An entry level radio is good for entry level! Once your out flying with others you will experiance, and see what others are using. Their likes, and dislikes. Which you can base your choice on when you upgrade. This radio will get used over the years, as a float plane, glider, cub, knock around plane, foamy etc. It gets you flying, most important. There will be lots of $60 days ahead,if you can imagine what I'm talking about, Ha-Ha.
Enjoy the hobby, build, fly, advance -repete-
