The one thing I appreciate of the DX8 over the 9503 is the fact that it includes an SD-card option. I know you can sync the 9503 with your PC, but the versatility of removable/swappable storage is a big deal for something in this
price range.

But its more about the looks.. I've never like the dx6 style... I have a 7 and love it... the feel that is..

You peoples and the looks... When are you going to be looking at it while flying?

(And this is coming from a designer by trade. )

Ill be lookin through my video goggles haha.. but yea, I'm picky I guess

I really LIKE the DX-10! I want to get one.

If you pay them, retailers can be very nice...

He, he I'm actually going to try that.....I just want to make sure that my current receivers will work on a European radio - Although I don't see why they wouldn't, even if the Transmitter is transmitting at a lower wattage..

Can't understand a word of it, but it does show some of the features. One thing I did get out of it is that the switch banks are modular and that you can have different modules that you can swap out with different type of aircraft - neat.

o Foldable aerial
o Designed specifically as a tray radio
o Sticks are designed to optimize grip in a tray configuration
o Angle of switch modules adjustable
o Interchangeable modules to adapt the radio to specific applications
o Large backlit display
o Pockets left and right to store DS cards and small tools
o Fully integrated arm system for the radio harness
o Audio and vibration alarm
o Real time telemetry
o SD card interface for unlimited model memory and transfer of data
o Mode 1 to Mode 4
o Four languages; English, German, French and Spanish
o Integrated stick switches
o Software for three model types: acrobat, glider and heli
o Internal model memories
o Stop watches
o Timer
o 2048 step resolution
o Integrated LiPo
o Switch allocation
o Mixers with graphic curve

Another view of the 8..



•real-time telemetry provides onboard receiver battery
voltage (or flight pack) and RF (flight log) information
• antenna fades
• frame losses Flight Log
• hold (failsafe)
• SD/MMC card capability allows data transfer and
software upgrades
• 30 model memory
• larger LCD screen
• electronic E-ring
• includes 8-channel receiver with telemetry capabilities
• throttle activated timer setting
• language selectable
• telemetry warning (audio & vibration)
• integrate RF / data during range check
• mode selectable (mode 1-4)

Great pics Steve - wish we could see the side back of the 8......still waiting to see those sliders.

Based on the Horizon photos, it is going to be another 4 AA battery radio.

This is a bad thing?

Not in my mind. Works great in my DX6i. Looking forward to it, and unlimited model memory, telemetry, and throttle controlled timer.
