Guys I promise you all this thread is far from over and I am doing everything I can to get Xjet a setup of all four available systems so the shootout is fair and equal for everyone.

I figure if he can test each system against the same level of background noise we should be able to determine what is best and what just plain does not work good at all. No matter what the result it must be good for everyone concerned. We as users and the manufacturers themselves. I will repeat myself yet again when I say members are asking why we cannot have some form of product testing and fair and open reporting done by some of the experts we have here on site as members. Well unless I am mistaken what the heck do you think we are doing here???

The thing that puzzles me most so far in this thread is the constant inference that Xjet is slamming XPS with unfounded accusations and refering to opinions as opposed to facts.

Its obviously the reverse. XPS does not frequency hop when overwhelmed by a strong 2.4Ghz signal. XPS have admitted that and they say they have a fix on the way coming next year. In the mean time if I was flying XPS I would be horribly damned concerned about flying it on anything I was not totally prepared to crash and loose, let alone cause some third party injury or damage.

What I did not see here or on any of the sites JD associates himself with is a warning to all users stating clearly that his system has limitations that USERS NEED TO BE AWARE OF. Xjet has at least woken a few of us up to the potential. Note I said potential, not absolute.

Yes Spektrum had voltage issues and that was found and sorted by the RC modelling community as much as the manufacturer, but they did come out and say VOLTAGE IS AN ISSUE and they recommended some fixes.

Gents if we are to be a fair and open minded community we need free and open debate, we need to also respect the rights of the manufacturer to respond, but the in and out plain nonsensicle bickering over who said what and when does not shed one iota of light on what could be a very important issue for XPS and others, maybe.


I see the answer as being dead simple. If you have an XPS unit in your plane and you trust it go fly it. If your a little bit conservative and you would like to see someone try and prove the strengths and weaknesses of the system then patiently wait for the guy to do what he promised.

As for me I dont need any darned video. I know what the answer will be because XPS said they dont hop if the hit is sudden. I want to see it hop if the hit is slight now as well.

Anyone who has even the slightest interest in seeing some factual results on what how and why with 2.4 Ghz needs to stay subscibed to this thread.

If not it is as easy as clicking the unsubscribe button and leave this place to those who want to learn and not from opiniated people, but people prepared to put the time and effort into testing something.
