Default Getting up to speed

Hi everyone,

It has been a while since I have been back in the forum and flying and need to get some feedback on what is the current trends.

I want to get a replacement radio to my old and reliable JR 8103 radio, but there are so many new radios and technologies that I am not sure what is today's equivalent of this radio.

Also I want to get into two new project, one electric and one Gas powered scale model.

The objective is to reuse some of the many components that I have laying around, for instance I have a good lipo charger and some 3S2200mha and 6s6000mha batteries from my helicopters that I could reuse.

As for the Gas project, I have a old 3w42i; DA50; Zenoah 26 in great conditions that can be placed to good use.

I am thinking maybe a Large Cub, or a world war fighter, but not sure what is hot and would work well with these engines.

so to some up: advice on new radio (JR is the preference); scale 1/4 scale ARF Gas plane and an electric project.

looking forward to hear some feedback.

thanks
