Default UNBELIEVABLE for JR module/rcvr combo

Cant believe i happen on to this but Pacific Coast Hobbies in Calif. had on ebay listed the JR Spektrum Module with AR7000 rcvr for .........$$$$$$
get this $109.99 and "buy it now" at that. I called Horizon and they verified that there was no specials or price drop and it still comes from them at
239.99.
PCH had just listed it for a 30 day sale and it was two hours into it so with two listed i bought both. Christmas in April!!!!!
When i called PCH to verify the part number they said that four were in the store for that price. Whether they still have the other two i dont know
but i have two of the four. Got them in the mail today after buying them Weds. around noon. Great service and speedy shipping.
Good luck on the other two. What a steal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got two similar combo deals for my Futaba 9C tx. You get the tx module and AR7000 for $109.99. Now I have a spare tx module.

Just looked, the Horizon website also had them for 109.95. Pretty good deal, since the RX by itself is usually 99.95. Can't beat a spare TX module for 10 bucks, might have to convert my 8103.

Does anyone have a picture of the futaba tx module c/w antenna. Do they still have the small wire coming off the tx. Spektrum pictures don't show it anymore. I was wondering if they changed it.

Horizon confirmed that the Futaba set w/rcvr was still the "special" price of 109.99. The Jr set w/rcvr was still at the 239.99. I am guessing the JR stuff
will eventually go on sell and that Horizon is pushing the Futaba sets to combat the Futaba FASST systems. Yes i got lucky

Don't know who confirmed it but it is on sale now at $109.99 on the Horizon web site.

well i thought i had a fluke but all the better that everyone else can enjoy that have been waiting for the JR module sets. Just shows what kind of markup that they can
do at our expense.

Does anybody know for certain if this will work with the 12FG? I'm guessing that it will because is specifies 12Z and 14MZ, but just want to be sure.

Thanks
