Good day,

This product will unfortunately be removed from our catalogue and it will be replaced by similar products shortly from a different manufacturer.

Please check out our website in the coming weeks for these new products. We apologize for this inconvenience.

Regards,

Yes, I just got this same reply to my backordered sticks from them. Hopefully I'm getting a prompt refund of $51.
From other searches it looks like Hitec has cut the supply to everyone. Guess I'm stuck with the stock sticks!

It's already in backorder ... but the price is the same as the "old" 9X without TX module.

9xR. While it is an interesting alternative, there are some issues with the first batch. Might want to check out the RCGroups 9xR thread here: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1628785

I ordered the new 9XR gimbals from Hobbyking, and it arrived some days ago. The mounting holes don't fit the original, but I tie down the new gimbals wiht small plates. The feel was much better than original, but after 3 mins movement, either of direction's pot has contact failure....

I don't recommended this cheap gimbal.
Unnecessary waste of money

Didn't know they were that bad

I can't see why the gimbals are bad for 6 bucks. They are used in the 9xr and seem to work at least as good as the old tx, as opposed to the buttons, which I had to replace.
