you get what you pay for, if Hitec had the quality that JR does then they'd bring the same price or they'd drive JR prices down but they don't, just like a Ford Festiva isn't gonna drive the price of a BMW down.
Completely incorrect! Always have used Hitec and never had any issues in the air. I will always buy Hitec for many other reasons other than a great price.
Oh and you don't really save that much, 8711's run $120-$130 and 5995's or 5955's run roughly $115. BIG SAVINGS!!! Now I can get that really cool Dr. Zivago ray gun I have been wanting!!!!
Also, install that brand new shiny 8711 and hook it up then find out that you need to reverse the servo, WAH WAH WAHHHHH, oh you can't!!! You have to buy a reversed one!! If you had a 5955 in there you could just hook up the programmer and reverse it. Pay $20 more for less functionality, come on now!!
