JR Radio Equipment from Probuild!!!!!!

[robgt]

I guess the clarification needed from probuild is to contradict this statement:

The other possibility is that Probuild may grey import DSM-J sets. DSM-J is a frequency hopping version of DSM that is intended for the Japanese market only. DSM-J is not compatible with either JR/MacGregor DSM-2 or Spektrum DSM-2 products. Current DSM users would need to replace all their DSM-2 receivers to use a DSM-J transmitter.

Is it a grey import?

Also, if Probuild are offering the DSX transmitters that do NOT require a change of receiver from those people are already using, then something is getting fudged in the facts here?

I think grey imports are bad for UK business, personally.
I'm not suggesting this is or is not being grey imported - just that if it is, it shouldn't be.
Just my opinion

Bah I just bought a second hand DSX9 in the end, £400 from BMFA... I only paid £399 for the TX only, brand new from Inwood last year

Have a look at the updated prices on JR stuff on inwoods website. The DSX9 and 12 have dropped in price. Hmmmm... tempting.

I have just seen inwoods new price on JR.
Does this mean that the price will drop at the other suppliers.
Very tempted

Going back a few years all transmitters use to have serial numbers on them so that you could track them from manufacture to the point of sale . I've noticed alot of the newer radio sets dont have these now- certainly with my Spektrum DX7 and my newly purchased DSX9 I cant see these (unless they are inside the casing).

The Futaba ones still do Both a futaba and a Ripmax serial number.
