Sounds like X6R and X8R are pretty much the same then? Why would somebody get the X8R? Just for more channels or?
- Ha! I have 3 x V911s and a Nano QX (awesome) for office play and sim training.
- On the FAA, they only have something like 140 field inspectors, which I am sure have their hands full with commercial airlines and all of the daily civil aviation incidents. So, unless they restructure, or adopt new technology for parsing information from other government agencies, I think that the average guy using FPV goggles at his local park in a responsible manner doesn't have much to fear from the latest interpretation, which by the way, hasn't been accepted by the AMA (community based organization).
- The aluminum case is junk and only is a collector's item at this point. I carry my two X9Ds in either the same case as the MR or in my tool carrier.
- I run X6Rs on all of my ships. Slightly less expensive, smaller, come with both antennas, have a Smart Port, and support the same amount of PPM/S-Bus channels.
