  • Hey guys, welcome back to the channel! Its been a while since I've posted since I've gotten into BBQ and have been building my ‪@Smokingmeatsbbq‬ channel!
    Anyway, if you have further questions on the NX20 or anything Spektrum related, I'll do my best to answer in the comments if I know or I will get the answer for you.

    Hey you forgot to mention the cool feature when you turn it on and don’t get sound so you have to restart it. Wow what a great feature for a 1300 dollar radio. I’m sure glad your QC caught that bug before shipping.

    Just to give a sense of perspective to how absurd it costs: you can buy 300 radiomaster pockets with 1 of these.

    • @jesusherrera2749
      @jesusherrera2749 Před 6 měsíci

      Yeah umm no. Pocket is like 50 dollars. 50x300 = 15,000

      Better comparison is the TANDEM X18 which is $275 and can do so much more plus its dual band.

    I dumped my ix20 for I did not enjoy the android/google stuff, now I sold my NX10 and DX20 in order to purchase this NX20 to update. The NX10 is really nice cost effective radio if are a Spektrum fan which I am, even though I at times express my free speech rights to make some criticisms here and there. What I will miss is the buttery smooth gimbals the DX20 has, in hope Spektrum will some day make these types available as standard on NX20 and or other higher channel platforms from the start. You could always offer a lesser gimbal version later as a secondary release to offer to those budget minded. I do know I will down the road kick myself for not waiting for the NX20SE, shame on Spektrum for not doing the right thing first. Oh and now in hope since I sold my transmitters my new order will not be stuck in back-order beyond mid May! Thanks for your review

    Wish I would've known that an NX20 was in the works when I updated my radio to the NX10 last year. The iX20's Android OS was a bit of a turnoff to me since I'm in the 🍏ecosystem but the NX20 is really appealing. I might have to put one of these in the rotation this year.

    Hi i am upgrading as well i wonder if you could answer a question about spektrum radio i had a DX6 which i wanted to change to a recharge battery "correct type" after i took the batts out the radio went down "useless" after i installed the recharge battery any ideas, i currently have a NX 8 i have other radios "Flysky-Futaba etc none of these are a problem .

    I never Would of thought I would use 14 channels when I started flying … I have reached 14 channels .. 😳😳 when you buy a transmitter buy as many channels as you can … I went through 3 transmitters .. Dx6e , dx8e , nx10 and now I am on ix14

    You didn't mention the quality of the rear sliders. When I looked at an NX20 in the LMS I was not impressed with how sticky and ratchety those sliders were.

    are the ix14 gimbals less of a stretch than the nx8? Nx8 is fine but I would prefer less stretch to the gimbals and better ergonomics. Worth upgrading just for that? Thanks.

    • @StevesRC
      @StevesRC  Před 2 měsíci +1

      As in, distance from each other? I would say the 14 are similar in distance to the 8

    • @mikefuchs2814
      @mikefuchs2814 Před 2 měsíci

      Thanks for the reply. I mean stretch to reach the inside corners. It looks like ix14 gimbals are closer to the edge of the radio, which would be an improvement.

      They really should do. There's a big gap in the NX range between the 10 and the 20.

    Soooo much Money for an old fashion Software OS... Spektrum even forget their old Products to be compatible... after nearly 10 Years I changed from Spektrum to Graupner to OpenTX with multi Protocol Unit: RadioMaster. So I can still Use my Spektrum and Graupner Receivers with one TX! And now, for the big Toys: I added a FrSky Tandem XE TX with 2 HF Modules (2,4GHz and 900MHz) to be redundent. And all of thes TX's are deep under the Price of that Spektrum TX in that Video... poor
