whether frequency hopping is better than DSM but rather will JR stick with DSM
indefinitely. I don't want to spend $1400 on a new transmitter that will
be out of style in the near future. Matter of fact, you can buy
conversion kits from German companies (Weatronics and ACT) that are better
than both DSM and FASST. The Germans use frequency hopping where the
transmitter and receiver talk back and forth to each other. These German
systems aren't cheap but they are certainly better than what we have in the
US. Regardless of what system you go with 2.4 GHz is better than 72 MHz.<br>

switch to 2.4 this winter. This module is the solution to my
problem. I love the 10X, 9303 and 12X radios. I don't like the DSM2
technology, I feel frequency hopping is a superior technology not to mention
you can't use DSM2 in Europe. Either Europe will eventually approve DSM2
or JR will switch to frequency hopping worldwide. This solution will
afford me more time to see what JR decides to do. So I plan to try this
module out on my foamies and park flyers and if I experience no problems I will
use it in my pattern planes come this spring unless JR makes a switch to
frequency hopping. I know there are a lot of people in my situation.<br>

In all seriousness, I think it makes little sense to cross over brands this
way. FASST, JR, or Airtronics; things work just fine. I could
see the initial idea that Horizon had with Spektrum to get the world
moving to Spread Spectrum with their modules, but I think that time has passed
us by. As far as preserving the value of an investment in a transmitter
by moving to another brand of receivers with a module - why? Go with a
brand you like and don't look back to gimmicks to cross over part way.
You always lose something in the process.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal>Personally, I like the FASST system. I must have a dozen
2.4g receivers now. I have nothing against the JR/Spektrum, a lot of my
friends fly JR (I am in a very small minority in my club flying Futaba). I
will admit that I bought the Spektrum module for one of my old Futaba
transmitters, so that I could do the "bind-n-fly" thing as well.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I will tell you guys a funny story. I was at Efest this
year. I was flying a Vapor over in the corner for the ultralight planes, and
heard someone walk up behing a friend of mine (Jeff Phillips, Radioactive
Airshow Team) and start asking him how he liked the Vapors. Well, I thought
it must be someone who had never flown a Vapor, so I turned around and handed
him my transmitter, an old Futaba 7UA with a Spektrum module, so he could fly
it. It happened to be Peter Goldsmith. :-) I wish I had said "feel
the difference" to him. <o:p></o:p></p>

for indoor this year with some of those really small Spektrum receivers.
It's also great for the E-Flite Bind-N-Fly models. I just didn't see the
