with extensive programming for aircraft, helis and gliders
as well as providing real-time telemetry and the option to increase channels with
X-Plus channel expansion.
X-Plus :
The Spektrum DX18 is capable of transmitting on 18 channels proportionally and
will competently fulfill the demanding requirements even of the most challenging
aircraft. Supplied with an AR9020 X-Plus capable nine channel receiver,
expansion is easily achieved with the addition of and X-Plus expansion module
(SPMXP8000). Just plug the module into the AR9020 and bind it. The DX18 will
automatically detect the extra channels and give the menu options needed to assign
the extra functions. It’s just what anyone who flies complex scale models or
high-performance sailplanes needs.
Ergonomics :
Advanced Ergonomics are the key to a well-balanced radio; one that is comfortable in the pilot’s hands with easy to reach sticks and all of the switches
and knobs. The large backlit LCD display ensures setting up all of the multiple
channels and assigning all of the controls is easy on the eye and Spektrum’s
AirWare™ software has all of the programming functions a pilot could want. The
intuitive SimpleScroll™ interface makes navigating menus and changing settings
as simple as “roll and click”. It’s almost like using a mouse.
Airware™ Updates :
It’s easy to always be up to date with the latest version of Spektrum AirWare
thanks to the Spektrum Community and the Spektrum Data Interface (SDI).
Registering the DX18 at www.community.spektrumrc.com will see users receive
alerts whenever a new version of Spektrum AirWare is available. They can then
download the new version onto a standard SD card and upload it to the transmitter
via the SDI. The SDI can also be used to upload setups for specific models
from the Spektrum Community site, share model setups with other DX18 owners
or store extra model memory. An SD card is included advantage can be taken of
this handy feature right away.
Telemetry :
The DX18 is equipped with a built-in telemetry feature that delivers real-time information
on things like the model’s battery voltage, signal quality, engine or motor
temperature, airspeed, altitude and more. And it all appears right on the big LCD
screen so can be easily seen at a glance.
Special DX18 Features :
New with the Spektrum DX18 is Absolute Servo travel definition that limits the travel to a programmed limited value even if the total values of the mix would create a longer throw.
Ten flight modes are available in glider mode, which covers all required parameters. The innovative Flight mode matrix gives perfect assistance for fast and safe programming.
A programmable time shift in the integrated sequencer of the DX18 activates mix
functions. That enables two functions, for example Gear and Gear doors, to one
programmable function.
