RE: Spektrum DX-7
Guys,
I have never had any radio interfernece or been shot down or shot any one else down. I have been in this hobby/sport for 32 years now. I believe that for the most part a good working receiver does not go bad barring crashes. What goes bad is servos, connection of servos to recievers, servo extensions and switches. How is Spread Spectrum going to prevent that, it can't. When guys crash 95% of the times they say it was RF interfernce when it was one of the problems listed above or Pilot error. So I would not and I am not getting hyped up at all about Spread Spectrum. The only thing it does is prevent the accidental turn ON of a transmitter by some idiot who did not check to see if he had the Freq. Pin. Oh and the selfish, un-educated Park Flyer. If Park Flyers start to get out of hand can't they be reulated somehow, someway?
Never been Shot Down. I have crashed, but that was pilot error ( mostly inverted of the ground a foot or two at 65 MPH- Oops) But most guys won't admit that.
