Will Futaba ever make lipo ready receivers? Seems like all the other guys do.

I hate having to run a regulator with my lipo rx packs.

That's the reason I went to a KO Propo system. I can run LiPo with a digital servo and not have the Rx thermal or go into failsafe. The last time I ran my Futaba, the Rx flaked out and the truck went off the end of the straight at speed and almost hit a marshal (it happened at least twice per race day over the last few months, this was just the worst occurrence). I can't have that kind of stuff going on. Futaba tech support was trying to blame it on my ESC, so I changed that out with no results.

I ran yesterday in 90*+ heat with the same setup (LiPo and digital servo) with my new KO Propo system and did not have one issue. Phooey on Futaba.

LiFe is today/future
