| This is a note from Horizon
As you know Horizon has always focused itself in serving our customers as best as we possibly can. This is done in many ways. The obvious would be the Team's support in the field, Customer service here at Horizon, Product support both internally and externally, and perhaps a less obvious but an important form of serving, would be to listen to our customers needs. Products like the Blade CX, 8711 servo, 9303, many of the Hobbyzone products, EFL products are all a direct response to listening to what our customers need to have a good experience with this great hobby.
In the interest of listening to our customers, and due to the almost overwhelming feedback we've received, Spektrum has decided to release modules for most of the popular JR and Futaba module radio systems. I know almost all of you have asked at one point or another when Horizon was going to produce DSM modules - so I thank you and hope our response is affirmation we do listen to our customers. So it's great news again, the Spektrum Team has done it again and produced a plug-and-play module system that will plug right into your 10X, 10sx, in fact all the 10 series, plus the 8103, and 9303 systems. Although these modules will plug into your 10ch systems, there are only 9 PPM output channels available which limits us to only 9 channels in the receiver. In the case of all Futaba module based radios- the PPM output is limited to 8 channels, this includes the 14 and 12mz systems..
Up to now, there have been questions about the speed of an aircraft module system and we are happy to report that the system will be slightly faster than you current system in PCM mode. It will however, be slightly slower than the DX7 and future ground up systems. Backward receiver compatibility is an extremely high priority for the Spektrum team and our customers, but unfortunately, the module interface does not afford us with a way to support the DSM1 AR6000 parkflyer receiver. The module will be compatible with the AR9000, AR7000, and the AR6100 receiver as well as all upcoming DSM2 receivers.
