Good for you!!! To the OP

As you can see I recommended the Hi-tec Aurora 9 in my last post, because TODAY I think that is the best value....

That is what I would get if I had to do it again today......

But I started out with a DX7 and have been flying it for over 4 years......it is a great radio and enjoy all your features!

As you can see many of these threads get into a Spektrum -vs- Futaba battle and there are good points on both sides......

Either is a great radio and I personally think you made a good choice, so enjoy your BNF options (Micros and park flyers) as well as the features of your new DX7!!!

Good luck in this great hobby!!!!

Just toss that 4.8V battery IF the combo comes with a 4.8V Rx pack and fly 6V packs.....the hydrimax ultra 6V 2000Mah packs are great!

Enjoy and safe landings!
