Spektrum DX9

A couple cool things I found getting this set up with the DX5:

1. The instructor's dual rates still work, and can be changed without interrupting the student. The student's dual rates also work. The effect is cumulative.
2. If you put the trainer switch on an actual switch, you can activate the over-ride mode, which lets you flip the switch to student control (which the radio can announce for you), and moving either stick immediately switches the radio back to instructor control. You don't have to flip the switch to re-take control. Cycling the switch back and forth returns control to the student.

This is a neat system, and the setup is pretty easy.

These are some of the reasons I switched to the dx9, so I can teach my daughter to fly
