I am currently looking at getting a new system myself. I am looking for a transmitter that can hold at least 15- 20 models, I currently have 9 planes, and would like to build 1 or 2 more on top of that. I currently don't have that many receivers. I like that the Hitec Auroa had telemetry feature that allows you to see the receiver battery level and will have other options in telemetry, and the price for receivers is very affordable(I think $50 or so for a 6 channel) I think the Airotronics 8000 is the best deal out there right now, but a little too basic for me for a 5+year radio. I see that Jr is coming out with a new transmitter, it will be interesting to see the details on that. I am going to the hobby store one of these days and feel every radio andtry to see which one feels the best.
