RE: JR11x Inspiration for its design??
Yes.. not a bad alternative..
For the last month I have been watching the BSG DVD collection (all Series and Movies)
As soon as I saw the JR11X I showed it to my girl and said.. "What does that look like?"
She said "A cylon"
Which is exactly what I thought...
Especially the shape of the centre section and the Blue V shaped LED.. it looks just like the Cylon's head and V Shaped eye...
I like it.. it looks so radically different and cool!
Back to my humble DX6i.. that looks like....

this is the one I thought of - the helmet from "The Rocketeer"

I just watched the Promo Video on the JR Site..

The 11X was designed by a Japanese Art Student.... I'm sure he was "inspired"
