Really need advice for radio system purchase!
What's up, yo. I need something to control the new ride, tired of the old JR alpinaPCM 27mHz 2-channel I used with my GT the last 8 years. I want to control both vehicles with it, so this presents me with some issues I am torn on. I like the look of the japanese-built KO Propo Helios the best, it is cheaper than the Futaba, but the issue here is I like the Futaba's failsafe capabilities. I have heard bad things(and good things too) about onboard failsafes failing, and think PCM plus Throttle return spring gives me confidence. Any advice on the radios themselves and the failsafe issue?
Oh, and if I go Futaba, I was wondering how valuable the HRS digital servo only system is. I would prefer to go standard analog, don't need the extra speed and battery drain I think and problems with throttle servos. But I may be wrong...also, don't really want to change servos in the RC10GT...already need a second Rx for it...they are analog.
