Ah, but I can do all those things with my NON-computer Century 7 JR. And I
can do it a lot faster, eaiser (and cheaper). I am not anti computer
radio - they do things the Century 7 could not - like assign/switch function
to a channel. But programming them is 20 years behind the state-of-art.
(And yes I can set the clock on a VCR - thank you.) Regis

I can answer this! And I'm a total newbie! You can effectively use a
computer radio on your first flight! A computer radio isn't just for making
your flaps extend when your zipper drops, it makes installation, set-up,
and learning much easier. You don't have to mess with making sure the
servos are connected the right way, since you can electronically flip any
servo. You don't have to worry about excessive throws, because you set
those in the radio. And best of all, when you first start, you set the
throws really low and use 50 to 100% exponential to make your flying easy.
As you progress with that same model you bring down the exponential and
bring up the throws. It's WONDERFUL!
