Yep. So does the Futaba... and I would think so does the Hitec... but the description on Tower does not say charger.

Your choice. As I said, I prefer the Airtronics.. I was "broght up" on Airtronics. This becomes a " Ford vs. Chevy" argument where the Futaba gestapo would spit on Airtronics users.. (just kidding, Minnflyer.. ) but for basic systems are just that and work just fine.
