Spektrum DX6i Stick Pot Service Bulletin

DX6i owners are advised: our service center
has a concern of potentially bad stick
potentiometers, which can be identified with
this easy process:
1. Turn on your transmitter and select the
servo monitor display.
2. Smoothly move the sticks in each axis,
carefully watching the commanded position on
the monitor.
3. The monitor should show smooth movement
tracking with the input. If the monitor
"jumps" or hesitates, please send your
system in for service using the Web address
below.
Radios with date codes of 809E, 810E, 811E,
and 812E should be carefully checked. If
your radio does not have a date code, the
test is still advisable. And please, as is
common, check your controls before flight.
We apologize for any inconvenience, and
thank you for your patience.
