My turn to rant. I've been flying less than a year, and I've had three Spektrum receivers fail on me. I only bought one of these new, so I can't be sure what their history was. However, they worked perfectly and then just stopped without warning. One failure resulted in a fly away. The one I bought new didn't even get replaced under warranty. Horizon was such a pain in the ass to deal with that I finally just gave up. I know that's not everyone's story, but it sure is mine.
So now I'm faced with a decision to make. I don't feel comfortable trusting my more expensive helis and planes to Spektrum, so I am thinking of converting to Futaba. I don't think I will even consider JR since they are so close tip Spektrum. I'm open to suggestions, but who else is there other than Airtronics?
Edit By Tony: I have put this post back as there is nothing against the rules with it. This can be a great thread for someone else that is having issues with their Spektrum system.
