Heads up! We just received our first shipment of Horizon Hobby's newest product line, Electrix. In keeping with the theme, their first car is called the "Circuit" (groan). But aside from the eye-rolling name, at first glance, this truck looks pretty good. They are running $129.99, Ready-To-Run... everything is in the box (even the AA batteries!!).
We have one on hand to sell right now. The other one is being torn apart and run around for the upcoming in depth review of it, which will hopefully be posted sometime in the next week or so, assuming I have the time to get to it.

What is Bind-N-Fly (BNF)?
Bind-N-Fly is much more than just another category or completion level of RC aircraft, like ARF or RTF. It's a revolution in ready-to-fly convenience that RC enthusiasts everywhere have been waiting for. A revolution that is only possible because of Spektrum 2.4 DSM technology.
One Transmitter Endless Possibilities
With a single Spektrum or JR DSM aircraft transmitter you hold the key to the whole world of Bind-N-Fly aircraft that includes everything from tiny Blade helicopters to powerful ParkZone warbirds. That's because all Bind-N-Fly aircraft come out of the box with a Spektrum 2.4GHz DSM receiver built-in. All you have to do is:
Choose a Bind-N-Fly airplane or helicopter
Bind it to your DSM aircraft transmitter
Fly!
New Bind-N-Fly aircraft are appearing all the time from the biggest names in RC flight such as E-flite, ParkZone and Blade.
Be With the One You Love
If you've already invested in a sophisticated Spektrum or JR DSM aircraft transmitter, you're probably reluctant to fly with anything else. After all you've got the stick tension just the way you want it, you know where all the switches are and you love the programming features. For you, your DSM transmitter is as much a part of your flying enjoyment as what you fly with it.
Used to be, enjoying the fun and convenience of ready to fly meant having to use a multitude of different transmitters. That is unless you were willing to risk an aircraft's warranty by swapping out receivers or crystals so you could use your favorite transmitter. Bind-N-Fly makes it possible to have all kinds of exciting ready-to-fly experiences using the DSM aircraft transmitter you've become attached to. No new control configurations or ergonomics to get used. No extra transmitters taking up space in your field box. If you're a one radio pilot, this is ready to fly the way you always dreamt it could be.
Don't Pay for What You Don't Need
Bind-N-Fly aircraft reduce the cost of ready-to-fly fun because they don't include a transmitter that you don't need. You only get the airplane or heli you're interested in and any accessories necessary to get it flying. You'll save money and space on your transmitter shelf at the same time.
Discover the Precision of DSM
Maybe you don't have a DSM aircraft transmitter yet and have been looking for a reason to make the jump. Bind-N-Fly aircraft are the ideal reason to invest in the unparalleled precision and response of a Spektrum or JR 2.4GHz DSM system. And there's a system for every budget and experience level, from the unbelievably affordable Spektrum DX5e 5-channel transmitter all the way up to the amazing JR 12X 12-channel system.
