Horizon Hobby Behind The Innovation: The Spektrum iX20 Transmitter
Dating back to 2017, the Spektrum team began development on a ground-up development with the aim at creating an entirely new breed of transmitter. This project was designed to connect the end-user with their model as no other radio had in the past. An innovation of this level would mark a turning point in our industry and set the precedent moving forward. On October 31st, 2019, the Spektrum iX20 was announced to the world.
Now, get a "Behind the Innovation" look at what goes into developing the most sophisticated aircraft transmitter ever created. Meet a few members of the expert team as they discuss the history, challenges, and technology behind creating the next-generation innovation, the Spektrum iX20.

    Yeah yeah yeah yeah!! We all know you guys rock...there a reason even since day 1 when I didn't know anything and I mean anything about RC'S there's a reason why I buy only spektrum radios. I knew since day 1 spektrum was where it's at. Futaba radios are nice lookn I'm sure their software works really well and I almost took a dive but I stick with what I know I stand behind my product no matter what and spektrum is what I chose and will continue to buy....like a barber you always stick with from the time you were a kid.

    4:35 Wow... nice soldering station! With Crossfire support the iX20 is the new King Kong of RC radios. Nothing better for FPV with Crossfire support IMO as to be able to get a voice readout of which switch your finger is on while wearing goggles is just amazing... and might be even better for LOS as when your aircraft is just a spec in the distance the last thing you want to do is look away. And to add my 2 cents a blind person that reads braille will tell you each switch should also "feel" different so a simplified braille system would compliment the switch system IMO in case there's too much noise to hear your radio.

    Well looks like my next Radio. Will be a nice update/upgrade to my now aging trusted DX8. The only thing I would have liked to have seen would be ability to feed an FPV view in the screen. Either a AV/HDMi input. Or better still the ability to add a modular VRX video receiver, with SD card for recording.

    👍 none of that. Just another overpriced peace of equipment. I gave up after 10+ years being spektrum fan. I switched to Frsky and added crossfire... I've never even looked back. Ultimate setup with unbelievable range and most of all: Reliable!

    Great radio but... is it affordable? I have a DX 6 & 9. These have never failed me for my type of scale flying with mostly E-Flite prop & jets. I have a feeling that this is a ‘Ferrari’ vs a ‘Toyota’ and suited to $$ pro flyers.

    Nothing is brown out proof... nothing. Its all about setup... i pride my self and seting up planes accordingly and I never had a brown out on a single plane. Had a dx6i, dx8, dx9, dx9 black, dx20 and now a ix20 is on the way. Never ever had a Brown out from small 200$ planes, all the way up to 120cc planes
