I get all worked up and most of the times impatient I was already connected via e-mail with Aloft Hobbies about another issue I was having and asked them as well, they responded:
"Hi Danny,
No, it is not obsolete, they have started producing them with a different RF board for use with their ACCESS system. They will have update kits available for a small fee for those that have the ACCST version. You will still be able to use your receivers, they are still being produced with the ACCST Protocol, with exception to the D and V series. The D and V series are being phased out.
With the hardware update, there will be a firmware and ISRM update required.
I would Stick to the X series receivers if buying multiple receivers at this point. The new radios and the new system will not work with the D and V series.
The Qx7 is too popular to be discontinued.
Thanks,
Chris
So not being 100% in tune with the latest trends I am relieved. I'm trying to pursue this 2nd hobby and not get shot by my wife at the same time. Thanks for chiming in.
