True!  I have 2 modular radios, a Futaba 8UHP and a 9CHPS, and by switching modules I can fly 72 mhz (select ANY frequency), Futaba 2.4Ghz and Spektrum 2.4Ghz. Talk about flexibility, in this regard they're better than some of the priciest radios. If a club member has a modular for sale and it works fine, never been dropped, etc., I'd buy it. They are a GREAT value.  I see no need to buy another radio in the future. One can add telemetry features with third-party add-ons also.
