Default RE: ok, getting confused...which Radio??

All radios have a secure link when they are working right, at present i dont think any one
brand has a significantly better range than the next. pcm or ipd can sometime allow a
little better immunity to some types of interfernce but they all have their limits.

At present i use Hitec overall i have good sucess with them not 100% trouble free but ok.
if i was to buy a new set up today it would most likley be a Futaba 9C because of the
features and i see a lot of them and here way more good reports than bad.

I have a Optic 6 and so far i like it but i think Hitec may cut to many corners with the
quality on some of their products trying to keep the price down.

Also from what i here on RCU fourms i would be a little afraid to buy a tracker also.
I do wish that all the RC radio manufactors would realize that their radios are sometimes
are installed in some very exepensive models and not cut any corners with quality.

Also there is the safety factor to consider when flying model airplanes and we all want
the most reliable product possible.
