Tower Hobbies 224 Radio System
Tower Hobbies have released the 224, a 2-Channel 2.4GHz Radio System, which they claim is the most dependable surface system ever. Through the use of Spread Spectrum technology, this entry level pistol grip radio system virtually eliminates the chance of same-channel interference by moving the signal from one channel to another hundreds of times every second while the lightweight receiver responds only to the particular signal coming from the 224 transmitter. Available mid April for a street price of $79.
