RE: Hitec eclipse 7 or Futaba 7 chf?
I used to recommend the Eclipse for iys' seven channel and 5 pint pitch and throttle curves. But now that Futaba has come out with their 7C it is now the radio I recommend. Why? Mostly because the Futaba gyros seem to be the gyros of choice and have been for years. As a beginner you will probably find that programming them with the 7C will be easier. Also as you progress, you may want to get into a GV-1 governor, it too will be easier to integrate into the 7C.
I also find the 7C's programing wheel a big asset when programing.
