[NSRCA-discussion] Upgrade TX module and RX to the new 2.4 GHztechnology

Hi Eric,
I believe only a few folks have flown prototypes so far. I've heard third hand that they are working great.
My understanding is they will plug into a Futaba or a JR and the receiver will work with both or either. The signal at the interface would be PPM but the module would convert it to PCM. By oversampling the PPM signal they theoretically can get better resolution than the PPM signal. If it works as advertised it is a winner.

Keith,
I read all of the thread and all of the related threads on RCU and also the other discussion lists.
What I am asking is, "Has anyone on this list tried it out yet?"
I noted that the one replacement module was being made to fit a Futaba TX and a second version to fit a JR TX . I then wondered if either "brand" of RF module could then be used to lock into and drive one 2.4 GHz receiver? (Asked another way, "Would the associated 2.4 GHz receiver work with either radio?").
I also wondered if the "big two" were planning a module-and-receiver release of their own?
I have a boat-load of JR and Futaba TX's that all use plug in RF modules. A while ago I vowed not to buy any new radios until the RF link was redesigned and was much more robust than it is today.
I was also curious about any PCM functionality retention, vestigial properties or redundancy.
Not promoting the product - just asking..
Eric.

There is alot of "smoke and mirrors" about this guy. . . read the whole thread on RCU.

Status: offline We are pleased to announce that we will be releasing
a new product in the near future that will allow you to upgrade you exiting
Futaba, JR, and Hitec radio systems to 2.4GHz.
Our system replaces the existing transmitter RF module and includes a
brand new receiver.
This is a professional upgrade, not a park flyer upgrade. Our system
offers up to 5 miles of range, no frequency conflicts, the ability to have
up to 390,000 people flying at the same time, and gives you the option of
having telemetry data.
Information and pictures of the prototype units are on our website.
