I fly CL scale and I have a Sig Skyray with throttle control on the model that I use for practice. I use the tactic 650 transmitter that is clipped to my belt. After you fly with 2.4 Ghz you won't go back to the down the wire systems. The conversion from down the wire to 2.4 Ghz required me to swap out to new receiver and I was done!

I only have one model without throttle control so for me flying without throttle is new for me!
