I swapped out the module in my 9xII (9303) with the Spektrum JR airmod the other night. I worked late and changed receivers in two of my helis and a foamy. Amazing, didn't even need to touch any model settings. After a few hours of sleep to turned up at the local field (with coffee) and proceeded to test each model.
Previously I had been plagued with glitch issue in my trex450, those days appear to be gone. I used the 6100 and while the range check didn't make the 30 paces, it flew fine without any issues.
I used an AR9000 in the trex600n without any issues.
In the foamy I used another 6100. The 6100 isn't a full-range RX, but I thought I would test its limits. I took the foamy up further that I could make out the orientation. As far as I could tell, I still maintained full control. I wouldn't run that test on a more expensive plane, but interesting none the less.
Interestingly, out of habit I still attempt to reach to extend the TX antenna each time I go out, and some times look down thinking I have forgotten something.
I don't think I will ever look back!! :D :D
