my buddy's KO is backlit, along with my Z-1. i dont think they were never not backlit.

a radio that is light is better than holding a "brick" of a radio for +5mins. go for the radio that feels best to you, not joe-jim, with monstorous arms that can hold a M11 for 20 mins.

Maybe my friends were just burned out right out of the box???

I went from an M8 to an M11 to the Z-1. I'm not looking back.

So far, I'm gonna decide on either the JR Z-1, Helios w/ spectrum system or a 3pks. I have a LONG time to decide. Maybe I can ask if I can try out what the radio's feel like the next time i visit my LHS.

KO is responsible for the design of the JR radios electronics. A ko with the drop down adapter and spectrum module is what I'm headed for!

I am stuck on the KO and have never thought of anything other than Spektrum since it inception.

KO is a great radio and it is really what you feel is good for your budget and your driving comfort.

My birthday and christmas came early! I went to the hobby shop with my aunt and grandma and they insisted on paying the $250 difference for me as my birthday and christmas gift. I'm very happy with how the EX-10 feels. Now I need to set it up for my car.
