RE: Spektrum 2.4 module in my 9CAP ?
The 800lb gorilla in the room is Bind n Fly
Advocates of various brand often try to ignore this feature
However -Amongst all the flyers I know - this feature is THE biggest tie breaker in purchasing a new (or another) radio.
Model Match -some still say is not a big deal (tho it is to me )
Guys who would not be caught dead buying a new Spektrum- buy an older one to take advantage of the Bind n Fly.
Or they get a module .
Prediction: Interest in smaller models will grow - and the really big stuff -which requires dedicated flying fields - will continue to diminish
Why ? cost of driving will reach a trigger point for many .
A 100 mile round trip easily costs $20.00 or more .
No big deal to some - but -for others - yet another tie breaker in deciding which equipment to buy.
I don't like it either - and out here in the wild wild west - driving long distances is the norm.
I guess it's time to start midnight siphoning Mc Donald's cooking oil for my car -
