Default Queseion

I have been a Futaba user for 50 years I go back to when you were in Irvine, I have 72 and 2.4. The 2.4 are hard for me to program. My question is on FB there is a lot of people claiming to lose signal. I have had a few instances where it has happened bad crystal or a battery pack disconnect. On Face Book in the SAD part crashes are blamed on signal loss, Honestly do you get that many complaints coming in for signal loss? It seems to me the older TX's were much more simple than these new ones but they also did less but still work well. Thanks for any input you can help with. Also this stuff of the letters coming off, at there prices and quality of Futaba they should do something about that since Futaba is the most expensive and is suppose to be the best even if they are not number 1 because people want price instead of quality.
Thank You

The first thing people claim after a crash is they "lost it"!! It can happen, but often further investigation finds another cause. But widespread lost of signal is nto something the majority of Futaba users worry about. Most will tell you that the robust link is one reason they like Futaba.

The 16SZ lettering is unfortunate, and as I have said elsewhere they are aware of it, just not sure if there is a fix. I covered mime with nail polish. Has held up well for a few years now. But so many reasons can cause this, right down to how much people sweat, fuel on their hands, etc.

If you have specific programming questions please feel free to post them here. That is what this forums exists for.

Take care.
