I wouldn't worry about the fact that the 3PK is discontinued. I assume that the warranty is still the same. There's one very very important thing you have to remember if you buy the 3PK/3PKS - don't buy the first version of the Spektrum system for it. Get the Spektrum Pro version or Futabas Fasst system. They had a lot of problems with the first generation of Spektrum modules for the 3PK/3PKS.
The "old" 3PK is still an excellent radio. The top drivers where I live use it, and they could easily afford to buy the 3PKS if they wanted to.
Squee still uses his M8, also an excellent but discontinued radio. Don't worry - the 3PK is an excellent choice.
