Tactic compatible rx

My Tactic handbook says that the Tactic tx will talk to other rx that use true SLT technology.

Thanks!

SPAD GNAT Sport Flyer w/Magnum .30 4s

My latest project turned out well. This is a nice, easy-flying combination. You just can't beat the sound of that little four-stroke engine.
