Default Time for a new radio...what to get?

I need a new radio, I'm a beginner at 3D and I also love electric sport and sailplanes, I've used JR in the past, but I don't really care what brand as long as it's reliable. My budget is $200. Any advice?

Thanks,
Rod

Futaba 6EX 2.4ghz can be found at US$ 179.95 + shipping at rcmart.com and unitedhobbies.com, and maybe also at other places.
Shipping will bring it a tad above your US$ 200 limit, but then you get a 6 channel system with no need to worry about free channels.

Biggest problem IMO Extra receivers are NOT cheap [:@]
