Default RE: *Airtronics RD8000 2.4 GH*

Indeed Sanwa is late to the game, but indeed they are now in it. New management at the parent company in Japan is fueling the fire. They are committed and aggressively pursuing R&D.

And while I feel your pain in the release time frame, it is there for a reason. This technology is complicated and new and we will NOT release a system until I am sure it works. We will test it first on the bench, then locally, then with our pilots across the country, and only then will we release it. The development schedule for Airtronics is accellerating and you'll see many new products from Airtronics. It isn't just one 2.4g system being developed, but many systems as well as all of the peripheral equipment including and expanded line of world-class servos.

Airtronics is committed to 2.4G and to new product development. But first and foremost, it is quality/reliability first.

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me. You can pm me here or email if you wish.
