Wow, Thats a great price for that system. I would be all over that one if I hadn't just bought my 3pk last summer. Speaking of the 3PK, has anyone seen any good prices on the R603FS rx? Seems $90.00 is the norm.

These are different than 2.4 Fasst syatems. Anyone heard any feedback on there dependability on the water?

They have been using the same technology with this radio a while now.

Wonder how it compares to Fasst. Keep in mind it is not compatible with Fasst.

I wonder too. Why would Futaba have 2 different 2.4 systems??? I assume FASST is better since it costs more... Anyone have the tech on the two system differences?

I saw them at Hobby Town USA.

I think the 2.4ghz system the PL radios use only switch through a select few frequencies.. instead of the FASST systems constantly changing to different frequencies all the time. Could be wrong though.

I like the looks of the 4PL... wish it would work with FASST system.
