AR7200BX Discontinued?


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Does anyone know if the AR7200BX was discontinued? If it was what is it being replaced with? I checked Horizon Hobbies website and it is no longer listed, it is on the spektrumrc.com website... I have 3 heli's using this receiver, love it, was hoping it would be around for a while...

The AR7300BX is listed, however the size is a bit big for my smaller heli's so am hoping they will replace the 7200. Otherwise guess will just need to use microbeasts...

Re: AR7200BX Discontinued?

Its still listed on Hobbyhobby's site, marked down quite a bit, so maybe its on its way out? Maybe time to stock up?

Re: AR7200BX Discontinued?

I was thinking the same thing, if I had the money to do so. I have a 180CFX and the AR6335 in it behaves a lot like an AR7200BX. I bet they are replacing the AR7200BX with a boxed version of the AR6335, they probably don't want to pay beastx anymore...

However for my bigger heli's I would much prefer an AR7200BX, wouldn't trust the AS3X system yet...

Hey Tom , I have a V-bar , a Beast X and a Skookum 540. I like them all but the Skookum was the easiest to setup it's in my Rush 750 awesome.

Re: AR7200BX Discontinued?

I have all beastx, very familiar with them so I don't really want to change...
