I have also been flying Futaba for ever.
But my next radio will most likely be the Horus X10S
I like the dual battery and dual rx power box for 16 channels that they make.
You connect the 2 rx`s to the powerbox with a sbus cable on each rx, and then have 16 channels out, with redudant battery bus, and also rx redundancy, and diversity..
I like the adea that you can place one rx in the nose , and one ai the top of the plane, så they sort of work like satelites, and it chooses the best reception.
The TX allso has 2 internal antennas, and one external.
