repairs

Hey guys, is there a authorized Airtronics repair depot in Canada. Paul

[AJCoholic]

No there isnt I am afraid. BUT, you can ship the radio to the Airtronics head office in the USA (see the Airtronics web site to get the address) and they are pretty quick. I sent one of my radios to get fixed and cleaned back last August, and just sent one of my Infinity tranny's in Dec. to get the lithium battery replaced and the radio checked over before I put it for sale. They are fast, and fairly cheap.

Paul,

The main reason I continue to fly Airtronics is the repair/warranty service that they provide. In a few instances, rather than repairing old equipment for me, they simply substitued new stuff at a fraction of the price it would have been to buy it! Try the US site, you likely won't be dissapointed.

My sentiments exactly. 8) :lol:

[Frank Klenk]

An RD 8000? Sounds like a rc car or something eh?
Go with the JR ... :TU: :TU:
Frank :lol: :lol: :lol:

[AJCoholic]

Frank (an the rest of you guys...) now I own a JR so I cant slag them, darn it! BUT, I also have owned 9 or so Airtronics systems and the RD8000 is the new 8 channel coming out this year, a pretty awesome radio programming wise. I bet it will keep up to your 8103 and probably easier to program ;)

They're all good radios, my friends, just as long as they are flying planes!

Seriously though, I have had three experiences with the Airtronics service inthe US, all good. They care about you and your gear!

You've gone thru 9 of them and you call them "GOOD"?!? :shock:

:wink: :lol:

Jim,
I didnt "go" through nine, I used them all! The only airtronics radio I had a problem with was one I bought used that had a piece broken on one stick - sent it away to get fixed and checked over. I also just sent one of my 660's to get the lithium battery replaced before I sold it to a kid in my club.

I have owned and used at the same time 3 660's, 1 600A, 1 1000H, and one vanguard VG4 and one Quasar. Never had ANY problem with them, ever!

I also have owned an older airtonics AM 4 channel, and a 6 channel VG6DR and another VG4R 4 channel that I sold a few years ago. I guess that makes 10!

After I bought my PCM10X, I sold all my tranny's but the Infinity 10 channel and saving the 600A also, it was a gift from Dad. :)

So you see I am a good Airtronics test bed! HA!

SAAaaaaaaaaaaay.........are you hoodlums picking on Andrew ??????

:wink:

[AJCoholic]

Ahh Nony, you know they are! Thats OK, I can handle it HA! :)

Jim, I know you were just bugging me. But, I just wanted to express my good luck with Airtronics over the past umber of years.

BUT... what they REALLY need is a new 10 channel rig to compete with the 10X. I would have boughgt one, thats for sure. But, 8 channels on the stylus isnt enough for some scale and jets models...

Hey Kevin, go to the electronics forum, see my posting.., I DID buy a JR 10X just before Christmas... :):) gotta' admit I am very happy with it so far!

[KevinPerry]

Hey...glad to see your enjoying the new radio :!: Wait to you actually start usin some of many great programs in it. I sure like mine :!: IMO ..... the best radio on the market bar none .

[JimMcIntyre]

The best english speaking radio. :roll:


After playing with a Graupner Profi MC-24 at the World's, I'd gladly trade my PCM10 for one of these on a canadian freq with english menus (not available :( ):

next best to this (in my books) would be the Multiplex MC4000

Randy,

Forget the 10 CH Airtronics... how about something for the everyday user like get rid of 6 CH and have medium cost 7 or 8 Ch for us Scaleguys that don't have shares in Microsoft! :P :P :P
