          I'll sit back all smug like & play the sim on my new JR XG11 might not be as easy to set up on vbar etc but its no toytown radio it has 11 useable channels
          & I didnt need a phd in programing to sort it out just for the sim
          More popcorn anyone? oh & I'd get someone who knows what their doing
          to look at it rather than the bunch of dim wits at HH

                This sounds like a faulty switch, power connectuion, or battery connection.
                Can you reproduce it by shaking the transmitter, or wiggling the wire to the battery? Its worth trying to identify the issue before you send it back.
                The reboot of the tx must be a loss of power that comes back becuase the switch is still in the on position.

                I expect HH will swap the tx for a new one for you, even if they can't find the issue.

                    Difference is a bit more than that if you do a like for like comparison as some of the 8FG packages include servos etc.

                    Compare prices at Inwoods for example and for TX only you have the 8FG @ £220 and the 14SG @ £369

                      You are correct, thanks for putting me right Mark!

                      Still I had both, and the 14SG feels really nice.

                          I've tried shaking it while it is on, and cannot reproduce the problem, which makes me even more worried! I'll have a go at wiggling the power wire tonight when I get home. Either way, this seems to be a pretty bad issue with the DX7s if 3 of us on this forum have had the same fault.

                            DX7s switching off in flight?

                            How old is the battery and has it ever been taken out of the tx to charge?

                              The TX and battery are about 8 months old, and I've never removed the battery since installing it the day I received it. It is the stock battery that came with the TX.

                                Hi guys battery never taken out of tx to charge it has never done this before I have tried shaking the tx to replicate the issue but no joy. I will be sending back to HH and see what they say. I have however now lost some trust in the brand just glad it was not the 550.

                                Cheers
