 Re: Kiwi's XPS test results are up.

Are you serious? If I could prove I'd lost a plane due to XPS's short comings, you d_mn right I'd ask for the $$$ to repair it. They'd say no (cause JD will never admit there is EVER a problem with XPS now), but I'd still ask!!! | | | | | The reason why I wouldn't ask..........
XPS nor any other radio manufacturer states what type of plane, servo, motor, battery etc you use. Should they be liable for someone that chose to spend the max amount of money on every item? What if everything you put in the plane was used already from another plane? Now you also get into depreciation. How do you figure that in? Once a package has been opened the item is worth significantly less. Too many variables to expect any company to pay top dollar.
If you can't afford to lose your plane due to your own fault, someone elses fault (i.e. midair/shootdown etc) or a manufacturer defect or fault then find another hobby or fly smaller, less expensive planes.
I've lost 2 planes to a JR rx........never asked them for any money. I only asked them to replace the RX (which they never did as they couldn't find anything wrong with it). So I took a hammer to it. I'm still out the 2 planes and the RX but you don't see me bashing JR all day long.......I still fly JR
