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
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.
