The coolest part about this one is that it is using bi-directional communication for more than just linking. According to the german pdf link, it can transmit aircraft info back. So, you can transmit telemetry data back such as battery, rpm etc. Kind of like the info you'd get from an eagle tree data logger but it is apparently transmitted back to the Tx. Nice.

Pricing will be announced soon, but as with all Hitec products it will offer good bang for your buck.

+1 on that! I had a servo programmer go sideways on me and after sending it back twice they just replaced it with the brand new version they just came out with recently. I'm in Iraq and haven't even seen it yet but my buddy at the LHS says it's a "good en".

Best of all, it didn't take 6 months to get resolved. I had it back in less than two weeks.

That's pretty cool IMO.

Unrelated: Blew up my YS 110 engine and they rebuilt it and had it back in less than 10 days! Also cool!

Hey Mike Mayberry;

The radio is still several months away so needless to say the manual is not available. We'll post more info and screen shots when possible.

Mike.

No... Why do you think we would want to do that?

The fact that you barely support it now would be one large indicator. You don't have many of the accessories for the Evo, are not planning on doing the Royal-Pro at all, and for one reason or another, can't get Germany to do anything timely for the US market.

I don't think that you plan to drop the line, but for another outsider looking in, it would not be hard to get that impression . . . .
