AR7200BX DISC.

Post by DOG »

Spektrum has done it again. Beside discontinued the DX8 now i found out that AR7200BX is also discontinued. What's going on Spektrum! Can this be verify by anyone else or am i just misunderstanding?

Yes! I just checked Horizon Hobby and they are showing "Discontinued" and "No longer available".

However, I also saw that they have an ar7300bx for sale. Perhaps the 7300 has some upgrades and is replacing the 7200. The ar7200bx use to be $149.00. I see that the 7300 is $179.99. I don't have any experience with the 7200, so I couldn't tell you what's new and different from the 7300....but at least there is still something available.

Probably a few new things like self level and/or governor. Maybe more tunability.

New metal case just like the brain. Lol

Dog you have to go with technology always changing. lol But still if it not broke don't fix it . I know that everytime we go flying your ar7200 always work perfect. I can't ever remember a time you ever had trouble with them.

+1 on Smoke. If it works, you can fly, why upgrade? why change whats working? why change what flys for you? why change for change sake?

I fly the same on my 450 after the 3GX and it was solid , flew the way it should:)
