<DIV> The 770 is a real breakthru receiver. What's it weigh a 1/2 oz.? It comes with the new JR 6102 radio PCM for $269 and I can tell you that it's a fantastic radio that is plenty good for pattern. Mike</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dave, and Doug responded. I flew most of the 2003 season with the R770 in my ZN Hydeaway. This was the RX I flew at the NATS in F3A. I don't feel anything was given up from the 649 9ch save the 2 channels. My experience is the 770 performs as well as my 955 and 945 10ch Ra's</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In short its a great RX....Not only that it has a very nice price tag with it too. My opinion as stated in another thread is that a pattern model by its very nature of fine tuned, trimmed, performance needs to run PCM for the protection and solid connection it provides.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Has anyone had any experience with this new receiver? I bought a pair of these but I'm having second thoughts due to the small size as compared to the JR 9 and 10 channel PCM receivers. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What was sacrificed to achieve the small footprint & what is the advantage of the 9 and 10 channel receivers (other than the extra channels)? In a nut shell, would you trust a ZN or PL plane to the R770S? </FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE><p>
