Getting back in to flying!!
Hey. I have been away from the hobby seriously for a few years and am interested in making a small investment to get back in to flying. I currently fly an ultrasport 40 and am using an old conquest radio. I am very board with the plane and obviously need to upgrade my equipment. 3d flying and somewhat of a programmable radio have peeked my interest.
This is what I am looking at:
Funtana x100
Saito 125
Hitec Optic 6 (with adequate torque servo's for the application)
I am trying to keep the cost down, hence the cheaper radio. I was also looking at the UCanDo 90, but think this is a very ugly plane! Can someone please offer me some advice on what I have chosen to buy? Keep in mind I am trying to get back in to the hobby as cheap as possible so my wife won't leave me!! The only thing that I am really worried about is the radio. Is it capable enough for this plane? Are the mixes adequate for 3D flying? I am not really sure when you would use the mixes during flight being so new to 3d flight. Some insight on mixes (in knife edge flight for example) would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide!!
