Has any body seen this??? Comments?

Dean,
It can't be any better than the basic encoder and it looks to me like they are using the Futaba encoder and just replacing the RF module.  I wonder how they do the decoder?  You'd need a Futaba chip to do that.  
A complete new system would be better because at 2.4 GHz they have plenty of bandwidth to increase the data rate and resolution.

  Jim,
  Do you know if the latency spec for SS is peak, or some average like RMS? These guys quote 14 mS.
  This sounds fantastic, unless there is a real probability that when you stop a snap roll, the control surfaces may only get the information after 50 or more milliSeconds.
  I'll just write them, I guess.
  later,
      Dean

    There is someone flying a spread spectrum system here in Southern California, but I'm not sure this is the same thing.  The local guy is supposedly using frequency hopping not DSSS.  In any case it looks good for modelers if it works as advertised.

        I saw this on another list and wondered if anyone had seen or heard of it. No frequency pins or getting shot down again...
