Ok everyone,here it goes. Speaking from personal exsperience JR radio's are in my opinion JUNK! Now please dont start shooting me,but contrary to what everyone has said,there is a HUGE difference between the radio manufacturers and their respective products. I've been in this hobby over 30 years now and have flown every radio from the old Galloping Ghost to the new Spectrums. I still own and fly my MRC mark V,airtronics vanguadr 6's,airtronics 6000,challenger 7 channel,HI-TEK 7 channel,and my trusty old reliable Futabas,ranging from the Attack 4 to my 9C. Of all the radio's i've owned over the years,only one system has ever,and i repeat EVER let me down. You've probably guessed it as the JR. The radio cost me 5 planes in 2 years. Three of those planes were 1/4er scales and the last 2 were a Dirty Birdi pattern and a EagleII trainer. Now your all most likely thinking what caused the crashes and if it was pilot error,interference,or just plain old stupidity on my part. Well to answer those issues,it was NONE of the above! It was in fact due to the JR ( which stands for Junk Radio) blowing there fuses while i was flying. Yes ,JR radio's,even the newer ones all have 2 little .3 amp fuses that can and do blow quite frequently while the planes are in the air. Oh and so you all know,JR will NOT re-inburse you for the loss of any plane,brand new or not. And to top matters off,they'll charge you 3.50 each for the new fuses,and if you install them with in the first year of the radio's purchase,you void ANY warranty you had!


Now dont that sound like a GREAT RADIO!


Good Flying
