Default Just a quick gripe...

I dont get it. I just payed right at 700 of my hard earned dollars for a new X9303 radio system. I call you guys up at product support to inquire about getting a bound manual for it, and I get transferred to the SALES department. I drop 700 bucks on a new radio, and then you guys have the nerve to tell me I have to BUY THE DAMN MANUAL FOR IT???!!!?? I understand it's twice the size of a normal maual, but COME ON!! Are times THAT hard??[:@]

On a positive note, this is one AWESOME radio system!!!

No, you are wrong. The X9303 does come with a manual---CD form ---and you obviously have a computer----why not use it.
Many of us have and find that we like it BETTER than the old analog style.

I guess it's all in perspective, $700 sounds like a lot of money to this guy. Chump change to me for a radio of that caliber. I am on the short list to get two of the 12x's the moment they are available. I could give a rats ass if they come with a manual or not!

No, matter of fact, it's not a big deal moneywise. I make enough flying full scale airplanes for a living that I dont have ANY problem affording $700 for a radio. And, now that I've played with it all day, pulled a few select pages from the CD, I'm happy now. Guess it was the initial shock that a manual wasnt included that got me. Like I said at the end of m original post, this radio is AWESOME!

I've got your "whining" right here, ace. I just came back to JR after using Futaba, and the programming is a bit different, so YEAH, I need one, or at least parts of one, just to get started.

Dude, What would you rather . . . being charged another 25 bucks for the system to have a manual, or printing the dam thing out on your paper and buying a binder for a total of less than 2 bucks.


I will print mine out myself thank you.

Like I said, I went ahead and printed out what I needed, and it's all good now. Gonna fly with it for the first time today.
