Default Spektrum Modules and RX, where are they?

With all this XPS talk, have not heard anything about the spektrum modules and rx coming out. If I recall, the JR versions were supposed to be out by end of April, and have not seen them yet. Anyone have the scoop?

The last I heard, the JR systems would be released on or around July 20th. Donalds-Hobby.com is taking back orders now for the systems now. If you do decided to look at Donald's site, you need to click the "Add To Cart" button so see the discounted price.

Hope this helps.

As I understand it, the Spektrum systems were to be avialable the end of April and the JR systems were projected to be mid July. I'll make a couple of contacts and see if there's any updated news.

Horizon is usually not good at releasing products close to their original estimated ship dates.

I called Horizon about 2 weeks ago and asked about the Spektrum modules/receivers. They told me early May. Give them a call if you want the latest though.
