[NSRCA-discussion] Digital Pug-In module

[Robert Gainey]

Larry

I have the Futaba module and it works great. It works on my 9C and my 9Z. Just set the transmitter to PPM and plug it in. No extra wires, no conversions, no wireless router antenna or whatever. Just plug it in and enjoy. Its made by Futaba for their radios.

Not knocking the spectrum stuff. I have friends that fly it and it works great also. However, I preferred to use what was engineered to work with my radios by the people that made the radios.

Some of the best money I have spent on this hobby in recent years.

I have a Futaba 9C currently on 72 MHZ. I see that both Futaba and Spektrum have conversion packages for 2.4 access. Any comments on either or both? (Spektrum is offering a good price right now!) Thanx-- Larry
