[RCSE] RE: [RCSE] "For Those of You Who are JR 2.4 Challenged :) and a Question...or Two"

I agree, I think XPS is at a crossroad as a company.  The company needs to
decide if they want to be a player in this space or continue down the path
of poor customer service (and you know the result).  Rumors have them being
purchased by a larger company...Rumor also has it that they are changing
their design and will begin to offer diversity antennas to help with some of
the reception issues.   Oh well, only time will tell..

I think XPS is not long for the 2.4 world.  Anyone that has seen the
companies promises vs delivery claims will understand. 

 

I think out of all of the new systems Spektrum has the best support, and
that means a lot as we are finding that all of the systems have a problem of
sorts.

I actually tried the XPS system in my 2.4 friendly Supra and had some
problems. The receiver was placed between the ballast tube and servos. It
was going into failsafe at about 100 yards or a little more when I was going
away. Maybe I should have tried putting the receiver in the nose.

I actually tried the XPS system in my 2.4 friendly Supra and had some problems. 
The receiver was placed between the ballast tube and servos. It was going into 
failsafe at about 100 yards or a little more when I was going away. Maybe I 
should have tried putting the receiver in the nose.

I happen to know that today an Xtreme system was plopped willy nilly into the 
nose of a 2.4 Friendly Supra, range tested and flown with no 'apparent' holds 
or slow downs.

It even flew better when the pilot remembered to put the Xtreme Stylus Module 
in the TX!

Okay so I should have wrote that differently but by adding that the Stylus did 
have the conversion module in it after the note about the RX being in the nose 
made it more fun!

So having done both in the correct order, with out any 'apparent' issues, how 
comfortable will you be that all is well and right?

Just wondering?

 Here's a hint...Paul Bunyon didn't have one - but was one --- and those three 
don't. :-)

I happen to know that today an Xtreme system was plopped willy nilly into  
the nose of a 2.4 Friendly Supra, range tested and flown with no 'apparent'  
holds or slow downs.
 
It even flew better when the pilot remembered to put the Xtreme Stylus  
Module in the TX!
 
Okay so I should have wrote that differently but by adding that the  Stylus 
did have the conversion module in it after the note about the RX being in  the 
nose made it more fun!
 
So having done both in the correct order, with out any 'apparent' issues,  
how comfortable will you be that all is well and right?
