Hence what Trevor told me tonight the item is now priced to sell online.

Yet another case of us here in the UK having our trousers pulled down. I was waiting to see what the price was, now this has made up my mind. looks like It`s a grey import DSX9 from Hong Kong for me £395 + £30 P&P for system inc. servos, and it`s CE marked too. Bollox to `em !!!!

[Smoothound]

Still watching what is going to happen etc.. and prices....

Futaba 12FG 35mhz is still on the winning side of things for now.

Yeah but it's a Futaba with poxy programming and 35Mhz

[Smoothound]

I'll get one next year when it's old hat, DX7 is fine for now and I have a moduled 9X2 as well, so would just be a 'gotta have it' purchase.......and in this case I ain't gotta have it.

Same for me.

My moduled 9X2 works fine, bit untidy but I can live with it

Yes but you can be sure the UK spec ones will be plastered with JR McGreggor not JR Propo

[Sao]

So we just take the JR MAc stickers off our old 9x2's then :P

[Smoothound]

If you have old 9x2's of course

[raptorheli2]

just clocked the price on this one. bit of a mistake here JR. i was jr for 15 years but recently went to a 14mz because my faithfull 9x2 decided to pack up midflight one day and pile one of my synergys in. at the time i was fed up waiting on this radio so i took a punt on a shop soiled 14mz...i thought it was expensive but when i see the price of this i consider it cheap now. come on JR, this is a sub 500 quid radio complete with cheap servos.

cheers

So we wait til last and get fleeced yet again, really aint good enough.

[LipolyGone]

I guess JR must realy think were muppets
They have been selling this radio for a lot lower than that & now the good old Brits are again picking up the Tab for it.
Me I'm keeping my DX7 but may well think about moving over to Futaba in the light of this most recent extorsion attempt from JR

Damn, just sold my Futaba (FF7) and moved to Spektrum.

Note to self, keep up with developments.

It'll be interesting to see the price of the Futaba Equivalent when that comes out in May sometime. If it's cheaper I can see a lot of JR people jumping ship to Futaba, myself included.
Hmm or maybe not FF10 thing is about £530 with Rx and three £25 3152 servos. They can poke that to!
