The 6102 really can't handle more than one flap very nicely. The 7202 program and DX7 is a lot nicer than the 6102 and far superior to the DX6.

Still, there is nothing like the 9303 for sailplanes

For those who like toys for the bad weather, check out the Blade CX2. It has Spread Spectrum RX instead of the old 4-in-1 unit.

If you really want to deal in speculation, check out

for your picture of the JR 12X which looks simlar to the 10X case with the 9303 display and cricket for the user interface. And the display has 3in1 12ch inbetween the japanese text.

Geez. You gotta learn to relax a little bit. This radio isn't advertised as a sailplane radio. Notice that it says its for helicopters and airplanes. Its a mistake to read too much into that. If you look at the JR line of radios you will clearly see that they know the difference between airplanes and sailplanes. Wait for the sailplane version and I think you will find it more to your liking. Of course you could by this on and live with a few limitations if you wanted to. I know a number of guys who 'saved money' by buying the 6102 to fly their sailplanes. Now they want to know how to make it do all those sailplane things.

I am heartened that their descriptions of its range capability includes unlimited sailplanes but I wouldn't take that to mean that this particular radio is targeted at that audience. I would take it to mean that they can release a sailplane version at some point. I'd be real surprised if an equivalent to the 9303 isn't in the works.
