TERRAIN TOUGH

Your vehicles are extremely robust and durable. So why not your transmitter? The Spektrum™ DX6 Rugged™ 6-channel transmitter redefines RC car driving by increasing ruggedness to withstand the harsh conditions off-roaders, bashers and boaters face in their hobby. Just like its predecessor, the DX5 Rugged, this transmitter offers exceptional ergonomics. The result is a first-class remote control with unparalleled ruggedness and other innovative features that offer precision, versatility and ease of use you won't want to miss.

The DX6 Rugged not only offers you practical 6 channels to master the wild everyday life, it also has a number of switches for special functions such as light, winch or similar. It is operated via a touch-sensitive control panel that protects the transmitter better from moisture. Tap the desired menu item, option or value with your fingertip. In addition, we have equipped the easy-to-read LCD display with a backlight that offers unparalleled brightness and clarity even under the most difficult conditions. Thanks to the integrated telemetry and smart telemetry function **, you can display important data such as engine speed, vehicle speed, battery voltage and temperature directly on the transmitter in real time. In addition, the integrated USB-C port enables easy firmware updates for uninterrupted functionality.

There is no external antenna to shear off - a small bump in the housing protects the high-speed output signal. A versatile case protector on the front further increases durability and also offers the option of attaching a camera, light source or other devices. You can attach a carrying strap to the two attachment points, so you have the transmitter to hand but both hands free when you're not driving. An easy-access compartment lets you store a few small tools, such as a T-key, which you can snap right into place. We've also improved the water repellency* of the transmitter to give you a little more wiggle room in case you do get a splash or a few raindrops on the system. To top it all off, we've added an aggressive off-road style steering wheel with an innovative thumb lever that makes one-handed control of your vehicle safer and more precise.

No matter what you drive, the programmable AVC® technology in the DX6 Rugged can be customized to your skills and driving style, giving you the confidence of driving a vehicle that responds predictably in any situation.





b>Updated capacitive interface
We've updated our capacitive user interface to allow tapping instead of swiping. This makes the control panel much easier to use and the sensitivity can be easily adjusted in the transmitter programming. This new interface has also been designed to work flawlessly in a variety of environmental conditions.


New backlit display
The DX6 Rugged's new backlit LCD display makes it easy for the user to operate the intuitive software in any environment. The display is easy to read both in the dark and in bright daylight.


Unsurpassed robustness
Starting with a housing based on the outstanding ergonomic Spektrum design, we have taken inspiration from the shock resistance of battery-powered power tools. We have transferred this technology to the specific needs of RC riders. The result is a shock-absorbing, rubberized bumper that surrounds the transmitter housing and provides a level of protection never before offered for a surface remote control.

*For the DX6 Rugged, the waterproof limits are specified in the user manual.


Aggressive styling
Even at first glance, the DX6 Rugged gives the impression that it is made to conquer the wildest terrain, the toughest conditions and the toughest competition with you. That's why we've created the perfect balance of ruggedness and versatility with the transmitter. A built-in compartment offers the option of stowing tools. There are two attachment points for the carrying strap. One is made of rubber and the second is incorporated into the housing. Both ensure that you have your hands free when you need them.


Inspiring ergonomics
The ergonomically proven DX5 Rugged paved the way to give the DX6 Rugged a riding experience that every rider will appreciate. The low overall weight allows for all-day riding with minimal fatigue, while the non-slip rubber grip and throttle provide a precise feel.


Versatile housing protection
We have given the remote control additional protection on the front, which also gives you the option of attaching your own accessories such as a camera or light source. The sturdy protection and mounting points are fully available for this purpose.


Breakthrough in steering
The aggressive off-road tire tread on the steering wheel, combined with Spektrum precision, provides better steering feel whether you're crawling, bashing or driving a boat in the wildest conditions. The integrated thumb lever enables safe and precise steering even with just one hand.


Easy to program
Programming the DX6 Rugged is simple. The intuitive user interface makes it easy to navigate through the menus and change settings. Most users can complete complex programming tasks without looking at the manual. In addition, the integrated USB-C port enables hassle-free firmware updates.


Built-in telemetry
With the built-in telemetry function, you can get real-time information about your vehicle's battery voltage, signal quality, engine temperature, etc. of your vehicle. ** In addition, you can program your DX6 Rugged with the audible alarm system to notify you when the preset telemetry values are reached or exceeded.

** The vehicle must be equipped with a telemetry-enabled receiver such as the SR6000T (sold separately).


Frequency agile DSMR® technology
The DX6 Rugged features frequency agile DSMR 2.4GHz technology. This exclusive Spektrum™ technology can be used with any type of vehicle (including boats). Range and response time are excellent, especially in noisy 2.4GHz environments. It is also backwards compatible with DSM2® and marine-specific Spektrum receivers. This means that existing receivers can generally continue to be used. An upgrade is only necessary if you place particular value on the frequency agility of DSMR receivers in environments with a lot of 2.4GHz radio traffic.


AVC® (Active Vehicle Control™) programming
The DX6 allows you to customize the AVC system to your needs with special and easily accessible settings. In addition, free channels can be used to independently adjust the influence of AVC on the steering and accelerator pedal. Regardless of what you drive, the AVC system helps you tune to your driving ability and style, giving you the feeling of driving a perfectly tuned vehicle that performs predictably at any speed.
