Spektrum impressing a Frsky/TBS User
Solid radio for a beginner and veteran to other RC hobbies. I love the way it feels in my hand and the wheel for steering is excellent. Kinda takes learning to one hand steer at high speed but would not recommend that anyways. The touch pad is a bit finnecky but with the right touch you eill get around in the menus fine. Not as big a deal as others make it out to be. The range is really impressive as well. I was not expecting to make it around the block like I do with my 900mhz rx stuff for drones but sure enough it can and even more! I liken this radio! Its outperforming my video range on 800mW 5.8 Ghz!!!! Overall happy. Thanks

Lots of functions but ok quality
What you see is what you get lots of function no back lighting on display. Most diss concerning was the rubber shock proofing on the outside edges, served its purpose, but will not last long other than that a good weekend warrior for about two years

It Works
It will take time to find all the settings and to set up. The manual is easy to understand and is well explained. If you do buy this remote I recommend that you buy extra batteries (rechargeable will also work). The remote does burn through batteries.

Great transmitter
Great for crawling! Use mine for my rock bouncer and it has withstood quite a bit of abuse and still looks brand new!

Scam
Do not buy, touch pad is not operable for working hands and very inconsisten feed back. My dx4s is 10x faster to navigate. Not a true 5 channel, you lose the batt bind port for 5th channel eliminating the bec port so only 4 channel... I call scam, fool me once. Never twice spektrum.

Feels and operates cheaply
Kinda disappointed with this one. It's light, plasticky and feels cheap. No nice heft to it at all. The touch controls are wonky. Even though I already knew this, it doesn't have a backlight, timer start/stop on throttle, no rechargeable battery pack, etc. In fact, it didn't even come with any disposable AA batteries. Even my cheap all plastic DX2e came with batteries, but this $200+ radio didn't? All in all, this much more expensive radio doesn't really feel any better in the hand, nor does it drive any better than the cheap RTR radio I already had. The missing features I mentioned are BASIC features on my Spektrum aircraft radios, which I do enjoy very much. I'm disappointed in this Spektrum ground radio.
