Radio choices?
What is a good radio to start with under $300.00? I was looking at the RD8000 RD6000 and a couple of Jr's, Did I leave any good ones out?

I like JR products, so the 6102 is good, but why not put another $100 with that and get a 8103. Great radio that you won't outgrow.... at least for many years.

There are some decent Futaba 6 channel radios under $300...
Basickly in the $250 -$300 range... its a matter of personal preference. Some will pick a JR, others a Futaba and a few will pick Airtronics. (Airtronics suffers from thier reputation back when they didn't put out as good quality as they do now)

You should consider the 6102 with PCM receiver set up, The 8103 PCM, 811 servos shipped from HeliProz was 515.00 , if that is still beyond your current reach, 6102 will be the best blend of 8103 and 662 models
