which by the sounds of it i should be able to get away with a 6 channel and should be fine with all my trucks that i have planned? which i am thinking a dx6 then. whats differents on the modes etc?
Ok I am going to be blunt and to the point here. You mention a Premacon excavator and a dump truck or trailer and an $800 radio is out of the question. That is like saying give me the Z06 Corvette but leave out the CD player I will just take the AM radio.


I would say the DX10 or DX18, bite the bullet now or latter but it will be cheaper now then buying a cheaper smaller radio that you will outgrow quickly and then end up buying the bigger radio.
