Just a note. I have switched 2 years ago and now have many Spektrum RX. What I see for the near future is a reduction in costs for all major 2.4 systems. Why? Just look at what the Asian 2.4 systems are selling for. I don't intend to buy them since I don't quite trust them. However, competition is what generally dictates price. Of course I realize that Futaba etc. are Asian but those are not what I'm referring to
