One thing to consider also, the spektrum module uses ppm which is only 512 resolution.
This is not True. Spektrum is 1024 or 2048 depending on which RX you are using.
And just because the transmitter is in ppm mode, that only has to do with the signal from the transmitter to the module that you plug in. the module produces the rf signal (notice how the antenna is attached to it and not the Tx?) which goes to the Rx and that is 2.4 gHz, PCM digital code, NOT PPM.
I'm not seeing your logic here. How do get 1024 or 2048 from 512? You can't ''create'' 1024 or 2048 out of 512 from the tx. The tx determines the resolution at the start of the data source. It's like saying you can create HD TV out of low def TV.

While it is true that the Resoulution of the Transmitter is what determines the resoulution of the signal, the PPM signal matches the resolution of the PCM for the given transmitter, which would be 1024 for the 9 CAP. My 18 year old Z-PCM JR x-347 is 512, and the spectrum module there would be limited to 512, but plug the same module into my 10X, and we're at 1024.
