Per the request of JR representatives, I have been politely asked to remove this post outlining the facts of their new release... the 12X. Since removing posts are not allowed on this site, editing my original post is the best I can do to meet their requests.
On a personal note, I will maintain that from all the research that I have done on my own (reading the available manual thoroughly), IMHO I feel that the 12X is a TX geared for the advanced giant scale plane and jet pilots who wish to fly the best feeling and performing TX on the market and utilizing all the new software features offered in this radio. However, for heli pilots (even the best in the world i.e. Szabo, etc who are still flying DX7's), I do not feel that the software improvements nor the 12 channels offered, will be necessary for any heli pilot of any level.
For the price, I personally will be moving up from my current 9303 PCM to the X9303 2.4. Due to the lower number of channels, the X9303 will have a faster data transmission than the 12X, which will IMO plays a bigger role than 12 channels. The 9303 will continue to have the fastest processor and the ease of programming which we come to find in JR radios. I will be saving my extra $800+ and putting that into more heli's or fuel to fly.
I hope that this RE-post has satisfied the JR representatives and helped guide JR users (or potentially new JR users) in finding what TX best fits their needs for the money.
