I have been flying electrics with my Spektrum system using CC Phoenix 10,
Thunderbird 9 and Thunderbird 18s with outrunner motors for a long time.
I've flown it to about 1000 ft. lots. I've never experienced any sensation
of a glitch. It's solid, in my opinion.

They had it at Lancaster Woody in August, and some of the pilots were too

Tom sent me a message stating IT WAS NOT THE SPEKTRUM RX that has

the reason i had posed the question is because i was thinking of using the
