RE: HITEC 15MZ
Multiplex can concentrate on the high end with the evo's if they want to stick to sailplanes and scale type planes. Who would want to use a multiplex evo for aerobatic/pattern/3-D? I mean it has flight modes but each flight mode your stuck with the same expo across the board - making it a real pain for 3-D and aerobatic flight etc...
I thought when I heard Futaba was coming out with a new "high end" radio before it was announced 12 channel (let's not kid ourselves it's a 12 channel radio.for the most part) it would replace the 9z with easier programming and other use extras. It didn't. It went above and beyond...which turned me off of it.
