Introducing JR SPORT

RC Hobbies have never been more affordable to enter into as it is now, and the quality of what is now considered to be entry-level equipment rivals what was considered to be the top-tier equipment just a short time ago. Radio equipment can be one of the most confusing parts of an initial purchase. While some people go for the all out high dollar equipment to start with, others buy the cheapest equipment they can find, not knowing how long they will stick with the hobby. But what if you could get that high level of performance at a budget friendly price? Well, now you can. Horizon Hobby is proud to introduce JR SPORT.

What is JR SPORT?

Just because someone is new to the hobby or on a budget doesn’t mean that they don’t deserve to have great radio equipment at a great price. With these motivating factors, the JR SPORT concept was born. JR SPORT takes many of the best performing analog servos, radios, receivers, and accessories and prices them at a point that anyone can enjoy the performance and quality of JR Electronics. Whether it’s a servo extension, a high-torque servo, or a 10-memory 6-channel radio with exponential, JR SPORT has you covered.

JR SPORT Transmitters:

When it comes down to it, if you don’t have a quality radio, your other equipment doesn’t make much of a difference. This is where the JR SPORT Transmitters come into play. The S400 keeps things simple and affordable while still providing excellent signal quality. The 4-channel operation of the S400 makes it perfect for entry level and basic sport flying, and the trainer cord compatibility offers newcomers the confidence to know that they don’t need to go at this alone. The SX600 has many break-through features, unheard of at this price before now. The SX600 can store profiles for up to ten different models and offers users adjustable exponential rates, allowing pilots to fine tune and smooth out the responsiveness of their plane. The large and easy to read display invites users to easily work with and program their radio.

JR SPORT Servos:

How many times have you walked into a hobby store looking for a servo, and unless you memorize specs, a servo with a model number ABC123 doesn’t mean much to you. That’s where JR SPORT is not only price smart, but also the model numbers were created to make things easy for everyone. What if you need a standard sized metal-geared servo? Well then the ST125MG is right for you, as the ST denotes a standard size case, MG denotes that it has metal gears, and the 125 refers to 125 oz/in of torque @ 4.8volts. All eight JR SPORT servos feature universal connectors that will plug into major brand receivers and they still feature JR’s industry leading 3-Year warranty

JR SPORT Receivers:

Whether you need a standard sized receiver or a micro receiver, JR SPORT is going to be able to take care of you. The standard sized RS600 is a major brand compatible variant of the same JR receiver that was rated tops in performance in independent lab tests. It features six separate channels making perfect for smaller park fliers up to many ARFs and trainers. The RS6UL has been well tested under fire. In fact, 5 out of 6 pilots in the First Annual Indoor TOC used this receiver. The RS6UL is available in positive shift for JR and Airtronics users, or as a first for any JR receiver, negative shift for Futaba or HiTec users. Now everyone can enjoy the quality of JR.

JR SPORT Accessories:

JR SPORT will be there for you, not only when you need big items like receivers and servos, but also when you need support equipment such as batteries and extensions. From 700mAh Ni-Cd packs to high capacity 1500mAh and 2700mAh Ni-MH packs, look no further than JR SPORT. The JR SPORT extensions range in length from 3-36 inches and also include switches and Y-harnesses.

JR SPORT AirPacs

If you’re looking to get everything you need to equip a new plane and you already have a transmitter, check out the JR SPORT AirPacs. Three different combinations are available depending on what your desired application is. The standard AirPac is perfect fr mid-sized models. The Standard AirPac includes four ST47 servos, 12-inch extension, 700mAh Ni-Cd pack, and a 6-Channel RS600 FM receiver. The 120-Size AirPac is an awesome value for larger scale models. The 120-Size pack comes with five ST125MG metal-geared servos, 1500mAh Ni-MH battery, switch, two 12-inch extensions, and a 6-channel RS600 receiver. For park flyers, check out the Micro AirPac with it’s RS6UL micro receiver and two sub-micro servos. This Pac is available with either positive or negative shift receivers.
