Default Dx5c

I have a Dx5c and my son dropped it and broke the little roller selector wheel to scroll through the menus, can parts be purchased for the radios? I also disassembled the radio to see what exactly broke. Noticed the little board that the wheel is on says dx6r.

Any chance it could be covered under warranty?

Ahh that's right, the DX5 is older by now. I've seen DX3s years ago. Maybe by now you'll find some DX5 parts.

Maybe. I emailed spektrum/horizon to see if it’s possible to purchase the part

I was able to repair a similar control from a different model of Spektrum transmitter. I drilled out the center of the wheel and slid in a bamboo skewer that I later cut to length and shaped to fit inside the rotary component on the circuit board. It was a fairly easy repair and I found it held up quite well.
Maybe something like that can get you up and running until the proper part shows up.

Spektrum (normally) has a really good repair program, you should be able to send it in and they repair it for not much money.
