Does Hitec have any plans for a small 3/4 ch 2.4Ghz receiver?I'm very happy with my Optima 7's Ihave but Icould definitely use something smaller in my RES sailplanes.
Thank you!

Yes, there are two micro 5 channel RX's (most planes use dual aileron servos so why build a 4ch?) in the works due later this year that will weight about 4-5grams. One will have the connectors on the top and the other with them on the side. Street price will be around $35.

I already know about the Optima 6 LITE and the Minima 6 receivers as well as modifications that can be done to the Optima 6 and am considering all of the above, but the micro 5 channel for about 35 bucks still tops them all when it comes to something to stick in a foamy so I just gotta ask.

I could have sworn I specifically said I was already aware of the current lightweight options, hence my question about the upcoming lightweight options. You even quoted my post where I said I knew about them when you replied to tell me about them. [X(]
