The m12s is a great radio. The m17 is prettier but that is about it vs an m12s. Speed may be faster but not sure anyone outside of 1/8 or 1/12 on-road will benefit. Off-road I didn’t see any difference between m12 and m12s. I can recommend the pgs coreless servo for carpet racing. Accurate and fast response with m12s. Not too expensive either.

Anyone know/seen if Sanwa is working on a PGS version of the SRG-H(R/S), with the M17 'code' support', in the mini/micro category?

Haven’t seen anything but that servo will still work with the M17 on SHR and SSR mode just not SUR

Has anyone seen any transmitter cases available for the M17? Or know of an existing case that will work?

AJ Lorello? We have a guy with that name in our club and he's not only smart, he's also very fast and extremely nice. Can't be you. ;-)

I have a HobbyKing Trackstar case for my M12S, you can see if the M17 fits that one next time I'm out (2 weeks).

Oh no... That's definitely a different guy!

I don't have the radio yet but looking to see if there were any cases available. You know... for my list to Santa...
