Gee, can we shut this thread down? Now Please? Heck, someone might eventually stumble upon it and actually write something factual about a Futaba Fasst "Lockout" issue. We sure don't want that so let's lock it - NOW PLEASE!!!! I'm begging you, please shut it down. I can't stand the thought of someone writing something that might make me feel bad about all the money I spent on my cute radio system. Please hurry!!!

On a more serious note, I own both Futaba Fasst and Spektrum DSM2 systems that are all over 2 yrs old and I've never had any sort of issue whatsoever on any of them. I've been flying R/C for just over 38 yrs and started out on an old EK Logictrol system. Now that was a glitchy beast but I sure had a lot of fun with it. Heck, I'd be flying along and the plane would just pitch up or down or maybe just a twitch one way or the other of the ailerons or maybe a slight bump up or down on the throttle but luckily none of the "glitches" ever lasted long enough to cause a crash. Ah, the good ole days.
