Man, that is insanely cheap. Amazing.

You must be ready to come home as your posts are on the up

How many cars have you picked up since you've been away?

Yeh they are significantly cheaper but Futaba and Spektrum have invested significantly into the R+D of their 2.4G systems - so they charge more to pay for that development. Maybe these cheaper ones use a generic technology, or they may have "re-purposed" a patented technology.
