Any transmitter or other type brief case that will accept any other transmitter will accept the 9303 2.4. The antenna folds 90 degrees, as well as rotates 90 degrees.

just left winnemac jet spiderman..many setups to compare. one setup stood out with the 9000 and 2 remotes..consistently less than 10 frames cross all antennas. more later. the jet guys...over 200 fights. not one glitch or problrm

flew with the JR9 2.4 this weekend. it is faster than the DX7 just a bit,

Yes I believe it is digital throughout. Also got my hands on the 12X demo (oh baby!!) Made my day.

Flew again today. I am 100% confident in this system. The most frame losses I saw was 14 (JR says 20 or so is acceptible), and we are surrounded by powerlines and houses, and there was some weather activity as well. My fades varied, anywhere from 20 or so on a flight to as many as 75. This is still considered very good, so I will leave it.

Goosef22 what did you notice from the outside about the 12x? not talking about the program. any big differences than the 9303?

[GooseF22]

The 12 feels like the 10 x, very hardy. it had two extra rotary knobs on the top, otherwise much like a cross between the 9303 2.4 and the 10x. It is a specactular radio. the jet guys are going to scoop these up like wildfire. In my opinion it will be the last radio you ever need.

The prgramming will be more like the 9303 at first glance. the 12 channel receiver isn't even visible yet, but it is in development. I asked. I am thinking it will look like the 921 but wider. We asked for 2 battery ports, would be nice.

It did retain the analog throttle trim. I flew with a 10 x for the first time last weekend, I was a futuba guy before DX7. I really like that radio. I see why everyone bought one.

I picked up a module for my futuba super 8, for the 10SX, and I am going to wait on the 12X for my last radio. Im actually going to fly my propjet with the futuba module because it feels better than the DX7 and has better mixing.

I just loved the 12x setup. It will be the king of the radios. and with 2.4 bulletproof. It will allow smart mixing like the DX7(servo sync). as well as all the latest 9303 lessons learned.

over 1/2 of the guys were flying modules this weekend. Not one glitch. I bet there were over 200 flights.

Thanks for the info, I'd like to have one but I don't use much of the programming in my 10x now. just trying to weigh my options on either the 9303 or 12x.

[Right-On]

I just got mine (9303 2.4) wed. & I have got to say I really like the radio it is nice but I didn't like no manual or the ease of getting to the mechanics of the radio, I like the design of the 10x but thats my thoughts.

So after drooling over the radio and %%@#$$ because I have to print out a manual I installed the reciever in my carden 330 hooked everthing up including data logger charged the batteries(Nimh) and started to set up the plane, checked the batteries with a i4c @ 500 load and shows 6.7volts but the data logger only shows 6.1 volts? I unhooked the dual servo controls so that only one servo controls that surface and I still get the same numbers? any sugestions

[GooseF22]

put a y cord in and measure them off the same plug same port. I wouldn't get too excited. borrow another volt meter to make sure yours is good.

[Right-On]

Cool, I'll try that. thanks

[Ronbo]

Is anyone still flying with the module conversion on the 9303?

For a tx case, look no further than Lowes or Home Depot. there is a case that I use for about $25 that is as good or better for carrying tx or anything else rather than paying the big hobby prices out there.

Hey Goose: did the 12X demo have that rotary knob to use for going through the programming like the 9303 has or did it have the push button screen like the 10X has?
