Xjet, the instructions for binding and range checking shown on that website is hilarious, isn't it? Change the frequency? Collapse the antenna? Do they know what they are talking about at all? Are you planning to buy one to review? chewy |

| Re: Kiwi's XPS test results are up.
I am in dialog with the company. Apparently the information on the website is a little out of date, even the pictures are wrong. Also, with a claimed range of just 800m and no failsafe, they would be (in my book) strictly park-flier/sport-model equipment. I've attached a picture of the latest version of this product.

Tell you what I just picked up some good stuff from them for stock. Silicone wire, heat shrink tubing. Blades for my boys electric helis. 10 sets for 38 bucks means I dont loose a lot of sleep when they get whacked up. 4mm gold connectors and a few charging leads. I see they show out of stock on the 2.4Ghz stuff so I will wait and see there. Yes 800 meters is not very far away and it would be nice to see it full range.. I'm also sure they will get a way around the fail-safe issue just like ASSAN did with the first modules. Funny how they just picked on FUTABA for now. I wonder if they will bring out modules for the other brands. |

In my experience, it's always a risky proposition to by version 1.0 of anything that's made in China :-)

Also, it can't be good for a simple reason: It doesn't have a Graupner-label. :P | ||||||||||||||||||
