I somewhat agree with you except i would have to be on a porta potty flying anything worth $2000.00 with any receiver. I've been flying R/C for 40 yrs and have lost aircraft due to radio failure with some of the best radios out there. This is a different age. Technoligy has changed. I don't like to pay for something thats been marked up 10 times. Some of us just can't afford it. I do not want to sacrafice the enjoyment of this hobby because i can't afford it. I've already stepped down many notches because my passion is large scale. Cannopt afford. Just being honest., thanks Mike Scott, [email protected]
