MAJOR 2.4 Ghz Spread Spectrum Release!

Article written by: Maxon Duncan

Today Horizon Hobby and Spekrtum have announced an incredibly exciting line of 2.4 Ghz Spread Spectrum products! Yup, you guessed it – modules galore and a new 9 channel AR9000 receiver!! No more vaporware, hype, or module frustration - The wait is over folks! With Spektrum’s new offerings, you can convert your existing JR 10x, 10es, 8103, and 9303’s to 2.4 in jiffy. Here’s the bombshell – modules have been announced for Futaba and Hitec systems including the MZ’s and 9c’s!

FlyingGiants has learned that these modules have been under development for the past 36 months with 19 major versions and incredible amounts of testing with surprisingly better performance than existing 72mhz modules. What we are seeing today is the result of the hard work of many people within the Spektrum organization. Namely Paul Beard – modeler at the core, friend, and the dude who made 2.4 a reality.

We look forward with anticipation to more 2.4 announcements from the major industry players! We’ll have full product details posted shortly along with some other off the chart announcements! In the mean time, enjoy our exclusive photo flood! It’s a great time to be a modeler folks, and remember where you heard it first!
