Default RE: helicopter radios


ORIGINAL: crazytom911

Im in the same boat.. i will be getting the T-rex 450 sport super combo soon and was looking at the dx8 which receiver would you recommend using with it if i go with just the TX ??
I run the AR6100 on both of my 450 helicopters. Started out with using AR7000 w/remote...but thought it was overkill to start and then the more reading I did online seemed that people were fine with usingthe 6100's on 450 size and smaller helis.

If you want more redundancy you could go with ar6200 or 7000 (or whatever their new X series replacements). Its just I cant see myself ever flying the 450 out of range of a 6100...so I kept cost down and went with that and used my 7000's on some larger gas airplanes I have in the hangar.
