The 9303 is the best buy for a real sailplane radio today. 9 channels and 30 model memories on board. It has programmable sliders on both sides and in sailplane mode offeres 6 Flight Modes. A Flight mode is for specific settings like launch, speed, thermal or land. Use these flight modes to customize the set up for each task by adjusting mix ratios, expo, dual rate and switch assignments and pre-sets.. The radio is easy to program and that large display with rotary "barrel" make adjustments fast and precise.

I could list all the features of the XP9303 but let me just say that if your current sailplane radio does "almost" what you want then seriously look at the XP9303. It will support a full house 6 servo ship with just the 9303's basic mixes and then you still have 6 more open mixers to freely assign including 2 multi point mixers!

Why buy from F3X? Well we are sailplane guys and not only can I match anyone's price but I can offer set up help and I stock the accessories that you want. I can even load in a base set up if you like. Very soon the XP9303 will be have a PC link so programs can be saved on the computer and e-mailed and F3X will have a page for our customers to download F3J, TD, F3F & F3B set ups

BTW. All XP9303 have programs for Heli, Air & Sailplane included.

I stock the Sailplane version which includes the R770 7 ch PCM mini rx that will fit in our skinny fuses and 3 of the best digital servos made for sailplanes the JR DS 368. The set also includes a wall wart charger, switch harness, rx battery and manual.

I can also sell you just the TX alone or what ever way you want it. Call me. 949-645-7032

F3X also stocks the trainer/transfer cord to share set ups between transmitters, the JR approved rubber ducky antenna and the DSC cable to tweak your sailplane by wire without sending the RF signal.

Hey don't forget we can add or swap servos so you get what you need. I stock JR DS 368, DS 3421 & DS168 servos. If you want a cheap, plastic geared analog flap servo for your F3X ship then shop somewhere else!
