I heard today at a model shop that the main reason production of the T5 & T7 has stopped is that key component inside the transmitters has gone obsolete.

Hi Bob K

I heard the same from J Perkins when I called them recently.

End of an era!

Can I bump this back up. Looking at the Orange recievers:

I can't work out if any are Planet T5 compatible. Any experts out there?

Thanks

I had a feeling this was the case. Someone futher back mentioned they might be working on a Planet Compatable version but presumably not. :-(
