Well, as I mentioned above, I told myself to come back to the hobby with an open mind... I’ve got a hurricane to deal with first (yep, I’m in Florida - although it’s aiming for well North of me ATM), so I will be seriously considering the DX6R.... I mean, heck - if it gives me a hard time, I can always sell it for whatever I can get and just get myself the Futaba like I was originally planning. 😛
First, used to live in Port St. Lucie and went through 2 hurricanes in a week back in '04, so I know the anxiety around the hurricanes, most scared I have ever been..... so be safe.
Second, glad that you come into it with an open mind, you need to with all r/c products now a days. But chances of issues are there with any product, would be lying to say otherwise. 6R got a bad reputation from the early issues... they desired it - there were issues. But we have fixed them. Its a great working radio, it has the ability to do more than any surface radio on the market. Does that mean there are "limits" - sure, but they are not as limiting as some make them out to be. I touch many different versions of radios throughout a day/week, but going back to the 6R is always a pleasure. Its the best... until I make something better!!! haha!
