Well, Peter, I guess there is an exception to every "rule": I learned to program PIL/L (Pitt Interpretive Language/L) in a 1-semester class in grad school in 1966. I learned on my own to program in BASIC, Pascal, FORTRAN, Unix, and assembler -- I think that's all. I used Unix and assembler on autonomous robots at Oak Ridge Nat'l Lab and won an award for the Lab, so I wasn't just piddling around. My first computer radio was a Futaba. I went to JR in about 1988 or 89, then Spektrum in 2007, and haven't looked back @ Futaba since.

It fundamentally comes down to two things in my experience: 

1. What was your first computer radio that you learned to program 

2. If you were taught to program a computer (not a radio) were you taught by EE/ME profs or CS profs? ( if you were taught data processing in the business school and know what COBOL and SNOBOL stand for, abandon all hope). EE->Futaba, CS->JR/Jeti, COBOL/SNOBOL->Spektrum

Funny i find the 14 mz easier to program than breathing .. Maybe its the intuitive nature of the radio thats so confusing for some 

Lol

Anything is probably easier than the 14MZ...

It is surprising Matt. The programming is very similar to the Spektrum radios and a bit of the JR 12X and 10X. I only had to look at the manual for some details but I did most of the programming without opening it. Way easier than the 14MZ I used the last few years.

Just my few pennies, and not to ruffle any JR owners feathers..... 

I am probably going to be selling it anyways, I was just going to maybe put it in some sport planes. I am a Futaba guy anyways.... I have tons and tons of experience programing almost every brand of radio out there except Jeti, or Graupner and this one is like trying to program a German Tank instrument panel cluster using a Japanese written manual..... Very frustrating......

The only ones I've seen say to return it to Horizon for a full refund and buy a Futaba.

Hello all, 

Anyone own, or know of a good youtube video for basic programing on the JR 14XG ??
