RE: pcm9x or futaba c9ap
u mean pcm10x.
I have no clue, ima newbie, buti kno that is da pcm 10x vs 9cap.
Unfair comarison.
U should compare pcm10x vs 9Z WC2.
Anyway, get the pcm 10x if u cannot afford 9Z WC2.

If you want the PCM9X, then I would suggest that you get it from an authorised European Distributor. Failing that, if you look at the MacGregor website, they have a list of shops. Choose one of the shops that has a website, and you can order it online. Most of these will split a package so you can buy just the transmitter on its own.
The European spec 9X supports Acro/Glid/Heli, User Selectable Mode 1 - 4, PPM, SPCM & ZPCM. The far east stores do not sell the Euro Spec 9X.

iirc the EU version is under the Graupner/JR label?, and from reading Graupner's catalog the firmware's lot more versatile than the 9X available in Asia at the moment. Hopefully the US version (with reportedly updated firmware) will be worth the wait ...

What, no touch screen from Futaba yet 
But seriously, take a look also at the Graupner/JR line, which iirc h/w is from JR, lots of very nice features - pity JR/Horizon somehow has no plans to ever bring 'em to the US. (and fwiw 8103 and 378 are acro/glid/heli)

[X(]The pcm9x labeled jr/graupner is not the same radio,this is a MX22,the software is more complete,but the prices is not egual...I'think that the PCM9X european and the PCM9X asiatic have the same spec(mode 1-4,hely acro plane)it'right?

RE: pcm9x or futaba c9ap
WRONG !!!
The 9X sold in Europe is the NET-N229ES EXPORT VERSION, the Asian Market is either HS or FS ( Heli or Fixed Wing ). Also, the Asian Market sets are NOT User Mode Changeable. Only the ES versions support Heli/Acro/Glid & Mode 1 - 4.
Search some of the other threads on the 9X and you will find that a lot of people who bought over the web from the far east are now stuck with single mode transmitters. Currently there is no way to change the functionality from the Asian version to the European spec.
