Default RE: Futaba SS listed at towerhobbies

Hi Dick,
Are you saying that the futaba system will have a much higher latency, wont have a model save and no features? Wont the futaba system have the advantage thru a module whereas the spektrum system will always be limited to the version of the transmitter that you purchase? IE, IF futaba puts out a module then for probably $100 I'll be able to use my 9c with the 6 channel ss system whereas with the spektrum to get more channels you'd actually have to buy their new 9 channel or whatever radio they step up to? So you'd probably have to re-invest another $3-400 anyway?

The 9c, in ccpm mode has an extremely high latency rate, do you know if it's the same latency rate in airplane mode? I believe that i read that it just has to do with the ccpm right?

I'm mainly looking at the option of being able to step up to a module.. If you can't do that then the dx7 is definately the better system right now
