Prolines were build in Athens, Alabama and was built from precision lab quality electronics and Ron Chidgney's stick assembly. The control sticks from the Proline Competition transmitters still have not been equaled.
I worked for Pro-Line after they moved to Phoenix and just after Jim sold the company. I built those sticks. Each and every one was hand made and tweaked. They were a nightmare to make but were pure silk once they were done!!
I still see no need for Dial-A-Crash.
Bad name that really does not apply any longer. I really know of no instances of this. I am sure they have happened, but I know that fixed channel shoot downs are a far more common occurrence. We had a guy buy a used radio and it took him a few months to figure out it was on 50 and NOT 37 like he thought. Meanwhile we had several unexplained shoot downs on 50!!
I happen to love the ability to change channels. I fly at VERY crowded sites in a VERY crowded ares (SOCAL) It is great to be able to pick an open channel and not have to worry about waiting for the pin. Plus at contests I will use an open channel, or the one with the fewest conflicts. Good stuff!!
