In the last few days, I've added/edited the following topics:

Encoder - how to fit - Spectrum:

Thanks to Mick Regan for his original guide to setting up the Futaba and TBS 5. I'll copy the relevant bits of those posts into the Encoder - Futaba topic.

As ever (and particularly with this subject), comments, corrections, additions welcome.

you mention the encoder works on the dx6 dx7 dx9 and dx18
what about the dx8

DX8 Gen 1 and Gen 2 are fine. I believe the budget DX8e is not compatible or at least that there have been problems. Someone who knows better might correct me. I use a DX8 on my Cent but am about to install my Taranis software defined radio.

on the Dx 6, the encoder cannot be mounted, it has only 4 proportional channels, the other 2 are only on / off with 3 positions, at least on my DX6 2 series

Thanks Stephen
I have to check now to see if my Spektrum Transmitter is a Dx8 or a Dx8e and if it is a Dx8e I will have to research the compatibility and issues more and see what i can find
I will get back to you on this forum when i have some more info
