I finally got my radio today. The first thing I did was hook an MFU to it to see how it would work with the radio. The radio worked the MFU almost 100% the only thing I can't get it to do so far is shut off the MFU when you turn the radio off but you can use the function buy the stick movements to shut it down. If that is the only issue I have with it I am fine with that.

Congrats.... its a really good radio. So easy to use and setup. Wait till you set up the telemetry, you'll wonder how ever managed without it..

Can you switch between two models with this radio, without the need to get up from your seat?

Yes, very easy. Spektrum patented modelmatch http://www.spektrumrc.com/DSM/Techno...odelmatch.aspx

So once you bind your rx to a certain model memory it'll only ever work on that model memory.

In a word, drive the excavator on model 1, change the radio to model 2 and the excavator will just go into failsafe* mode ( stationary ) and then you can drive model 2 etc... its ace!

Any other questions, just ask away. I've set up 3 different radios for friend now.

*You will need to set up fail safe on each rx.

Congrats Travis!

Hopefully you'll bring it to the NJ meet.

Ok, it seems to be a very nice radio, just a little over my budget right now, thx for the info Elliot!

Hi Kalle, yes I have to admit, it's not the cheapest of radios, but with the functions and modelmatch, its perfect for the way we play. It'll be the last radio you buy.

And its expandable to 18 channels if you need.

So almost a while later what is the verdict on the 10t?

Looking for a radio with 12 channels...

Cheers,

For me, fantastic radio. So easy to swap between models. Easy to set up up, swap channels and mix.

If you need 12 channels its expandable up to 18 - although I haven't needed to do that yet.

It'll be the last radio I buy for a while.

I've got a nice 14 channel Futaba you can buy if you like

[apfubar]

Sounds good... Hmmm I want to find a DX10 t to hold....

Held the Dx18 today... Not bad, but the same challenge as the DSX9 for the track control...

I will have to give the Futaba a miss... Too many dsm2/x receivers...

Cheers,
AP

Just wondering if anyone has advice on what case to use and what shoulder harness?

Given I have a 10T(along with a DX8) I am now trying to sort it all out.

Cheers,

Case? Do you mean carry case? If so, I use the original one from Spektrum. Nice alloy box with space for some tools etc.

Harness wise, I use one from Graupner, same price as the Spektrum, but looked more comfortable.

[apfubar]

Elliot,

Thanks for that... yep it is the carry case... I am just trying to source a strap/harness for a "reasonable" amount. I will be in the USA at the end of the month, I might try there for both.

Cheers,

I was initially looking for an easy way to program my DX10T for use with the Tamiya MFU, and came across this thread.

.....long story short....I ended up programming my transmitter this way.....

(Please note that switch selection for a specific function is entirely up to the user.)

Albert that is awesome! Very nice work. Was it hard setting it up that way?
