Best Sailplane Radio
Dear Forum,
I am getting back in the hobby, and need to get up to speed on radios again. What is considered the preferred sailplane radio now? Ease of programmability, flexability for all types of planes, price, and performance?
Thanks!

RE: Best Sailplane Radio
Airtronics sponsors a number of champion sailplane pilots and the Airtronics SD-10G has a number of programming and mixing features designed specifically for sailplanes and gliders.

RE: Best Sailplane Radio
Starting with the JR 9303, the programming for the sailplane configuration was specifically designed for this function. Its format differs from either the acro or heli configurations. I haven’t found anything that I want to do on a full house sailplane that couldn’t be done. The same programming is on the 9603 and 12X. The upcoming 11X will probably be the same.
