Sitting here looking at the ad for Reflex XTR2 in the new M.A.N., and a few questions arise:

-Is there an upgrade deal from version 5.04?
-Will my existing SlimStick work with XTR2?
-I've just changed radios. Which of the three Airtronics connectors they list will work with an RD8000?

Their home site, reflex-sim.de, now says almost nothing about XTR, and since it's a holiday, MRC isn't answering the phone...

New home for Reflex in Germany:

http://www.simwerk.de/cms/index.php?...mid=55&lang=en

Very little is in English. Looks like they bought out the old maker of Reflex.

Thanks for the reply. The good news:

-No problem with the German site...ich kann Deutsch lesen.
-XTR2 is version 5.05 and the software upgrade from 5.04 is only 8.40 euro.

The bad news:

-They only deliver the software on disk, no downloads.
-Shipping from Germany is 29 euro.

So, guess I'll wait for MRC to figure out how to market what they're advertising...

Agreed about MRC (because I don't know better ), but...

it's still the old maker of Reflex, though not as active as before.

the software update alone (5.04 -> 5.05) is 20 Euro.

for a Sanwa SD series tx you need a special round 5 pin DIN plug lead (10 Euro).

software CD and lead in a letter cost 6 Euro postage.

Just try and shoot Mr. Küsel an e-mail ([email protected])!

Oops, my mistake...the 8.40 euro price was for the connector, not the disk. But the order page still gives 29 euro as the shipping charge. I'll drop Herr Küsel an email and see if I can arrange a download...I can make my own connector.

it is a a good product of Reflex
