It seems to me that while spread spectrum as a modulation technique could be a very positive improvement for RC flying, the use of 2.4 GHz is just a bad idea. I realize this is a tall order, but I would like to see the AMA approach the FCC for another frequency allocation. Something in the hundreds of MHz should greatly improve the performance of spread spectrum. With TV going from analog to digital and reassignment of the analog TV channels expected to occur in the next 5 to 10 years, this may be the opportunity we need.
