Ignore that hobby king sells them it is not an hk product. Hk is no reflection on frsky products.

I bought a taranis mid 2013 from the first batch. The software capability outguns anything else you can buy at any price. You can have up to 32 channels and you can split them over a second protocol by fitting the external module from spektrum or jr or multiplex so that you transmit both frsky and another brand at the same time. There isn't another tx that can touch the taranis.

But I do not use it on my jets or other large/high value models. Yet. I want a couple of years using the frsky stuff to prove it's reliability before I am prepared to trust a jet to it. Frsky has been used by many people for two or three years now and they all praise the reliability of the radio link but I want to experience the build quality and mechanical reliability first hand.
