Anyone put a micro radio in a Lightning Big? I have one that was single channel from years back and would like to put an elevator and rudder digital micro system in it. Still have the Cox .010 in it. and flew it for years with single channel. Now that there are systems that are lighter than the old Oarion receiver and the Citizenship SE2 escapement I also would like to know if anyone knows of a suitable radio for this plane.

I haven't done a Lightning Bug, but I have put a micro system in a re-created Top Flite Schoolboy like the one I flew on a Babcock escapement in about 1965. It flies great.
