Default Re: Ready to order my first truck

I am a spectrum guy - didn't expect to ever need more than 6 channels but just upgraded to the dx10. A whole lot of choices and seemingly endless possibilities in programming.

U say ask yourself this - do you want one radio to run all - or one radio per truck? Do you want to let a buddy run one of your fleet while you watch or while you run another?

I'll probably just run all from this one radio. I also need a good suggestion for a battery for the truck. I plan on have extra lights on the truck and trailer when I get that far.

I felt at one time I could get away with one radio and actually had all of my trucks using the one Futaba 7CAP, I have since moved up to three radios. When my favorite little girl reached probably ten years old she wanted to run one of my trucks too. She turned out to be a really great operator too. Not so much with the 18 wheelers but she can run the 10 wheeler almost flawlessly. Now at 12 years old she operates that truck very slowly and accurately. I would have no trouble turning her loose with that truck and other owners using their trucks. My worry would be the other owners! All is good at my house!
