I say:

Integy - In-Te-Gy
Losi - Loss-ee
Hudy - hoodie
Kyosho - Kye-oh-show (although I've been told its Key-oh -show)
Jaco - Jack-o
Li-po - Lie-Poh
Corally -Coral-lee (people round here say it Co-rally)

I'm in the UK BTW, in the midlands.

No, it's spelt Raymond Luxury Yatch but it's pronounced Throat Warbler Mangrove!

I always thought it was coral-lee because they had a chassis (chassee) material (mat ear ee ul) called coral (co rul). And its cyan (si ann) as in the color not the cayenne (ki ann) pepper for a foam tire.

I too, thought Jaco might be pronounced (Jack oh) because Jack runs the show over there. But everyone around here pronounces it (Jake oh).

So far everyone has said Integy is pronounced with a hard G and not a J. Are you guys spelling it out incorrectly or is it really pronounced with a gee and not a jee?

How did Kevin Orton pronounce it?

They are saying "gee" as in "gee whiz" and that is correct. The identical pronounciation would be as in "jeep".

I work at a hobby shop. It drives me bonkers when people come in looking for parts for their "Low-sigh" or their "Tuh-MAI-uh." You'd be surprised how many people have trouble with Futaba, too. I've heard things as far out as "Foo-tee-bah" "Fah-too-bah" and "Fah-whoo-bah." As for the Kyosho thing, if you spell it out phoenetically in Japanese, it ends up being 2 sounds: "kyo" (not kee-yo or kai-yo) and "sho" (as in what you watch on TV). Atsushi ends up being "a" (what you say when the doctor looks in your mouth) "tsu" (as in tsunami) "shi" (like your ladyfriend). I've also always unsterstood it to be "TEE-kin" as in "False Peakin' Tekin" for the first software release of the BC112A. As for Integy, I usually get lazy and say "Inna-G" (like Ali G's cousin ). And Lipo is lipo, as in liposuction
