This is a quick video blog about a new product that HobbyKing just released. It’s DSM2 compatible transmitter. It’s called an OrangeRX T-SIX. This is just an initial comparison of some of the features differences I've noticed so far.
Please be sure to leave comments about your thoughts on this new radio. What are some of the differences you’ve noticed between these radios? Would you buy one over a DX6i?

Yes, I would buy the cheaper version over the DX6i. But, I'm a cheap bastard. Why would I pay more for the same capability? Um, I don't know, either.
Sure, you can argue customer support. So, are you telling me that you are paying more for a TX that you are planning on having a failure? Then, you will get a new TX that is equally likely to have a failure.
Who's replacing your planes when these fail? Silliness. In the end, I think I'll stick with my Turnigy 9x.

I will check them both out, I can't see a reason to pay more for a radio that can do many of the same things. great price by Hobby King

I didn't want to drop the $$$ on a DX6i and all the mods and flashing with Turnigy and others made me a little nervous. IMHO the ORX T-SIX is a great "Starter" transmitter.

On my dx6i i broke my wheel and called horizon and ask them if they could send me a new one and they told me there was to many types of that wheels for my dx6i and I was to send my radio in and they would fix it. Well I did not want to spend 16.00 dollars shipping and have my radio gone for a few weeks during the fly season so I went on ebay and found medal replace wheels for like 8.00 and took only 4 days to get it.
