Listed is a Spektrum DX8 Transmitter in excellent working and cosmetic condition. Includes charger, SD card, factory 2000mah NiMH battery and a new 4000mah Lipo battery from RadicalRC. No RX or telemetry module. No factory packaging or case. You will get the exact items photo's over manuals and my catalog in my 7 photo's above.This radio comes from an estate. Instructions, TX, charger, memory card are included. No other electronics or packaging included. The man had one model with a few scratches on it. The rest were all on the workbench being put together and perfectly new. I doubt this TX has made more than a few trips to a flying field. It is excellent and would pass for new very easily. However, it is used. Switches are perfect, has a Carbon Cub programmed into it that was never finished. You will be very happy with the condition of this TX and your friends will have no idea it's "technically" used.Shipping is free within the USA. I'm tossing in a NEW RadicalRC 4000mah Lipo battery because it's very popular and many people like them. Will run the DX8 more than 2x as long as the factory NiMH 2000mah pack.Packaging on this item will be excellent. They'll have to run over it with a forklift to damage it after we get done. ;-) We are very careful to protect the switches and gimbals.Everything below is the distributors general description of a DX8 Radio System and it's features.

Fly Smarter with Vital Model Feedback.The DX8's built-in telemetry feature gives you vital, real-time information about what's happening with your model in flight; information that can prevent crashes and maximize performance. The telemetry data appears in an easy-to-read format on the large backlit LCD screen so you can reference it at a glance. You can also have the DX8 alert you with an audio or vibe alarm whenever any telemetry values exceed limits you define. The DX8 will initially be able to track four key safety and performance factors:Battery VoltageNever again will you have to wonder whether or not you have enough voltage to keep flying. Being able to monitor voltage will also help you detect a worn out battery pack before it prematurely ends your flight. The telemetry module is plugged into the receiver and will automatically relay receiver voltage. A separate sensor for tracking main battery voltage in electric aircraft will be included.TemperatureIs there enough airflow reaching an electric motor? Is my battery getting too hot? With the DX8, you will get real-time answers and be able to take action well before damage occurs. One temperature sensor is included.Signal QualityThe telemetry module will keep tabs on the quality of the signal coming to the receiver and send this information back to the DX8 where it is represented on the LCD screen using a familiar "signal bar" scale.RPMPilots can use the RPM telemetry data to check the effectiveness of new mixture settings, new battery packs, or perhaps a new propeller/motor combination. The RPM sensor is sold separately.*full-range telemetry module included with DX8 systemBeyond new software and telemetry, the DX8 is also the first Spektrum radio to introduce the Spektrum Data Interface™. The SDI is designed for use with standard SD memory cards and adds a whole new level of flexibility and ease-of-use. With the SDI, you will be able to:Share Model SetupsShare setups with other DX8 owners at the field or transfer them from your SD card to your PC and attach them to an e-mail. This makes it easy to gain from the experience of others or help others succeed.Save More Models to MemoryThe DX8 has enough on-board memory for up to 30 models before you even need to think about using the SDI. But with the SDI, memory for thousands of models could be stored on the SD card or transferred to a PC hard drive for backup.Stay Up to DateWith the Spektrum Data Interface, you won't have to send your DX8 into a service center to get the latest Spektrum AirWare enhancements. You can download them onto your SD card and upload them to the DX8 yourself.Superior Ergonomics.
