No. I don't need more than 6 channels. I can fly my war bird with retracts on 5. I don't need flaps - spoilers etc.
I have a budget. If I were to start all over I would consider the spectrum but I also like micro models and extra small recievers might not be availible for the Spectrum yet and I have too much money ( for me ) invested in micro recievers and regular Futaba flight packs to change now.
Actually the DX7 is an improvement over the DX6 which was designed for Park Flyers

Can you live with 7 grams and 39 mm square and 9 mm thick 6 channel?
