Depends how you want to crash, if you want to go down due to overheating buy Futaba, if you want lockouts buy JR/Spektrum... at the end of the day its up to you, but at the end of the day a crash is a crash. Of course you could be like me and ignore all the crap in forums and fly what you feel comfortable with.
Although Futaba has never admitted there was a heat problem it has been corrected on all receiversimported from the factorysince about the last quarter of 2008.
However whatever is going on with JR Spektrum has not been addressed or corrected so speaking for myself I would be kind of leary of useing JR Spektrum at
least on more expensiveplanes.
