I am looking to upgrade from my old Futaba FP (non-computer) radio, to a computer radio. I have never used a cptr radio before, so am looking for advice from those of you who have.

I am looking primarily for a heli radio, but want one that will do planes as well, that way I can have 1 radio for everything. I want to stay with FM, since I have quite a few receivers already, so I don't want to have to replace them all.


I am looking for Tx only - not a complete system

I am thinking of either of these:

Hitec Eclipse 7 (in FM)
Futaba 7CHF (in FM)

or.... ?
I have a budget of $300

I need something that is easy to program, will do REVO and CCPM mixing, etc...

What would you suggest, and why?

Thanks a lot

Terry
