On rcgroups,I saw an advertisement for this site.

http://www.xtremepowersystems.net/index.php

I saw one of their lipos advertised to be 6000mah but looked real small and they had some nano receivers.

Does anybody know about these guys?They sell products from Graupner ,A123 systems and Xtremepowersystems.

They look really good but  if anybody knows about them,please let me know.

To tell you the fact flying a XPS system is like a night mare beware... this system has failed several times in big events & pilots stay away from this. The XPS has even been banned by the Jet association that no pilots allowed to fly jets using the XPS. I met a German pilot who shared his experience with about XPS. Try searching the web & you will get to now more about the XPS system.

They are known for their Xtremelink 2.4Ghz modules, which was one of the earlier such systems that came into the market, and boasted of large ranges.

But are they worth all the hype?They claim lots of stuff.How much of it is true?I don't think a lot of it is true seeing what sharlock had to say.

Graupner made a mistake by joining hands with XPS. Graupner has a good reputation in EU. But the good news is now they have joined hands with WEATRONIC 2.4 GHz Dual FHSS system which the BEST in my opinion, has lots of features & secure German technology

Graupner is mainly used in EU & not in the US if you see these transmitter are designed to be used with a TX tray & not hand held. I have seen in Germany almost all fly multiplex or Graupner.
