Futaba 7PX $699 or $599?

I believe the going rate for a 7px is 699, but they have it on their site for 599. Tower just has it for 699 while Amain shows two, one at 699 and one at 599. There is not a 100 dollar difference in receiver options so what's the deal. Is Futaba just cutting price down or is the 599 offering a diluted model?

I’d be interested is what you are running that needs 5 channels.

I think it has more to reason that Futaba wasn’t carried by tower or Amain for awhile and may have had stock off shore and when what seemed to be a mini trade war ended they got all there stock back. So they may have some old stock that got recertified fcc and new stock that has new firmware and current fcc.

Doesn’t one come with one Rx and the other three?

Futaba prices are about 20-40% higher if you buy from USA distributors. The going price for a Futaba 7px with one receiver is $700 and of course plus tax in your buying it in a actual store. But a 7px with 2 receivers can be has for about $560 shipped or about $500 shipped for one receiver if bought from distributors in Asia like rcmart and many more. The biggest difference is in the Futaba servo prices. It’s almost double the price if bought from USA distributors.

i have only notice this price difference with Futaba products.

Why not have asked in its own thread?
