BTW...I'd REALLY think twice about going with the Futaba over a Spektrum. My 3.0 is ten times easier to use, and the manual on the Futaba is not worth the paper they printed it on.

Hi, I'm actually in Renton. I did check reviews and it seemed like it wasn't hard to find threads complaining about something on both systems. I have already purchased it, as I mentioned, so I'll just manage (maybe even enjoy LOL). I was able to get it for less than $150 shipped (new), so I went for it. My AM is getting interference around power lines and in wooded areas, so 2.4G should help.
I think George16's idea of coiling it, sounds easy. I wouldn't want to cut it, since that would definitely devalue the system, in case things don't work out and I want to sell it. I was just curious if people were actually cutting it.
