Hasn't anyone posted about the reported shootdowns, here and in the UK, with FASST equipment?? It looks like some 6 and 7 channel Xmitters have been released with the same ID or a universal ID embedded in them. This means one FASST Xmitter may control another model's RX.

I hope Futaba had a bad batch of Xmitters get thru QC and will recall them. In the meantime, we all have a problem if we fly Futaba FASST radios.

What are the details on the shootdowns-where did this happen and when? Was at a club and if so which one?

See this thread:

This is being discussed in many threads with a lot of speculation. There were TWO events in the field we know about, and they are being investigated carefully by Futaba. Information will be released as it becomes known.
