RE: Futaba vs. JR for my 2nd Tx
Ford or Chevy?
Out of those two I would get the 9C but my advice is to go somewhere that has them, see how they feel in your hand, if the switches fell natural etc. If you can have someone walk you through some basic programming so see which is more intuitive to you.
They both will probably provide you years of useful service and anyone that says either brand is "better" is either brand loyal or hasn't flown both.
I looked at the 9c and the 9303 when it came time to replace and it came down to how the 9c felt and the fact I already had a drawer full of Futaba recievers.
