I DON'T AGREE WITH YOU.
I SAW QUIQUE SOMENZINI WON HIS FIRST TOC IN LAS VEGAS BACK IN 94, AND YES, HE WAS FLYING WITH FUTABA, SO I THINK IS MOST OF THE CONVENIENCE FOR THE PILOT IN TERMS OF MONEY WHO THEY FLY FOR. I AGREE THAT FUTABA, JR, AIRTONICS, HITEC AND MULTIPLEX ARE ALL VERY GOOD RADIOS, IS JUST A MATTER OF PERSONAL TASTE.

....and my daddy can beat up your daddy....Blah,Blah....Not another of these threads! JR Tuscon Shootout? Why even bother with these posts?
Everyone has a reason for using what they use, and just as many classes have been won with Futaba as JR and so on......
Every radio has its positive and negative points, and I think there are plenty on both sides that would be quick to point them out.....

Hmm...I did just realize something....Jason won the ETOC and XFC with Futaba...he got 2nd and 3rd at the Masters and TAS with JR....

I honestly feel the same way, that brand loyalty is dumb unless one product is undeniably better (when you look past the name). I fly airtronics, and half of my planes have 3 or more brands of servos and receivers in them.

Good point...and also mine...I cant tell you how many guys use Futaba radios with JR servos, or Hi-Tech. The point is unless you are asking questions about features, prices, or comparing radios in general, these post are useless to anyone, and are just showing ignorance........
