Default RE: WARNING-X9303 CHAFED AILERON GIMBAL WIRING

I just talked to Nathan at Horizon and he says they are "unaware" or any problems with this issue. Every X9303 owner should check this wire bundle from the aileron/elevator gimbal. Follow the owner's manual directions for adjusting the sticks and you can gain access to visually check the wire bundle. If you have chafing, it should be addressed. If one of these wires rubs completely through, a loss of airplane would result. It is not that difficult to check. It seems the majority of transmitters are OK, but some are affected. I just checked this thread on the other forum, http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=903288 , and there are alread three people there who have this problem.
