For us, yes.
Team RCC converted all the machines in our stable to Spectrum, except one, the Antweight Katyusha.

This made short work of our multitude of RX/TX sets, and all the headaches about failsafes, antennas (you cant hide a 40MHz antenna in a metal armor, nor can it touch it, nor is it a good idea to have it close to the motors or high amp lines), interference and so on. Now we just build in a standard pack. For a heavy that means a Sidewinder and a Spectrum BR6000 reciever, for a feather thats a Scorpion XXL and same reciever.

The only thing we have to do is bind and program the sets.
And buy a new reciever if there is a new machine to be rewired.

Like Grant said: Take a good look at the Spektrum DX6i that is going to hit the shelves a couple weeks time.

It is a very cheap 2.4GHz solution and promises to be a very good alternative to the DX6 and DX7. It has some significant improvements over the DX6, and is a lot cheaper than the DX7 or JR X9303.
