Im in absolutely no position to comment either way! In my limited understanding, all my planes, as they stand, don’t require more than 5 channels to fly so the so the six channel should be more than enough.

If I do continue in the hobby my son or daughters can use this 6 channel and I can upgrade radios. If I decide it’s not for me or I’m happy enough at 6 channels then money saved.

I am very experienced in another hobby and we get newbies all the time asking the equivalent questions I’m asking! Some buy top of the range kit from the outset, some progress from basic to advanced. Personally I started with basic stuff and learnt my way through the hobby, selling off and buying better, and 16 years later I’m still into it and doing the same!
