All million-or-so Futaba radios I've owned have always worked REALLY, REALLY, REALLY great
Glad to hear it. How many of them were running Windows though ? After all, that's the question being pondered here - not whether Futaba's
prior products have been good, but whether the use of the Windows OS on the latest Futaba TX should be cause for concern or not.

My point, Gordon, was that from my years of personal experience with their radios, I don't believe Futaba would put out a new product unless it was totally debugged and of superior quality. I also have the greatest respect for JR radios as I have flown many of my friend's JR's with no problems.
BTW, Gordon, you may not remember me, but I want to say that I REALLY appreciated it, 3 years ago, when you took the time to give me the ground instruction I needed to acquire my turbine waiver, as I came all the way from Alaska just to see you for the ground instruction and Jake, in Sacramento, for the flying portion. (The previous paragraph, I realize, could be used very nicely in an English class to illustrate a run-on sentence. LOL)
