I'd love to get one of the new JR 93's, but $1,000.00 is not the answer right now. Its been a good radio for general sport, but appears I'm outgrowing it. The channel 7 switch mix works but now there's the reversing problem. The Eclipse is a good radio for the price but just too limiting for anything other than general sport flying. Like you said Hitec’s position is those with the anomaly are using the function at there own risk. Said no can do because they have no idea how it got into the Eclipse programming in the first place. When I heard on another message board that newer Eclipse users had this function I contacted Hitec to see if mine could be reprogrammed. Guess it’s a feature in the Optic Six (not sure). Hitec basically called the Ailevator function that showed up in some Eclipse’s an Anomaly. Hitec stuff is fine for bottom-end stuff but I don't think you'll find many larger models using Hitec transmitters - and that's not just a coincidence, there's a message there :-) It's looking to me like this upgrade to the JR is the *best* money I've spent in a very long time. I just bought a JR 9X II (that's 9303 in the USA) because I found my Eclipse 7 far too limited for flying much more than regular glow-powered sports model. However, Hitec's official line is that this mix is not supported so "use it at your own risk" - but that's pretty much Hitec's line on everything. If your Eclipse has newer software (QPCM) you'll find an "Ailevator" mix available that will provide what you're looking for.
