thanks guys , i would buy the DX8 AT $399 , But i think that price was TX only , and thats the price at Modelflight also /or $499 for kit .
the DX7s is $349 for KIT . I was amazed to see a lot of youtube clips regarding glitches and recall's mainly with the DX6i and some with DX8 , especially with certain date/manufactured models .
which led me to DSMX- versus DSM2 . dsm2 has been troublesome apparantly , and the lates DSMX versions of DX7s, and DX8 Seem to be much improved as far as brown out voltages are concerned ,and reconnections of less than a second where as my DX6i dsm2 took 5 seconds to reconnect under testing at home .
MY DX6i , which i bought 2ND HAND was/is less than 1 year old and is back at OMP for testing as i have lost 2 models and had 3 crashes due to glitches /signal losses , a very costly experience , and i am dissapointed i have lost models $$$$ , time and now a TRANSMITTER AS WELL . Finding out of a HISTORY of faults with the DX6i and owning one . has left me red faced .
i can only recommend BUYING NEW RADIOS NOW , and hope the failure rate is RARE , as i cant continue losses as such .
THATS WHY im concerned and asking for advice .

i think a new DX7s from what i read is an improved radio for SPECTRUM , as is the NEW DX8 , after earlier recalls regarding DSM2-DSMX , from what i gather . DX6i i'm not sure about anymore , and am a little hesitant with this . i never had a glitch of crash due to any fault with my 36 meg crystal radio and used to fly almost out of sight . to have 3 failures at close range 15 years later with better technology ANNOYS ME . RANT OFF .
ANY advice APPRECIATEED . THANKS GUYS . hope that explains my concern .
