I would never in this age reccomend a simple four channel radio. That is a certain guarantee that you will be looking for radios once agine before you even get to your second airplane. Thats for sure.

Also if you are starting from scratch in this time of change it is most foolhardy to go 72, agine you will soon be in the market for much more radio. There are many thousands of experianced modelers who would be delighted to be in your shoes and not feel the need to change over older airplanes, beleve me I know having just completed changing over 30 airplanes from 72 over the course of two years.

Do not miss out on telemetry give Hitec a consideration great stuff no one else has on the selves at the moment.
