no flying today

[Phaedrus]

I’m impressed. You are one of very few people that discovered the practical benefits of an Airtronics 10 channel transmitter. Easy programming, everything is assignable, and super low latency. I have two for those reasons. Mention their name in the multirotor world and most people would say “who?”. Glider flyers kept them in business during the “radio wars” of the late ‘90’s.

I cannot recall the last time I saw an Airtronics radio in the wild. They ruled the glider world for a long time but now Spektrum/Futaba/JR with a smattering of Jeti are what I see at most soaring contests.

At the quad races we have at our field, where we sometimes get 70+ pilots, I see lots of Futaba and Spektrum, very little of anything else.
