Hi Alex,

I also need 2 of the parkflyer 6 channels (R616 or 606 i think) plus 2 R617's.

The problem is i cannot find a single place that has all the RX's i need in stock

6CH AS I understood, not produced any more, even 6ch radios supplied with 7ch receivers, those are avaliable.

You sure about this? According to my information, the R606FS is discontinued as is the R607FS and both have been replaced with newer models (R616FS and R617FS respectively).

Maybe double check with robbe...

Sorry my bad... its not the R616FS im talking about its the R616FFM:

This is the Futaba R616FFM 2.4GHz FASST 6-Channel Receiver. Brand New. Compatible with the following FASST transmitters; 6EX, 7C, and the following transmitter modules; TM7, TM8 (on 7 channel mode), TM10 (on 7 channel mode) and TM14 (on 7 channel mode).

Dimensions: 1.5 x 0.9 x 0.3" (38 x 22 x 7mm)
Weight: 0.22oz (6.3g) with case; 0.14oz (4.0g) without case

So i guess you might be right about the 7 gram 6 channel RX's not being made anymore... i wonder why...
