Default Used Futaba R5114DPS G3 receivers

If there are so many RCers moving to 2.4g why are there so few used Futaba R5114DPS G3 receivers for sale?

I have two JR XP9303 Tx's. One has a 72Mhz Synthesizer RF module and one has the Spektrum module. I am converting over slowly as I still have a number of 72Mhz Rx's to replace.

There is no question in my mind that 2.4 is the way of the future. Of the 30 years I have been flying RC, the last two years has been great not having to wait for the Frequency pin, worry about accidental shoot downs, and deal with a variety of RF interference problems.

2.4 is GREAT!!!

I am keeping mine so that if my 2.4 module fails in my 12FG I can switch to 72mHz and keep one aircraft in the air while waiting for repairs.

So if no one wants the R5114DPS anymore how much are they worth in the used market?
