Default Glider radio decision help

Help, which radio for sailplanes??
I am getting back into gliders after a 15 year layoff, needless to say, things sure have changed. I need one or two radios that will allow me to fly multiple planes. Here are the planes I have so far.

Original Hobie that was nib and built by me. rud, elev
McLean Extreme, a full house racer, rud, elev, aile, flaps, 6 servos
McLean Vector, rudd, elev, ailerons, 4 servos (Might add flaps)
Boomerang wing ughhhh (not a big epp fan)
flying scale seagull, elevons, 2 servos
CR Turbo, wingeron, elev
SOS 60" ail, elev
SOS 50"
SOS 42'
Pod and Boom homemade, rudder elev

Radios under consideration are the Futabe 8UAFS and the Futaba 9C Will one of these be better in the long run or are they both pretty good sailplane radios. Good, bad, ugly features??? any opinions out there? thanks
