KO Propo Helios 2.4 Ghz

Anyone know when/if a 2.4 AFS module will be available for the Helios?

It might not be clear on the other threads, but most KO equipment is backwards compatible, so the new stuff should just pop into the Helios. They should be available at around the same time as the ARRs become available

Thanks Cristian! I saw the new KO with a Helios AD module so figured it would work. Now I have to figure out what ARR is and when it will be out LOL!

Correfct on both accounts. I believe ARR refers to having everything but a Tx.

Confirmed! The RF-901S 2.4GHz module and the RF-901SM 2.4GHz Mini-Z module will work with both the EX-1 UR and the EX-10 Helios! We are still trying to figure out the difference between the RF-901S and RF-901SM modules and whether they will be interchangeable or not. I'd like to be able to run non-Mini-Z with the KO 2.4GHz receiver with the same module as a 2.4GHz Mini-Z if possible. We'll see...

Relevant part numbers:
15502 - RF-901SM 2.4GHz SS RF Module for Mini-Z
80192 - EX-1 UR 2.4GHz (Tx/Module for Mini-Z)
80252 - EX-10 Helios 2.4GHz (Tx/Module for Mini-Z)

You guys aren't going to like release dates... May/June. Pricing is TBD, but I don't expect any surprises.

I guess I don't need to hurry and get the ARR just yet. I'm not going to buy a radio just to use it for a few months.

I'm in no hurry either, it's just good to hear that the (80252 - EX-10 Helios 2.4GHz - Tx/Module for Mini-Z) will be available in the next few months.

I've been using the EX-10 Helios for awhile and really, really like it. The ability to swap modules for different purposes with the same radio is very cool.

Yah, we're pushing KO to get visibility on whether the module will be available sooner. I expect that we will be using the Kyosho radios for a few months. They will be good to have around as loaners/backups. They may look goofy, but I'm kind of warming up to them.

And no word on a M11 module release. They really needed to release them for all major radios. futaba airtronics and KO. They would sell more cars that way. I will wait until i can get an M11 module. I love my m11.

I think you're in for a long wait. As I understand it, Ko manufactures the mini-z boards. I can't see Ko making a module for the competition. It would be smarter to corner the market.
