This is the Spektrum DX5 Rugged 5-Channel DSMR Radio System with SR6200A AVC Receiver. The Spektrum DX5 Rugged surface radio set new high standards for durability, convenience and precision. Now it's even better, with upgrades including an SR6200A AVC receiver for the connectivity advantages of innovative Smart Technology.
When it was first introduced, the Spektrum DX5 Rugged 5-channel surface transmitter gave new meaning to durability - surviving the harshest conditions and abuse that any basher or crawler could put it through. This updated version adds the very latest Spektrum advances to the DX5 Rugged design to provide the ultimate experience in worry-free surface control.
Spektrum engineers have paired the DX5 Rugged transmitter with its perfect RC system partner, the SR6200A 6-channel receiver. The SR6200A includes the newest and best Spektrum exclusive technologies. Frequency-agile DSMR technology provides superior range, response and signal security. AVC (Active Vehicle Control) technology can be tuned easily to match your skill level or driving style for predictable handling at every speed.
The DX5 Rugged with SR6200A receiver is also ready out-of-the-box to support innovative Spektrum Smart technology. Smart Technology ensures that all of your model's electronics work together seamlessly for the greatest efficiency and performance. With a Spektrum Firma Smart ESC and Smart battery in your vehicle, you'll have real-time telemetry data available at your fingertips to keep you aware of every component's status and to boost your confidence in its capabilities.
This Smart compatibility joins many other features that have made the DX5 Rugged the standout favorite for heavy-duty surface control. The transmitter follows the ergonomic lessons of the popular Spektrum DX5C and DX5 Pro, while taking additional inspiration from cordless power tools for its die-hard design. Molded Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) bumpers defend it against damage from drops and bumps. There's no external antenna to snag - 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 or light source. A pair of lanyard mounting points let you keep your hands free when not driving. A convenient accessory compartment can hold your small tools. Spektrum engineers also gave the transmitter extra water-resistance; an aggressive, off-road style steering wheel; and an innovative thumb-lever for safe, precise one-handed control.
The DX5 Rugged interface has been updated with a new, flat panel touch pad that responds with a smoother feel as you select programming menus, options and values on the large, easy-to-read LCD display. There's memory for up to 20 cars, crawlers, trucks, buggies and boats - enough for you to run all of your surface models with the most rugged and versatile radio available today.
Inspired by the punishment capability of cordless power tools, Spektrum engineers combined superb ergonomics with a die-hard design to meet the specific durability needs of RC drivers. A shock-absorbing, rubberized bumper surrounds the DX5 Rugged transmitter chassis to create a level of protection never before offered in a surface transmitter.
Built around frequency-agile DSMR technology, the included Spektrum SR6200A 6-channel receiver delivers superb range and response along with unbeatable signal security in a compact, easy-to-install package. AVC (Active Vehicle Control) technology increases your stability on tough terrain. Compatible with innovative Smart Technology, the receiver also provides real-time telemetry data when used with a Smart ESC and Smart battery (available separately).
The Spektrum DX5 Rugged with SR6200A receiver comes ready to provide the advantages of state-of-the-art connectivity right out of the box by supporting the innovative, all-in-one telemetry of Spektrum Smart batteries and ESCs. Smart Technology ensures that all of your vehicle's electronics work together seamlessly for the greatest efficiency and performance. It keeps you aware of every component's status, boosts your confidence in its capabilities, and makes your entire system more responsive and simple to use.
The DX5 Rugged stands out as a transmitter platform that means business - handling the wildest terrain, the toughest conditions and the fiercest competition without worry. Its unmatched durability comes hand-in-hand with convenience. A built-in side compartment offers tool storage, and two lanyard mounts (one rubber, one molded into the chassis) let you be hands-free in an instant.
The ergonomically acclaimed DX5 Pro and DX5C transmitters paved the way in giving the DX5 Rugged a feel any driver will appreciate. Its overall low weight allows all-day driving with minimal fatigue, while the non-slip rubber grip and trigger-throttle action deliver precise control that feels perfectly natural.
The aggressive off-road steering wheel tread helps you keep a secure grip to deliver exact control input even when you're crawling, bashing or boating in harsh conditions. The integrated thumb-lever makes it possible to steer one-handed safely and with precision.
The DX5 Rugged interface has been upgraded with a new flat panel touch pad. It responds to the simple touch of your finger with a smoother feel and operation. The transmitter's large LCD display also helps make navigating the intuitive software easy.
Programming the DX5 Rugged is simple. An intuitive interface makes navigating menus and changing settings easy. Most users can complete even complex programming tasks on the fly.
The DX5 Rugged makes it possible to custom-tune an AVC system by providing easy access to dedicated adjustments. Open channels can be used to adjust the AVC steering and throttle systems independently. No matter what you're driving, AVC technology makes it feel like you're running a finely tuned vehicle that handles predictably at every speed.
The DX5 Rugged is built around frequency-agile DSMR 2.4GHz technology. This exclusive Spektrum technology can be used in any type of surface application, including boats. Its range and response, particularly in noisy 2.4GHz environments, are superb. It's also backwards compatible with DSM2 and marine-specific Spektrum receivers.
