Futaba 2.4GHz Confusion??

[EdgeCrusher]

Hey guys.

well i wanted to switch over to the 2.4ghz for my 9C but i found my first delima that the R607 didn't come with a dedicated battery plug/ which would use a channel so i would have to use a R608FS for sure with the GV1/611 on a nitro. Unless you can apply power to a receiver without using a dedicated port (No Idea) Also i hear that the Module Based Futaba Spektrum is slower than the 9303 can anyone fill me in on that little detail please.


So what do you guys think is the best bet about getting over 2.4ghz. I really don't want to Purchase a new radio i do enjoy my 9C but it seems futaba is way behind on what i believe to be new day age standard for RC.


Thanks

You can use any unused channel or use a Y connector in any of the channels for power.

You have a 9C and that is a good radio, if you don't want to purchase a new radio, I will suggest waiting for the FASST 8 channel module.

Yesterday I saw this guy flying a T-Rex hard 3D with a 9C, he did not seem to have any issues. :)

I hope this info is helpful,
