Thanks for all of the input. I will be going to the flying field on Wednesday so I will check to see if anyone is using a Hitec, and what the Buddy box situation is with the club. I know they have Futaba, but am not sure regarding Hitec. I think for my needs right now the Hitec is the way to go. If I progress and get more advanced I can always upgrade. If I start with top of the line equipment right away I might end up in divorce court. The whole I am spending too much money on my R/C addiction thing.

Again, I appreciate all of the input.
