Default Futaba or KO Propo transmitter?

Need a little input on a purchase I'm about to make.

I was all set to buy a 4PK, but I've been reading about the issues they've been having. I think the overheating on the RX's was taken care of with the 604, but I've been seeing some TX display, and crappy customer service related issues. With the display, are the older ones the problem, or do the ones made recently still have the issue?

I'm a Futaba guy from way back, but there was a 20 year gap where I was out of RC, so things could have changed greatly since then. I was looking at the latest issue of RCCA, and saw the ad for the KO Propo EX10 Eurus. What's the general consensus of KO Propo vs. Futaba? Is the response time of the FASST 2.4 GHz, really that much better than the other brands?

I know the Eurus isn't out yet, so I likely won't get any 4PK vs. EX10 direct comparisons, but what about the KO brand in general?

Thanks....
