In case anyone missed it, there is a link on RCU with a photo of the new 14-channel Futaba radio
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/new_futaba_9zap_replacement/m_2199011/tm.htm No real word on release date, cost, or full features. Just speculation right now. Rumors I have heard say full 14-channel 2048 PCM, total mix control (any channel to any channel), total independent switch assignment (functions too, put rudder on a switch if you want to!!), synthesized RF deck, full digital trims, and three-aircraft type programming. Oh, and a color BIG screen !! I can remember working at Pro-Line in 1975 when a 7-channel radio with 1 dual rate and no servo reversing cost $750.00!! That's close to $3K in 2004 dollars!! Amazing stuff. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bill Malvey RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
