Default Re: Futaba Fasst vs Spektrum radio link

I have been using Spektrum since it came out, it works great for me and i am impressed with their product offerings like the new AR9100. I have decided to commit to this technology and have ordered a X9303 transmitter.

Before the DX7 came out I used Futaba transmitters exclusively along with mostly Futaba receivers. I was completely happy with Futaba. I have no axe to grind with Futaba.

I think the transmitter technologies are roughly equivalent. These are two completely different ways of doing the same thing. But I think the Spektrum/JR receiver approch is much better.

There must be some reason why Spektrum developed the satellite receiver concept. Futaba does not use this and I am thinking this may be the source of their delays in delivering product.

Even if Futaba does work as well, Spektrum is here now and I want to move forward.
