Default RE: Great Planes 300s .40 (RTF)?

The equipment setup is descent, but the Futaba 6XH is a Heli Radio, and the 6XA is Airplane radio. The 6XH will work just as good for Plane, its just that the settings and such are in Heli Terms. No big deal, I just wanted to make sure that you knew that. Also the Plane will probally work fine for you, but I would make sure you have an experienced pilot take you up with a buddy box the first few flights if you have been away from the hobby that long. A guy could probally get pretty rusty over that many years. You may even want to consider taking a few trips up with a Trainer just to get some feel of the radio back. Below is a photo of my GP Extra 300S .40 waiting patiently for a new engine.
