This old goat got back into RC again after a 14 year lapse. The 6XA and 6XAS was the most popular at our field. The price was right ($230) and much cheaper than my Kraft's, Pro-Line's Heathkits etc. The newer radios look gaudy. I miss the manual trims. I use very few of the computer functions. A built in timer would be nice. Have had mine two years and use it with two models. No problems. No regrets, however am considering the Hitec Flash 5 as my next radio just for electrics and I like to try different brands.
