RE: Weatronic Receiver or Futaba Receiver + Powerbox??
I have a Weatronic in my Reaction. It has two Li-Ion batteries. Most guys in my club seem to be going to 2.4 so the 36Mhz band is less congested. Also with the weatronic you can switch to a free frequency if you have a TX with selectable frequencies.
With the weatronic to get two receivers and the wonderful logging function. It shows servo load and current draw, and if you have a high end Weatronic you get the GPS and Gyro.
And it is all in one box and very simple to setup.
I havnt worked out the cost difference but to me it is worth it.
