Your old D70 was crap compared to my new Nikon D50 But you battery was a killer boost for my photos when I ran out... Just kidding! Both are super. I have not set myself into the difference in the D70 compared to the D50. The D50 feels better in my hand though. I think they have done some small

I like the Hitec Flash radios; a Flash 4 is pretty cheap now, and they do basic mixing and can store multiple planes. Might be nice to have the 5, too - would have a little more growth potential before having to move up to a more pricey radio. You could also do their Neon, but it really doesn't

Hi Norm, I think either the Hitec Laser 4 or the Flash 5 make great starter radios. The laser 4 is a standard, non-computer radio and runs about $60 for the tranny. The Flash 5 is a nice computer radio, but runs about $110 for the tranny. Haven't seen you in about 25 years. My wife and I

You guys already hit one of my favorites - one of the three channel radios (Futaba or Hitec are the ones I know). Things that are useful include V-tail coupling, servo reversing, FM on something other than the 27MHz band (for flying), double tuned receiver and NiCd batteries. The latter adds

I use a JR6102 for slope and park flyers. Nice package and 10 model memories and digital trims with a decent amount of programmability. It's not going to do your 6-servo sailplane, but for anything less, it works just fine. I have it in some models with flapperons, flying wings, and electrics.
