Default NEED HELP PLEASE

I want to buy a new radio system for my jato. I dont race but want somthing better than the stock one. I only need 2 chanels and was looking at the Spektrum and the Futaba. I like the Spektrums looks more but is there really any difference???? also not looking to spend a fortune! Thanks, Kevin

Get the radio that fits your hand and budget. Go to the local hobby shop a HOLD the radios with bateries in them.

This is great advice

Get the radio that fits your hand and budget. Go to the local hobby shop a HOLD the radios with bateries in them.
I would recommend going with an FM radio system. Three channels comes standard, there's nothing you can do about the extra channel.

I love my Futaba 3PM, I use it for gas/nitro/electric boats and nitro/electric cars. If I could fly planes using it, I would.

The Futaba 2.4 system is better because it uses more output power and is faster responding.

BUT get the radio that fits what YOU want what YOU want to spend.

I am biased but look at the Nomadio React it does more then either and is faster responding then either plus you can use it as a game controller (ok so I put in a plug so shoot me)

Have you l@@ked at the React NOT the Sensor the React? The React is getting absolutely molsted for good looks at the RC Pro finals right now.

But like I said go to the local hobby shop get the radio that fits you your budget and you want. Remember NO ONE has ever won a beauty contest with a RC controller in there hand they are all goofy. The React is light weight and has no antenna to bust off.
