Default RE: HiTec Optic 6 Case & handle Issues

Hopefully for those that have a large investment in HT gear, they'll sort out the case issues on future models.
IMHO, the basic electronics are good on their radios but the Cases let them down (module fitting, breaking handles & charge jack areas).
If you plan on changing brands in the future, remember that there may be compatability issues to deal with for your Rx's etc. I've just been through it and have purchased 2 x Tx's, and 30 new receivers so far (I use PCM which is brand specific) all those receivers are 6 or more channels (most were the PCM version of the Supreme 8s and were changed to JR R2100's mostly) - it was not a cheap exercise but the risk of the cost of losing just one plane due to Tx damage making that decision was one that I am comfortable with.
