JR's New 9303

[Troy Newman]

Hey guys,

A question came up about the JR 9X a few weeks ago on this list. Well As I
stated before the 9X was different than the new JR 9303. As promised I
received some info on the new JR 9channel system in the mail today. Its the
new Airtime flyer that Horizon sends out to  customers on the mailing list.
Many of you might already have gotten it. You can sign up to get the mailer
from the Horizon website.

I promised I would pass along some info as soon as I got it so here it is.

XP9303 this system is the new JR 9channel, 30model memory, and 3 model type.
Yes its got a 30 model memory and does Airplanes, sailplanes, and heli's

The look of the radio is similar to the 10X in the case but it doesn't have
the touch screen. It has a roller to navigate the programming on the big 10X
style screen. As you guys know the big screens make it easy to see all the
info and what is going on in radio's setup...So to put a huge 10X style
screen on this radio was a big step.

Some of the cool things for pattern flyers is it has flight modes
(conditions) 3 of them in Airplane and 5 in Heli and sailplane mode. There
are also some cool things that have never been in a computer radio before.


Built in dual throttles setup with separate throttle curves and trims on
each throttle channel.
2 throttle curves (I use this for a Windy and calm condition curves in my
10X)
3+1 digital trims same as the 10X and 8103DT
DSC capable
Adjustable trim rates like the 10X
Model transfer, and copy between TX's
Servo Speed adjustment in both directions
Snap roll button 4 directions/rates
Triple timers
6 program mixes
Switch assignment
Trainer system (selectable channels)

these are just some of the options in the radio that I saw that would work
great for pattern flyers.

This thing is really going to knock your socks off.  Its almost a 10X for
the price of an 8103. This is more radio than any other out for the price.
$499.99 for TX and 770 PCM RX only or 599.99 for the complete radio system
with 649 (9channel)PCM RX and (4) 811 digital servos.

I'm really excited to see this radio get here. Horizon made big improvements
over the 9X and it was worth the wait.

I think the bar just got raised on the competition.

I'll keep you guys posted as I find out more info. If you have any questions
that I might know just email me offline. I think the advertising is starting
out so they should be in the Hobby shops pretty soon. Nothing like touchy
Feely and I haven't got to play with one yet. I'll keep you guys posted.

Troy
