what happened to the thread about the guy having Futaba support problems, this was still up last night ?? seems others had chimed in also about more problems with the 14MZ .....also my other thread about the 14 ch receivers around 2 weeks ago was CLOSED, and all I did was quote Futaba for admitting that the 14mz was their worse receiver, being the most susceptible to interference ... I was threatened by the moderator to be put on "moderated" status for that thread !!!! now another persons thread disappears ???

after my thread was CLOSED a few days ago, I had several PMs and emails from other people who had 14MZ issues, that would have liked to chime in, but were not able to because the thread was closed by the moderator to protect Futaba.

I’m sorry, but if a product is not up to par, then it should be openly discussed here, especially where signal quality comes into play ! this is the safety of US and our aircraft we are talking about here .. As jet pilots, we have a unique need for such radios with more precision and features, and any issues should be discussed here , in the context of using these in jets .. of most aspects of the hobby, we go out the furthest and the highest over other types of aircraft, therefore are more suceptible to signal loss, etc ..



I thought RCU was unbiased in its moderating policies ?? I will tell you I am not, ( even though the moderator acused me of forming a “conspiracy” against Futaba ) … in fact had a 5.6 sec failsafe lockup on a 10ch JR receiver within the past week that cost me an aircraft,( and I was fortunate to have had my engine set to shut at the 2 sec .. ) whatever interference caused that lockout caused my RF link to be ineffective for that 5.6 sec .. a week before , a friend o mine had a 2.1 sec lockout ( also engine shut down ) in the same spot with a different TX and RX … what im getting at is that we do take hits, and we all want the most secure RF link we can get .. the better the link the better the chance of not getting a hit , or as long of one … and if Futaba is saying that their new 14 ch RX is THE MOST susceptible to interference of all of their receivers , then that IS a cause for CONCERN and OPEN DISCUSSION ! …
