I must agree w/ Mike..
All products have issues..to me the true test is IF there is a problem is how the company handles the issue..and I must say You cant touch the customer service provided by Hi tec..Not to mention They produce a great product...i think theses other co.(jr/Futaba) need to watch out. I do believe Futaba has seen the writing on the wall offering a radio 9C comperably priced to hitec radios Eclips 7
Hitech is driving the market at this time..Go figure ..offer a fairly priced and good quality product and people will use it...
