Question Spektrum AR6600T or AR6270T for 2M F3A?

Spectrum has two new Rx which I think would be good for 2M with their small lightweight design and integrated telemetry.

There is a key difference between the two which I wanted to see if anyone had any comments about. The longer antenna allows you to route them outside of a full carbon fuse to increase range which is not possible with the shorter ones.

Any comments?

Not much to say really. Depending on your plane, either would be OK.

Carbon shields the signal, so one has longer antennas so they can be routed outside the fuse to get a good signal.

Just make sure to perform a good range check before you fly.

I've been flying the 6600T for some time now in BJ Craft models. They are excellent and address some of the issues earlier RX's had. I am using one satellite RX with the main RX.
