If you've ever managed a music library on your PC or smart phone, you can program the DXe. All you need is the free Spektrum programming app. Using this interface you can create and save basic model setups with different settings for: -Servo Reversing -Stick Configuration: Modes 1-4 -Wing Type: Normal or Delta/Elevon -Expo: On or Off -Trainer Modes. For advanced programming features such as stick configuration, wing type selection, expo on/off function, model setup import and many more, the Spektrum programming cable (SPMA3081-Mobile) is required.
