Hello, Can of worms.................Nice to see you again.

Two words for you, English J3 piper cub, "digital trims."

Any computer radio with digital trims is way more convenient than a standard radio with mechanical trims. I found myself spending the first two or three minutes of my flying time re-trimming my old Futaba 4YF transmitter because the mechanical trims would always get moved when carrying or storing the radio. My Futaba 7C with digital trims is always set perfectly when I take off because the digital trims on a computer radio don't get accidentally bumped or changed.

If you're going to buy a new transmitter, a computer radio with digital trims is well worth the extra cash. Even if you only have one plane and will only be flying a 3 or 4-channel trainer, digital trims are worth spending a little extra.

The futaba 7ch pcm is what I have. I like its easy to work with and has a lot of features!

Thanks a lot

What type of servos do you use in your controls?

Well, English, if it's available in So Africa, I would opt for the new Spektrum DX7. Spread Spectrum 2.4GHz is the way to go with absolutely no inteference potential, and, with all the info here on RCU, outstanding performance. The package comes with four digital JR servo's as well as their new dual Receiver setup. I have one, with two receivers installed in two different planes and am going to order another RX as soon as I can.

Best of luck.
