Mike--
Buy the Futaba--it is a wonderful radio that will do virtually anything you
want. The versatility of being able to reassign switch functions and the
option to configure the open PMIX functions are worth much more that the few
bucks you might save getting the Hitec. There are a couple of vendors that
will sell just the TX for about $230. You won't be sorry.......
