As one of the few UK contributors to this thread I was wondering if you could give me some advice. I am returning to turbine models after a 10 year gap and am thinking about upgrading my radio. I currently have a Futaba 14MZ which has served me well but has a couple of issues such as a poor screen in sunlight and short battery life. I do find it easy to programme and have never had a problem with it reception wise. I have always used a two battery set up with a Powerbox dual switch.
I have read some of this thread and am somewhat put off by the complexity of it all! How many receivers do you need? I looked at the basic Jeti 12 which apparently is only an 8 channel transmitter (why call it a 12?) does this need some sort of upgrade to make it 12 channel? I do not anticipate ever needing more than 12 channels.

Any advice gratefully accepted.
