GREAT RADIO, ONCE YOU HAVE LEARNED TO PROGAM IT.

Peter Hawtin | Aug 26, 2008

Strengths:

This is a very flexible radio giving the more advanced users the opportunity to carry out very comprehensive mixes. I love the feel of the sticks; they are fully adjustable, allowing everything from the lightest feel to real heavy weight, and all without opening the case. The case feels really good in the hands, with nice rubber pads on the rear where your fingers sit. A nice touch is the storage compartment for the 35Mhz aerial, keeping it safe until needed.

Weaknesses:

One thing really comes to mind. . . .

Overall:

I have been flying on a Futaba FF9 (9CAP) and more recently on the Super version. I wanted to try 2. 4 GHz and felt I wanted to keep my 35 MHz receivers, and have the opportunity to "try" 2. 4 GHz.
