So it's kind of what I was speculating a couple of years back then, with a few strange twists I'm struggling to get my head around.

I'm finding it odd they were advertising the RC4 hybrid as supporting all the new features, and now I think they are saying only the new RC4 transponders will do any of that.

The need for a new decoder or the new RC4 won't work seems a little like a slap in the face, talk about a forced upgrade to what could be many struggling RC clubs.

I struggled to get any information out of the Australian MyLaps rep, but to be fair I just don't think MyLaps passed on any information to them allowing them to answer any of the questions I had.

Kind of hoping they keep support their own old products though, my biggest worry is they would start to filter out their own old gear to force even more sales of the new gear.
