Default RE: XPS 2.4 Module ??


ORIGINAL: BaldEagel

The environment I fly in is criss crossed with high power transmision and power lines, the UK has very crowded airwaves and therefore is a faily harsh environment for any system in a built up area, we fly on an estuary that has communication masts on either side of it, IFS /XPS just would not work on my site, the lock out where consistant and total, ordianary PPM has glitches, PCM seems to be reliable, but all 2.4Ghz except IFS seems to work OK, I have not tried the new system from Graupner nor intend too, as I have said before once bitten twice shy.

Mike totally true, unfortunately for JD and XPS, once bitten twice shy!! I have read many many posts like yours and it seems when it first came out it wasn't tested as it should have... Now XPS has to pay the price and will have to clean up their act or it may be their demise.

Presently XPS has the idea of getting a new system which will transmit in the actual 2.4Ghz but will have a secondary or dual system on the 900 Mhz bandwidth lets see how that goes and when it goes... People, including myself, have been asking about their 12ch receivers with no luck on release dates, he says he will release them jointly with their 16ch ones .

But well, he is trying to keep up and that by itself is outstanding given all the problems he had to face at the beginning.
