Toronto Dealer that actually stocks JR


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Is there actually a Toronto Dealer that actually stocks JR kit rather than listing but only ordering from the distributor?

I'm looking at moving from DSMX to DMSS as my primary system, I'm liking the cost & capabilities of the DMSS system better than DSMX (and the fact I can just keep a DSM2 or DSMX module around for BNF stuff). But I'd really like to handle the XG6 and/or XG8 before deciding on what to buy. And I'd like to take advantage of JR Americas current 2 free receiver deal.

I currently have a DX5e and an XP8103 (the latter soon to have a DSMX module)

If you are willing to make the drive, Flite Craft in Kitchener usually has the XG6, XG8, XG14 and 28X in stock. The JR DMSS has a larger following in the KW area than I think most areas.

Re: Toronto Dealer that actually stocks JR

Then if you like what you see buy from them. Anyone that is retail and has stock deserves our business.

I'm a big proponent of buying local if possible.

Re: Toronto Dealer that actually stocks JR

Just give them a quick call before you leave to see if they have stock. They sometimes don't always have them all as they have sold the one they have and have to reorder. They get their shipments Thursday.

Re: Toronto Dealer that actually stocks JR

they usually have xg14 in stock. and im pretty sure they have some xg6 too, but if i were you i would go for the xg14. overall better build. but it seems like JR is slowly fading away. it is hard to find someone to help you to set up your JR radio, when i had my jr xg11mv, whenever i have a question, there are very limited information on the internet, i would have to call jr everytime.... after a while, i got sick of it and just moved away from JR. when i try to sell my jr radio, you really cant get rid of it unless you sell it dirt cheap. so the resell value is really bad. if you want to get one, please get one that you will keep, it is frustrating to sell them.

Have a look at Advance RC & Hobbies at Hwy 7 and Woodbine. They usually carry JR radios and receivers.
