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

Thu Oct 19 15:36:34 AKDT 2006

Eric,

I guess what I got out of the RCU discussion is that this guy has a history
of making outrageous claims and over-hyping his products.  If his stuff
checks out and he can deliver, then that is great . . . but I'm not willing
to bet the safety of the people around me on some dude building RC equipment
out of his garage that may or may not have done complete testing on his
product AND has the assets / processes to back up his equipment if something
goes wrong in the future.

I'll wait for the "big guys" to make certified equipment for me. . . .
