Default Best Radio for Jets?

Hi All,

bkf is a hell of a pilot, he doesn't even need the elevator!!!
Just kidding, couldn't resist.

My thought is the more complicated the jet, the more channels you end up needing. I fly my Bobcat/RAM 500 using a Futaba 8 channel PPM radio.

1- ailerons via y harness
2- elevator via y harness
3- throttle
4- rudders via y harness
5- retracts
7- wheel brakes

As you can see I still have two channels, 6 & 8 left over. More complex jets require the use of speed brakes and flaps.
