Default RE: what 2.4 article

my dad is bigger and stronger than your dad...<wipes nose.="" from="" snot=""></wipes>


2.4 has more than sufficient range to allow safe operation of a radio control aircraft. People fly UAVS with the stuff and they fly well beyond 3000m (yes thats 9000ft)

2.4 is not used by cell phones, its used by Wifi, bluetooth and other peripherals.

the band our new rc equipment operates on is not the issue, its the implementation of the hardware. All computers have "moments" and our Tx are not immune. There in lies the rub. The 2.4 band is merely a wavelength of light, how TF can it be faulty??! This arguement is stupid.

"i used to work for XYZ blah blah blah"
I used to work for a military contractor and designed devices that required remote activation from a long way away. Hey we used the 2.4 band and many other bands and guess what?! They all frigging worked. The only time it stopped working is when either the hardware or software "had a moment".

FFS get over yourselves.

"Brand X and Y and Z and A and B also ahd issues this year..."

Heck how moronic is that arguement. Anyone can have an issue any time. What was the root causesof those "incidents?" Don't know huh?
More people have issues they can't explain and suddenly its the wavelienght of light thats at fault. Well lads unless the sun sent out more neutrino's 8min ago I can't see that only 2.4 is going to be affected.

Hardware/software, hardware/software.
