Description

Your vehicles are extremely durable, why not your transmitter? The Spektrum DX5 Rugged 5-channel surface transmitter redefines radio control with a level of durability to match the tough conditions off-roaders, bashers and boaters encounter constantly. We started with a chassis based on the superb Spektrum ergonomic design found on the popular DX5C and competition favorite DX5 Pro. From there, we integrated cordless power tool feature ideas for the die-hard punishment those products endure. The result is a class-leading RC system with unmatched durability in addition to other innovative features that unite with a level of precision, versatility and convenience you won't want to play without. Molded Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) bumpers surround the radio chassis to protect it against drops, bumps and even a few bangs here and there. There's no external antenna to snag or worry about—a low-profile ridge on the chassis protects the robust high-speed signal output internally. A versatile front chassis guard enhances durability further and provides mounting options for user-integrated accessories such as a camera, light source or anything else. The pair of lanyard mounting points gives drivers the ability to keep the transmitter close and gain a free hand when not driving. An easy-access accessory compartment makes it possible to can carry small tools, such as a T-wrench that smartly snaps into the internal mount provided. We increased transmitter water-resistance to give drivers peace of mind should there be an unexpected splash of water or some drops of rain. Last, but not least, is an aggressive off-road style steering wheel that expands its ruggedness even further, AND equipped it with an innovative thumb-lever to make controlling your vehicle with one-hand safer and more precise. To conquer the wild, the DX5 Rugged gives you 5-channel versatility and hosts an array of auxiliary switches for lights, winches and more. Its interface features an innovative capacitive-touch control panel that offers a greater resistance to moisture and is easy to use. Simply slide your finger over the control panel and tap to select the menus, options and values on the easy-to-read LCD display. Additionally, the DX5 Rugged Green edition features an upgraded panel from previous releases, with an improved feel, control, and system operation. Integrated telemetry and Smart telemetry capability allows you to view vital data such as motor RPM, vehicle speed, battery voltage and temperature right on the transmitter in real-time. No matter what you're driving, the AVC technology programming capability in the DX5 Rugged can be easily tuned meet your skill level or driving style with control that makes it feel like you're at the wheel of a vehicle that handles predictably at every speed.

  • Great receiver.
Was a question about touch screen. It is not. However the controls on the remote work great. I have programmed 5 into it so far and it does not disappoint. Great radio.

  • Wow. Would not buy again, extremely dissatisfied.
Have to, and hate to say, but spektrum has REALLY been dropping the ball lately. I've been in the RC hobby since I was a kid, (40-something now) and I have always used Spektrum. From the gen1 dx6 on, My current radio of choice (for air) is a Spektrum DX9, and I love it! I mean, COME ON! it's 2020 and you have a LCD display that ISNT BACKLIT AT ALL? Wow. The rest of the radio is sub-par too. I mean, pulling it OUT OF THE BOX and the rubber is coming off already, the lanyard loop near the display is simply stretchy rubber and feels like it will tear with any real amount of use (thankfully there is a hardened plastic one at the bottom that is at least a little more "rugged"), and to top it all off, it will only bind with one of the 3 spektrum receivers I have in my RC cars/trucks (One sr415 which is bound with fine, one sr300 and one sr200 both of which it will not bind with at all.) And what's even worse... A decade old Spektrum DX3C will bind with the newer and older spektrum RX just fine. But this new radio, is NOT backwards compatible. So the OLDER tech is better!? WOW. Leave it to horizon hobby to milk every penny they can from their customers via "updated" hardware or protocols. After calling their customer service, and hearing that EVEN THE REP thinks the way they do this is asinine. Every video or picture shows a bright green, when in fact it is more drab green of the military. Completely unimpressed. ... show more

  • Great radio but one small issue..
So my friends and family the run rc all had spektrum radio so I got mine and and all is good easy setup, but I use a lanyard with the radio and the rubber ring just below the screen is the best spot for the lanyard to be placed and at first I thought it was flimsy but then I used it a 2 times hang from the lanyard and I just looked at it and the rubber is torn on the inside where is spreads out on the under side of the plastic so it wont pop out.. I'm either going to use tire glue or small amout of super glue but honestly they should of just gone with a solid rubber coated plastic or just plastic and I will update the review once I do and how it works ... show more

  • Terribly difficult to navigate the menus and functions
Certainly durable. Mines taken quite a few hefty tumbles, great for having one transmitter for all your crawlers, etc. Just be ready for a learning curve, lol
