Is a 6 channel overkill?
Ive been looking at getting into rc and have been looking around at radio gear. I have set myself on getting a slow stick for a first plane and was going to get the flight pack for it (or at least most of it if my LHS doesnt have that exact pack) and that left me with a radio. So i was looking around and came across the futaba 6EXA Computer radio. I wasn wondering if A) this is too much radio for what i will need(i know it is more than needed for a SS but what about future planes). B) is this radio tough to learn on as a begginner. I know that in many things that better equipment requires more skill to use. C) Is there a better computer radio for less? I know my LHS is a dealer of futaba but i have only been in there 2 times so i didnt really look at the other stuff close. Any help would be apprecieated.
