Introduction and some Questions
#2

Hi Mick,
Welcome to the forum/club.
I only started out in this hobby around April so I know
what it's like deciding on what to get.
I ended up with a Spektrum DX6i radio and don't regret it.
I bought an ST Cessna as my first plane based on the recommendations of other members
and I have found it a nice plane to learn on.
My son bought a T28 Trojan for his first plane and he love that too.
I'd say that either one would be a good choice your you to start with.
I also bought second hand an Electrofun Xp which came with a 27 Mhz radio.
I've greatly modified this plane since and changed receivers over to a Spektrum so
that I no longer use the 27 Mhz.
We do have a few members on 36Mhz but the majority of members are using 2.4 Ghz.
We have some high voltage electricity cables that run across our flying field and there has been
some incidents where we believe the 36Mhz has glitched because of them.
DX7 Radio of course has the extra channel but also has a few extra features that the DX6i doesn't have
Guess if you can afford it that would be they one to get so that you can "grow" into it but
I'm happy with my DX6i.

cheers

Paul
