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 leave much room to grow before you'd be shopping again. Good luck and Happy Holidays, Brent RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
