<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for clearing this up Troy. I was
concerned about buying the 945's if the "latest & greatest" was right around
the corner. Will now go forth & infuse the economy.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Steve , et all</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The new JR 9Channel radio being released by
Horizon Hobby is not the current 9X that is being sold overseas.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There have been extensive changes to the
programming to improve it over the 9X and serve USA market better. A word of
caution for those really anxious to get a 9X....the 9X is not a product
supported by Horizon. They don't carry them and can't repair them. They don't
have tech support for the system as the programming is different from the US
version of the 9channel system. My personal suggestion to all is be patient
and it will be here.....As with all JR products I'm sure they are breaking
ground and setting the bar even higher for the other radio
manufacturers.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>While I don't have specific info on the new
9Channel radio I do know that the R1000 RX is the non U.S. version of the 945
and 955 Rx's sold by JR/Horizon in the USA already. They are not the same RX
as the 649 in a different package. I have been running these RX's extensively
for the last few years and they are great. I have not had any issues in the
hundreds and hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of flights I have put on
them. Another really good RX is the new 770 PCM while only a 7channel it meets
the needs of the pattern flyer very well and is light. My experience with this
RX is its just as rock solid as the 945 and 955's I have flown. I personally
don't know anything about the R900 (or a 9Ch PCM RX)...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>From the info that we (Team JR) have gotten
the new 9Ch is coming and has extensive advancements over them 9X being sold
elsewhere. But that is about it. I know that they are testing and getting all
the P's and Q's handled with the system before its released. No company wants
to release a product that is not ready for Prime time. JR quality is a very
high standard and Horizon maintains this as you all know. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Horizon has gotten a little bit of bad rap on the
Internet about not bringing in the product...but in reality they have made
changes and improvements to serve our needs better. This is good...they want a
new system that really stands out from the competition and exceeds our
expectations. In the years I have been involved with JR I have never
heard an Ill word regarding Horizons support of the modeler. While we would
all like to have the latest and greatest little toy, it's great that Horizon
stepped up and made changes that were needed in the product to serve our needs
better. I'm a techno junkie too and want to get a new radio to play with
also.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm not sure but I feel there will be some
detailed data on the 9Channel system coming soon. I know that people are
chomping at the bit for new radio. This speaks to the quality and the desire
for JR products here in the USA. As you all know I'm an avid JR user and
Team member. I truly feel they have the best, it is really nice to be
associated with a company that gives the service and customer support
like Horizon does.. It great when you can talk about a product and have a
smile on your face. I'm positive that we are all going to be very happy when
the product hits the market. Horizon just wants to make sure that things are
right and it meets our needs. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As soon as I get some info I will pass it along
to you guys....as of right now I only know its coming nothing
more.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Patience and I will help you guys out when I get
the info. I promise</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I see the JR 9X radio is finally making its
debut here in the states. It comes with the new "R900S Spcm 9ch GOLD PIN"
receiver. There is also a new 8ch Spcm & the "R1000DS Spcm
10ch <BR>Dual conversion". </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does anyone have any info on the 9ch & 10ch
receivers? I'm curious as to whether there are any improvements or if
they're just <EM>repackaged/renamed </EM>R649 & R945 receivers. I
was ready to buy a pair of 945's but will hold off till I learn
more.</FONT></DIV>
