WANTED: Spectrum Radio

does anyone have a radio for sale with servos and reciever because every place i went to on the internet it said the DX6 brand is discontinued so if you have a extra one that you dont need post it here

 

To get info on the current production Spektrums you can look here:

Most hobby shops or online hobby retailers should carry the DX7, which is probably overkill for your needs. You could also go to a hobby store and get a different radio, such as a Futaba which will also meet your needs.

 

The DX6i is for sale everywhere and it is 20$ cheaper than the dx6

 

I personally prefer the futaba, my friend has a DX6i for his airplane though and that would meet his needs. I just wasn't sure if the 6i was discontinued with the 6.

DX 6i $179

 

yeah execpt the one at BC does not come with a reciever or servos

 

YOu can order servos online, or you can get them from a hobby store. Same with the Spektrum receiver.

 

Spextrum DX6i Features

6 Channels
Full range 2.4Ghz DSM Raidio
10 Model Memory
2.4 Ghz DSM (Digital Spectrum Modulation) Technology
Includes the NEW AR6200 Reciever ###############

It comes with the receiver Sean. You can get servos at your local hobby shop. Heck now days you only need one for your rudder.

 

Speaking from experience Sean you are going to get real board sitting there staring at your new Shiny radio with no ship to work on [V]

 

I never get bored of staring at my radio!

 

My mama always said simple things amuse simple minds []

 

thanks

 

When building any small ship, unless the radio is packaged with sub-micro servos such as those that would be used on a featherweight indoor flyer, it's better to purchase the servos separately from the transmitter and receiver. Whether a radio does or doesn't come with servos shouldn't dictate whether or not you buy it; whether the radio itself meets your needs should.

 

yeah im looking for a raido to but im getting the one off of BC and webwookie it says in your singnature your USS Gearing, DD-710 is stricken what does that mean

 

stricken means sold / scrapped.

 

Technically, stricken means that a ship was removed from the Naval Registry, thus it was allowed to be sold and/or scrapped. By, really the same thing i guess. Not that Webwookie has a Naval Registry.

 

ohh ok

 

Didn't someone post on one of the other forms something about a Radio from this company (5 Channel) for about 100$ new in the box?

I'll look and try and find it..
