You know there is all this talk about radio's I like the Kiss method. Buy and fly the one you like and feel confident in and also understand how to use it Period!! They are all good and they all will have their own separate problems, recalls. With a little time they get corrected. I wouldn't run every time and switch just because a company is having a issue that I am sure they there are correcting it. If you do you will find yourself holding nothing and never flying. I see that a lot.It's not limited to just radios either. Now don't get me wrong there is some companies that can not never get it right or support the customers in the right way. We all know those and know to avoid them.
I personally have flown Futaba before 2.4 and I got back into the hobby. I gravitated at the time to Spektrum because I understood it the best on how to use it. I have used Hobby king 49.00 10 channels before with not issue in large gassers, not turbines. The point buy what you can afford and get the most out of it. don't buy because someone told you it's the best or the only one that will work.
Just think if you did that about the car you drive. If you applied the same thinking to it. You would never go anywhere.
The car can kill much faster than any RC radio.
