I have two 9303 radios, an XP9303 that is about a year old and a new 2.4 X9303 that is a month and half old. I just checked both of them and found that the X9303 (2.4) red wire on the aileron gimbal had a clear, thin abrasion located right where it rubs against the electronic component (square black chip) on the rear panel when the gimbal is moved and the rear case is closed. I should add that this radio has had very little use. When I checked the XP9303 in the same area I found no evidence of any abrasion - and as has been pointed out in a previous post there is no electronic component for it to wear on when the gimbal is moved. If that is correct then it is likely that this problem applies to just the new 2.4 ghz JR X9303 systems and it is beginning to look like it is going to effect a significant number of them.

If you had not found this and reported on the forum it is likely that many of us would have lost a plane or worse. We owe you a big RC thank you.

I plan to call Horizon on Monday to let them know - as was suggested earlier it would be a good idea for each of us to call so that Horizon gets up to speed as quickly as possible. I sure wish Danny and the JR forum were both back in operation.
