I do know one thing!! If the companys make us go back to 72 mhz IM DONE with this hobby.. Or they will at least have give us all new radios. Cuze I am not going to buy anymore systems. I guess we /I will go back to C/L.. But that wolnt work for me. I guess I will just stick to building/rebuilding rc engines. Heck may get into raceing go carts.. Thene it will be a catch me if you can issue lol.. I also have a t-maxx thats kuel at 20ft they fly..
I don't think anyone isproposing to go back to 72 Mhz. At least not the narrow band system we have now.
I share warbird72's concern. Even if we keep 2.4, will it exist as it does today? Will I have to replace my current 2.4 equipment? (I understand that the technology is always improving. But don't make me replace equipment before it reaches the end of it's useful life!) If it's to be replaced, 2.4 better be grandfathered, or I'm done too. I'm still in this hobby by a thread. I hope all this discussion about 2.4, is as I suspect - baloney. Between this and the FAA/AMA/UAV horse hockey, I'm getting close to the end of the line with this hobby.
I doubt this would happen for a while, but the last time it did it did not require replacement of all of your radio tranmitters. You send in the transmitter to have the RF deck and possibly the antenna to be replaced.
