Your vehicles are extremely durable. Why isn't your transmitter? The Spektrum™
DX Rugged+ 12-channel surface transmitter redefines radio control with a level of
durability to match the tough conditions off-roaders, bashers, and boaters encounter
constantly. Like its predecessor, the DX6 Rugged, it features superb ergonomics.
Additionally, it's built around frequency-agile DSMR+ 2.4GHz technology and
Dual Protocol Compatibility allows easy binding with DSMR and SLT Protocol receivers.
The result is a class-leading RC system with unmatched durability and other innovative
features that unite with precision, versatility, and convenience you won't want to drive without.
To conquer the wild, the DX Rugged+ gives you 12-channel versatility and hosts an
array of auxiliary switches for lights, winches, mixes, and more. Its interface features
an innovative capacitive-touch control panel that offers a greater resistance to
moisture and is easy to use. Simply tap to access the control panel and select the
menus, options, and values. Additionally, we've added a backlight to the easy-to-read
LCD display, offering unparalleled brightness and clarity even in the harshest conditions.
Integrated telemetry capability** lets you view vital data such as motor RPM, vehicle speed,
battery voltage, and temperature on the transmitter in real-time. Plus, the integrated USB-C
Port delivers hassle-free firmware updates for uninterrupted functionality.
Molded Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) bumpers surround the radio chassis to
protect it against drops, bumps, and scrapes along the way. There's no external antenna
to snag or worry about-a low-profile ridge on the chassis internally protects the robust
high-speed signal output. 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 allows drivers to keep the transmitter
close and gain a free hand when not driving. An easy-access accessory compartment makes
it possible to carry small tools, such as a T-wrench that easily snaps into the internal mount
provided. We increased transmitter water-resistance* to give drivers peace of mind in rainy
or wet conditions. Last but not least is an aggressive off-road style steering wheel that
expands its ruggedness. It also includes an innovative thumb lever to make controlling
your vehicle with one hand safer and more precise.
No matter what you're driving, you can easily tune the AVC® technology programming
on the DX Rugged+ to 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.
*The DX Rugged+ instruction manual details water resistance limitations.
The DX Rugged+ is compatible and able to bind with SLT protocol equipped vehicles,
such as the Losi NASCAR RC Racecars, ARRMA GROM small-scale bashers and Axial
SCX24 micro crawlers. With this transmitter, you'll be able to drive SLT and DSMR protocol
receivers with one transmitter. Dual Protocol means one perfect control.
12-fully proportional channels allow for more flexibility and versatile control for auxiliary
systems such as winches, lights, etc. It's also physically lightweight so that there's less
fatigue on you during long trips, plus it's easy to transport with all of your rigs.
The DX Rugged+ is built around frequency-agile DSMR+ 2.4GHz technology. This
exclusive Spektrum™ technology can be used in any surface application, including
boats. Its range and response, particularly in noisy 2.4GHz environments, are superb.
New features of the 'plus' include the ability for users to do many different mixes,
change inputs and do other advanced programming. New mixes include Throttle Mixes,
Absolute travel support, Emergency brake feature, Logical, combo, and analog switch support.
Additionally, it supports both DRIVE and MS6X Technology. It's also backward compatible
with DSM2® and marine-specific Spektrum receivers. This means most longtime Spektrum
users can continue using their existing receivers.
Our capacitive interface to allow a tap instead of a swipe. This makes the panel much
easier to use, and the sensitivity can be adjusted easily inside the radio's programming.
This interface was also designed to operate flawlessly in a variety of environmental conditions.
Starting with a chassis based on a superb Spektrum ergonomic design, we were
inspired by the punishment capability of cordless power tools. We translated their
engineering to the specific needs of the RC driver. The result is a shock-absorbing
rubberized bumper design that surrounds the transmitter chassis to form a level of
protection never offered before on a surface transmitter.
The backlit LCD display on the DX Rugged+ helps users navigate the intuitive
software easily in any setting. The display is excellent for seeing your radio in
the dark, and it stands out even in the brightest conditions.
The DX Rugged+ stands out as a transmitter platform that means business
handling the wildest terrain, the toughest conditions, and the fiercest competition
without worry. That's why we designed durability hand-in-hand with convenience.
A built-in side compartment offers tool storage, and two lanyard mounts (one rubber,
one molded into the chassis) are supplied so you can be hands-free instantly.
The ergonomically recognized DX6 Rugged paved the way for giving the DX Rugged+
a feel any driver could appreciate. Its overall low weight offers all-day driving with
minimal fatigue, while the non-slip rubber grip and trigger-throttle action offer a precision
experience that feels natural.
The aggressive off-road steering wheel tread helps the precision of Spektrum
technology to deliver a tactile feel, even if you're crawling, bashing, or boating
in harsh conditions. The integrated thumb-lever makes it possible to steer one-handed
safely and with a higher level of precision.
The front chassis guard is built-in to increase durability further and allow users
to self-integrate personal accessories and/or features such as a camera or light
source-the sturdy guard itself and its mounting points are at your disposal.
Programming the DX Rugged+ is simple. An intuitive interface makes navigating
menus and changing settings easy. Most users can complete complex programming
tasks without looking at the manual. Plus, the integrated USB-C Port delivers hassle-free
firmware updates.
The built-in telemetry capability provides real-time information on your vehicle's
battery voltage, signal quality, and motor temperature.** Using the audio-tone
alert system, you can program the DX Rugged+ to notify you when specific
telemetry values reach or exceed your defined limits.
The DX Rugged+ allows custom-tuning an AVC system by providing easy access
to dedicated adjustments. In addition, Rugged's open channels can be used to
adjust the AVC steering and throttle systems independently. No matter what you're
driving, AVC technology can enhance your driving skills with control, making it feel
like you're driving a finely tuned vehicle that handles predictably at every speed.
