Funny, When Spektrum came out with the 2.4 system, the naysayers said it would never work. That little short ant. will never have any range, only for parkfliers. With the number of cellphone on 4.2 we'll be plagued with interference, plus a bagfull of other reasons to stay away from it. Look at where we are now. I grabbed one of the first ones around here and never looked back. But then I like to experiment with new stuff.
