12 channel radio and high torque motor question

[Espeefan]

I run a Futaba 12FG. I like it a lot. Not as cheap a some options out there, but it's very programmable, and you can set it up for any model. Your bound to get a lot of opinions on this question, because everyone has their favorites. I used to be a HiTec fan, but after going all Futaba radio gear, I have been extremely happy. Never a glitch or problem binding the receivers, and always reliable. I've run Futaba gear on everything from my nitro helicopter to my rock crawlers. The 2.4 giga-hertz receivers aren't cheap (for each model you want to run), but you get what you pay for.

If you are not using all channels at the same time, you can just switch a bank of servos off and another one on. Problem is that your trim and endpoint adjustment will be shared between both banks.

If the functions are only on/off (outriggers in or out, axle up or down), you might get away with even simpler stuff.
