has been on back order?

I heard that they are coming out with a new one that uses the internal transmitter antenna. Has anyone else heard that? Where else can I buy a module to control Spektrum systems? I bought a 9X Pro and am anxious to use it.

Orange stuff gets made in a big run from time to time, so it's only available after a production run and usually not for very long. It's not very good, but modelers who want cheap things buy it up as fast as they can anyway. FYI, some of their receivers have a bad reputation for reliability. Others seem to be fine. You might consider doing some searching around on RCU to learn the difference. The money you save with cheap radio gear frequently gets respent many times over in repairing or replacing wrecked airplanes.

There back orders can run months or days. One thing we learned was if you had a large order and one item was on back order they held the order until the back ordered part came in. We never placed an order if something was on BO but would place separate orders.
