Default Spektrum question?

Will the DX6 radio work w/ the SR3000 receivers as well as the AR6000 receivers?

Thanks!

Yes.
Obviously you only get 3 channels of function though.

Thanks, though as much, but it's better to be safe than sorry!

Took me forever to find something "official" that said you could.

I don't know why we care... since we were informed by that guy "who called spektrum directly" that it can't be used on land since it's 72mhz, I mean 2.6ghz and air only!

Thanks!

From what I've tried....No.

The DX6 uses dual-link...the SR3000s work with a single link. Different protocol.

I have tried it and it doesn't work.

The DX6 works with the AR6000 and BR6000.

The DX7 works with the AR7000, AR6100, AR6000, BR6000, and CX2 RX (which is an AR6100).

So even though they are both 2.4 they are not compatible?

I'm glad I didn't buy anything yet.

Hmmmm, more research!

Which airplane guy?

I have about 11 planes so I guess I could be considered an airplane guy.

I have a DX3, DX6, and DX7 so the info I give is from first-hand experience.

I already made a video showing how to control it. It is around here somewhere. It is pretty easy to figure out how to set it up too.
