Default Re: Problems!! 14MZ 2.4 R6014FS

I have just read the whole thread from start to finish.

I have only just purchased myself a brand new 2.4Ghz 14MZ radio. My JR 10X with Spektrum module is getting a little long in the tooth, I wanted to try a new radio as I have absolutely no alleigence to either brand and the 14 had been 'calling' to me for quite a while.

Living in a hot part of Australia, and flying a comp-arf super extra, the failures that people have been having are scary to say the least. I am sure that Futaba will find us a solution to the problem, but it may take more than a few weeks before this happens. I believe this is reasonable, we dont want a quick fix, a researched and engineered solution is what I hope for.

In the meantime I will be purchasing a Spektrum Airmod module for my brand new 14MZ so I can fly my planes without the uneasiness of 'thinking' there is a problem. Yes I will be down to 8 channels for a few months but I wont be worrying about hiding my plane in the shade.
