POLL: 2.4gHz or still on 35mHz

[Tim Procter]

Very hot subject at the moment with the present problems.

Simple question "Are you happy with your present set-up"

[Richie b]

im happy with my DX7 havent had any issues with it or the RX's, only wiish that the cost of the RX's would come down a bit

[Boggy]

ive had one failure due to my rx pack losing a cell. im sure most of the problems are user related rather than 2.4 ghz issues. i for one am happy with it!

WOW Ron you know thats gonna cause a rift..

i for one am happy with it!

Quite happy with my DX7 and AR7000 set-up's too mate.

at the end of the day its new technology and its going to take some time for it to fully mature.

im not even gonna look at upgrading until my 9x2 dies.

Ade. Straight question, You are obviosly still on 35mHz and have already made your point.

Have you tried and used 2.4gHz and as an expert pilot what did you think to it, Other than your statement about new technology.

im happy with my old ff7. it does everything i want it to do and more. never had any glitchs or interference with it so i'll keep using it.

would like a dx7 but its just more cash i havnt got at the moment.

no im not tight and i dont squeek when i walk - im just skint at the moment - couldnt even afford a graphics card that i was watching on fleabay and it only sold for £23.

Mine has been very good to me but i accept that with several thousands of users out there in real world conditions,problems are likely to surface,whether its due to user error,poor power supply or suspect Rx`s.

i think we rely on so many pieces in the chain from fingertip to swashplate that any one of them is likely to fail,in my case its usually the fingertip

If I didn't fly a 450 size electric I'd still be on my 35mhz 7CAP. I had no issues with it on my .50 - but I had problems with my little electric.
I don't want to collect gear so sold all my 35mhz.

I can't help thinking that futaba have rushed a bit to get their FASST to market in the light of big sails of spectrum, and then JR working with spectrum.

If anyone is changing their AR7000, 6100 or 6200 to a new 9 channel becuase it has "fast start" - then I'm in the market for buying your old spectrum rx!

A also want to know if Aide has flown a DX7 ccpm heli and if he could feel any difference in the speed of response of the link. I'm guessing not.

[Jamez]

Sticking with 35 at the moment, will upgrade whe funds allow.

[Rotorhead]

I'm on a FF8 at the moment, its been reliable, if I can afford it though, I will get a 12FG 2.4, after its been out for a while though.

[Smoothound]

I've not voted as i'm using both currently for various reasons. Just swap the module and fly...

[gazza]

Never had a problem with 35Mhz so far & I don't get the opportunity to fly enough to warrant the change. And anyway the pegboard is empty now everyone's on spectrum

[TrexMADuk]

had loads of glitch problems on Trex450 tried everything in the book - swapped to 2.4ghz and not a problem since....now all my helis are 2.4ghz - Spektrums

i have a schulze rx in my honeybee. these rx's have served me well over the years.
