RE: What Radio?
I guess you could go on forever, I got the 6 exa because was not much more than a basic six channel radio. And I guess you could get the 6x because its not much more than the 6 exa, and I guess you could probably get something better than the 6x for not much more, and so on untill you end up talking yourself into spending way more money than you need to.
I am a beginner and I got the 6 exa and am very happy with it. My favorite part is that the trims are saved. You don't have to worry about bumping them and messing them up. It has features that I am sure will suffice on my first several planes. By the time I am ready for a plane that needs more features there will proably be something much better on the market. In my opinion my 6 exa is more than plenty for a beginner probably for long while.
