AS3X+ Flight Stabilization

So far AS3X+ has only been included with the 20-Channel PowerSafe Receiver and Synapse Flight Stabilization Module (SPMAR20410TS). With this firmware update, you can get the ultimate locked-in feel of AS3X+; but now in lower channel count receivers such as the 6, 8, and 10 channel Spektrum stabilized receivers (refer to the full list of receivers above). The all-new AS3X+ stabilization algorithm creates better flight performance, improves sensor accuracy and data rate, and provides pilots with a generationally different feel compared to AS3X. AS3X+ new parameters and new menus with intuitive forward programming makes it the easiest system to set up and program. It features a vastly improved stabilization algorithm that has been rigorously tested by experts throughout the hobby.

Smart Transmitter File Downloads

Smart Transmitter Files is a new feature available on Spektrum stabilized receivers that makes transmitter programming the easiest it has ever been. Instead of manually programming your transmitter from the aircraft product manual, or locating and downloading the model file online, STF eliminates the process of programming and gets you in the air faster and with more success. Once the STF download unique items specific to each model will be automatically configured in your transmitter. Features like switch and channel assignments, rates, expo, voice assignment, telemetry and other programming parameters will be saved and active in your transmitter.

To get the benefits of AS3X+ and Smart Transmitter File Transfer (STF), there is also a firmware update for NX and iX Transmitters. See the list below of some of the new features and improvements.
