How do you get into a bind with a Spektrum.

drum roll


Ans: You buy one


ba..dish

how do you get into a bind with Futaba? when those potentiometers react differently every time you move the stick.. IN all seriousness, between my 9503 and the 7C I upgraded from there is night and day in the feeling of control and translation of stick movement into the plane. JMHO..to Minnflyer.. have never lost a bind on my spektrum equipment, but I have had my SO's son try to fly 2 planes at once and crash the heck out of 2 because he forget in his 9 y/o ADHD world to select the right model. hey the prop turned, let's fly.. I have had to swap a reciever at the field and bind it, but at $59 and change, I can afford to cary a spare reciever without a C-note invested. OK serious now!!!!!

OP, IF you live in a populated area, I would stay away from 72mz. I would hate to hear you lost a plane because of a CB radio with a linear on it, or some kids Wally World/Ebay special. Join a club. find out who has to have the biggest and baddest equipment as a penile enhancer. See what they want to sell. THat's how I got the 9503..6 months old, bought in off season so had almost no hours on it, and then the 11x came out. $250.00 later, I had the next to biggest and baddest and one heckuva radio. For less than 1/2 price.
