Hey, Bill...Thanks!
As it turned out, I just returned from our airfield where I was "indoctrinated" into the clandestine world of BECs. As you might have gathered, I have not wandered too deeply into this 2.4 estoterica. I appreciate your reinforcement of my newly-learned lesson. Thanks too for the information about Futaba products availablility. I hope that the leisure products corporate giants sort out their sh*t and bring your products back to the hobby shops where they belong!
