Well HK were going to send me a review unit -- but now they're saying they won't do that until they've caught up on all the back-orders, which is kind of pointless. By that time people will have already decided whether to take the risk or not so a review is redundant.
They say they're selling them faster than they can stock them so a review won't do anything to help sales.
I agree that they may have more to lose than they have to gain by having a the product carefully scrutinized. When a vendor is 100% confident in their product (as Hitec appears to be with theirs) then they are more than keen to have it reviewed.
When a vendor is "not so sure", they often say "no thanks, we don't need a review".
Whether this applies in the case of the Orange receivers, only time will tell.
