RE: New Hitec Aurora 9-Channel 2.4Ghz Radio System
After reading a couple pages of this tread I understood that some people already received and successfully using Aurora 9. Could one of the lucky owners let me know if it’s possible to bind 2 receivers and use them in the same time? I would like to have 2 receivers setup for my 40% and I am not sure if I should get this transmitter (I am still using 9CAPs) Thank you in advance.

Good for you and the hobby shop for the hard earned sale. This hobby offers a unique interaction between users and suppliers. I think it was great of Common Sense RC to take care of you and it's good to konw that Hitec is in the background on all of this too. I used to fly line control as a kid out on the the West Mesa, past Petro glyph park, about 25 years ago... I miss the scenery of Alb. and it sounds like this A9 went to a good home. Though I've been crying and venting about deliveries out here, I am actually OK to continue to sit tight like all the rest who don't have them. I'm just overly anxious like every new toy. I'll look forward to hear your reports of the A9 handling the 5K altitude. . Mike - are you going to be at the Toledo show this year? Will the Hitec booth be selling anything or is it all promo?</span></div> Good luck on getting your toy - btw, I do like your timer! :) Small world... PWRDrill |

One additional question; when bounded to two receivers in the Normal mode only, receivers suppose to reports voltage back to the transmitter. What voltage you are going to see, is it a way to switch between receivers for information? |

Thanks Pwrdrill...
Your a long way from Almont, MI...Don't let the rattlersget you & get that profile filled out with a couple pics from Alb., too, I do miss the mountains and view! Very small world, indeed...http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/js/f...eeth_smile.gif Seeing as your radio hit shipping today before anyone's at Tower, you'll have to unpack and get your radio out to thefield to let us all know how it works out! |

RE: New Hitec Aurora 9-Channel 2.4Ghz Radio System
Phil,
Sounds good to me! A few guys that I know and myself used to fly at an old airfield in Salem, but now I'm only flying in Milan. It looks like I should get one, PWRDrill placed his order after mine and he got the last one !! :D I received my 9 channel receivers from Tower today, now I just need a radio. I like the Rx's, no cutting of the tabs, they are universal. Andy |
RE: New Hitec Aurora 9-Channel 2.4Ghz Radio System
No such luck for me. My A9 +7ch was ordered on Dec 31st. They shipped all they had [&o]

RE: New Hitec Aurora 9-Channel 2.4Ghz Radio System
I paid the extra and got mine through Common sense RC. I have a January back order so mine won't be until Mid March from Tower. I just checked my order @ Common Sense and it says shipped !!
I should have it Friday!! :D Andy |

RE: New Hitec Aurora 9-Channel 2.4Ghz Radio System
Some pages below, Mike posted a youtube link to RCModelReview - but only part 3. I watched the other parts an have a question about the Optima 7 RX. It´s said the RX operates only down to 3,5volts. Do you use two batteries to have a secure system? Is it possible to use two different batteries at the same time? How about the visual RX battery voltage on the TX screen. Would it display both batterie voltages at the RX´s that have the back channel function?

I ordered one with 7ch rx on Dec 13 and it's still on backorder. Looks like I might have missed the cut.

RE: New Hitec Aurora 9-Channel 2.4Ghz Radio System
ORIGINAL: Alex7403 Consumers protest, not buying, not buying, not buying. Never had a hitec before only futaba's, as I noticed the hitec systems were cheaper then the rest, dont know about reliability. You are all forgetting very important point and that is the price of the receivers. while the Tx is one time investment and its painful only once the Rx is painful point every time I think of getting a new airplane. I got Futaba 2.4 6EX and now its $100 for a receiver, I have three 72 MHz receivers and I'm not buying anything until that price will go way down. Please look at it as a bundle Tx, Sx's, Rx's, wires, switches. Alex I was pained to discover the cost of the receivers, but then quickly found great deals on eBay for new in box receivers for my RDS 8000 (Receiver 92824). Instead of paying $90-$100 at Tower or wherever, I find them readily available from reputable merchants on ebay for $60-65! Many of those merchants are also selling Futabu 2.4Ghz receivers as well, so make sure you check them out. I've now got three receivers for my radio and I should be set for this year, anyway! To me, the benefits of 2.4Ghz systems far outweigh the cost, as compared to 72Mhz systems. I still have one 72Mhz Airtronics system for my trainer (used for club instruction), but eventually I will buy another 92824 for that plane as well. I'll be really curious to look at this new Hitec Aurora package once it is readily available. I could never "stomach" the cost of "Futaba", so I will certainly look at the economics of the Hitec system as well as the feedback from early users. -Mike <br type="_moz" /> |
