RE: What is recomended?
Yes you are correct I have the integrated video card. Like I said, this computer is just used for the internet and that's it.
I won't spend a lot of money to replace the computer or video card as it's just not worth it to me. Frankly I would rather put the $ into equipment and have someone work with me to bring my skills up to what they ought to be. I don't have a lot of money to spend each month in retirement on toys so I have to watch the $ needless to say.
I did checking with some of the club members and almost nobody has an Airtronics radio that can buddy up with me to teach.
Some do have Hitec and many have Futaba and Spectrum.
So I guess now I will check out the DX6i, DX7, 6EX, and that Hitec Optic 6. Whatever I get in a radio will be 2.4 GHz.TheHiteclooks pretty good for value to me at this point.
One thing about this area, there are lots of retirees here and lots of them fly. There are 3 clubs within 15 miles or so and all are pretty active or so it appears.
