I have no choice but to move on. I love the KoPropo radio's, but cant see buying the KIY for 550+ USD. There are sooo many options out there now, and cost to me is a factor. I will be getting the 4PL within the next month. It does everything I need to do and the price is right. As far as latency issues with the flysky radios. Im sorry, but you can overcome that stuff if you can drive. I drive peoples cars and trucks all the time, and I always put down better lap times than they do. Do they get mad, no, they just see there is potential and realize its not the car, but their own hesitations and mistakes.
btw, im not braggin, just been doing this long enough to know what I am talking about.
+1 I really need to save up for a 4pl. My flysky works great for racing. sure the reaction time could be better but i can't remember the last time i wasn't in the a-main with it. The latency is hardly an issue, almost all driver, you can easily adapt your driving to it. If the reaction time is.001 off of a higher end radio it's not that big of a deal.
