As pointed out above, Servo City offers the 'best of both worlds' if you want to use Hitec electronics in your plane. If you want Futaba, they have several 'stock' flight packs to choose from.

In Hitec, they offer several 'pre-selected' packs; or you can create a totally custom pack with exactly the components you want for less dollars than buying individual components.

Orders over $100 shipped free; under $100 are charged about $4 for shipping.
