hey Guys,
Dose anyone have or use the HK-7X 2.4Ghz 7ch w/ 5 Model Memory TX & RX V2 (Mode 1) radio? I was looking at this for Both Little Lutzow and Little Prinz! what do you guys thing? its it a good radio? here what it come with: 1 x 2.4Ghz transmitter, 1 x 2.4Ghz Receiver, 1 x Bind Plug, 1x Manual! my question here is what is a Bind plug? This would be my first radio, and one i would keep for a long time!

Frank F just got his about a month ago. We dry tested it on the bench after we waterproofed the receiver, everything was working good. Only issue with it is that it is a helo radio, with a Aero option. When using it in Aero mode it only has 6 channels available, not 7. And when you first turn the transmitter on, you must pull the throttle to max down to clear the alarm, then recenter the stick, before you turn on the receiver. Also the right toggle switch is the throttle cut off, if you have it turned on, the throttle gimble will not function, another safety feature for Helo's, I would just disconnect it inside to prevent hitting it by accident, and then wondering why my boat was not working.

Also mode 1 is European standard, or for lefties, throttle is on the right gimble, instead of the American standard, left gimble.

 

guys
that was the first one i saw, they have a mode 2 one also! its The HK-7X 2.4Ghz 7ch w/ 5 Model Memory TX & RX V2 (Mode 2) also!

I ordered one of the 9 channel Turnigy's, for the same price, plus the spare receivers are only $8.99. Will not get it for about 2 to 3 weeks. But I see they are out of stock again. I waited 5 days, and then they came in again, but are sold out again within minutes.

 

guys,
Is that the best radio for a beginner like me? or are there other radios out there?

Spektrum makes a very nice 5 channel radio, available right here in the states pretty cheap.
