I believe that spektrum would be effected as well but have 2X's the chance to survive over xps unless the entire 2.4 band is swamped then none of them would survive. Futaba is looking like the overall best solution but..
Why is every body always picking on XPS!? WHY, WHY,WHHHHHHHY!!!!!!?????Yer all haters!!! ALL OF YOU!!!! XPS doesn't deserve all this!!!You people are sooo mean .................WHY!! lol

Whoo hoooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YEA!!, The truth is out now!

In the near future we will be looking back on the 2.4 market when it was new and say remember that old XPS stuff that would grab onto one frequency and hold on to it until it went into fail safe.Boy weren't we all suckers to fall for the sly marketing words of Jim Drue.2.4 that doesn't hop is useless and dangerous!!!

All the helicopter guys at my club use XPS. If only they knew how dangerous it is!!! It scares the heck out of me!!! It might take 150 or (50 flights like me) to learn the hard way. I hope to God nobody gets hurt when there XPS goes south and I hope I am not there to see it!

Your helo guys should all go fly in the main room at a Sushi and Japanese Steak house. . that way, if they get 2.4 lockout, at least the whirling blades can help make dinner. . . . .
