Hasn't been released yet. About time really, IMO Hitec is the best bang for your buc company out there. Just bought a 10C and I'm wishing they made the announcement a few months ago.

Yeee Haaa!!! Finally, my long wait is coming to an end. I have been waiting for this for a long time. I have two Optic 6 radios and love them both. I will have to see if the Hitec will allow 2.4 and 72mhz with this one radio as I want to convert slowly and not all at once. I have to many 72 mhz rxs' to do it all at once.
I will have to do some investigating now. Love that Hitec equipment!!:D

cheers

I just noticed that it does support the Spectra modules so 72 mhz will also be possible with ths TX. Oh, I'm starting to salivate, my mouth is leaking now:yeah:

I couldn't wait, either.
I went here and picked up the 2.4 (Futaba) converter module and have been slowly converting all my $35 dollar digital receivers with $28 2.4ghz modules. I just plug the old 72mhz module back in for the older receivers.

Hmmmm . . . wonder how this new 2.4GHz tech will cross over into the Multiplex Tx line . . . . ? Multiplex has been promising 2.4 for ages.

Not that looks are important, but that is one of the ugliest radios ever made :P It reminds me of the OLD OLD style transmitters, it certainly doesn't have the ergonomic look that the JR or Futaba ones do, I think it would look much better if they ditch the red gimbals :P

Re: Hitec 2.4gig.... when did this happen
 

Haha, well there ya go, I personally think it looks pretty cool, I know a few others that think the same. Just goes to show opinions are like a$$holes everyone has one, lol. But your right, looks do not count, the product has to deliver.

Re: Hitec 2.4gig.... when did this happen
 

I had to go do a flash card test of the Futaba 10CAP Fasst, the JR X9303 and the Hitec Aurora, and, correct me if I am wrong, but I really don't see a whole hell of a lot of differance between them looks wise. They all have their good points and bad points in the style contest. You have to admit that the touch screen part of the technology is way cooler than the others.:cheers:

Check on the Multiplex German web site and look at the new multiplex catalogue.
The 2.4 stuff is listed.
