MSRP is not the same as MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) which is the price that a vendor tells their dealer network is the price they must use in all advertising and marketing. Some go so far as to set it as THE price that the end-point retailers MUST sell at. Again, that is not the same thing as MSRP.


From the keyboard of Bax:

""MSRP" = Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. "Street" price is whatever the seller chooses, usually discounted off of MSRP."

Well Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price is only a suggestion

 

[Judge]

Yep, and MAP is usually a contracted price that all retailers must adhere to.

I'm interested in the dual power receiver, but going by the Jap price its gonna be $300aud or more here

I love my 8FG and have no intention of moving on from it just yet, only a year or two old now so plenty of life left in it.

I just finished getting all 5 of my planes programmed in to my 14sg which is very similar. I am really liking it now that the dial and my fat finger have found a good understanding relationship. Now the only thing that is some what bothersome with 14sg to me is having to lock the dial so the palm cheek of my right hand does not activate the model menu! No big deal but if the 18 is more "interface" friendly and allows for easier and more rapid field adjustments I am game for one. Really want to try one of those dual power receivers too!

Just thought I put this out here......For those who do not want to lug a metal suitcase to the field I found what I think is a really cool radio case at a really cool price.....10 bucks. Automotive interior grade finish and compact design. Available in Camo, Grey, Red, Orange, Blue.

Just placed an order for the R7018SB receiver. Expected delivery is end of June.

Cool. Let us know how you like it. We here in the US will have to wait for the FCC to do their thing with it before we can get it.
