I do not know who deleted the thread but without seeing it cannot determine if there was a reason to do so or not. There can be many reasons but I think the basic thing a few of you are looking for is answers and I'm sure that both Mike and Hitec's goal is to provide them and if problems are ever found they would of course fix them as it's in their own best interest along with us the customers.

David...I am sorry to hear of your loss...if it makes you feel better I ditched 2 planes in 2 weeks...a beautiful and large Extra 300 along with my Cap 232 today...the Extra is fixed but not test flown and I'm hoping I can fix the Cap...both run all hitec rx and servos and the crashes were 100% pilot error in my case and not the fault of plane, motor or radio (although I wish I could blame them instead of myself)...
