If you subscribe to the airtronics forum they will tell you that a 10 channel 2.4 radio with a lot of bells and whistles is due out FEb 2009 but this is not a replacement for the Stylus either. This 10 channel is supposed to have enough features for the masses, glider pilots uncluded. No one has definitively stated when the stylus will be replaced with a 2.4 model.
Look ont he bright side. As more and more users switch to the JR, Futaba and maybe extreme 2.4Ghz solutions, 72 MHZ gets less populated and the potential for conflicts may be reduced :) I am personally switching over next flying season myself. I would LOVE to stick with my stylus but my local flying flield is too close to another club so 2.4 is a must and soon.
