The brands must match between TX and RX in any case. It sounds like you don't want to take the route I took. Post #4 is best advise from Levram1 I think. Pick one of the biggies.
ps. If you have a couple of Tactic rx in the FZ planes then when purchasing a TX you may be interested in buying one that works with the anylink so it'll fly those Tactics without buying new RX for them.
