Default RE: Spectrum Receiver type usage


ORIGINAL: lectrictech

Thanks for the respnse All, I'm used to the old stuff and the size alone he rec. causes concern. I'm sure modern tech is better, but I just want the extra input. I have put 5 AR500's in semi trainers and gliders, AR6200 that came in my P-51 PTS and have decided to give the AR7000 a shot in my new (to me) Ricochet 2m plane with YS140S. I just wondered why the need for the rec. that took the additional remote ant. Is this overkill or justifiable for an all out competitive pattern plane.

lectrictech, in a couple of your posts, you've referred to the AR7000 as a receiver with a remote antenna. Actually, the remote is a second complete receiver. When I first got into this hobby, (not all that long ago... ) I thought the same thing.
