G+_Larry Carbaugh Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 If I was to build a Alien-X, what kind of transmitter should I be looking for, so I do not have to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Eddie Foy Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 "they" say 6 channel. I'd opt for 7+ Adds in future options, like rockets, machine guns, dropping propaganda, etc. :) But more seriously, camera tilt/panning, retractable landing gear, parachute, etc. I run a Futaba T10J. But there are plenty, and seem to be almost like a religion with some folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 If cost is no object. Take a look at the Spektrum DX8 or the FrSky Tarranis X9D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_DeWayne Shorts Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I have a 6 channel now and wish I had a 7 or 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Brent Burzycki Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 You guys are thinking small - 18 channels is the way to go.. http://www.futaba-rc.com/systems/18mz.html Built in camera.... :) Yours for only 3000.00 But seriously I picked up the first suggested TX unit that Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ had talked about the Fly Sky FS-T6 and for the price it seems like a pretty nice unit. But with everything you get what you pay for... I would put it this way.. in photographer terms.. your camera is only as good as your lens... I would say buying a decent transmitter gets you many things the cheaper models do not have or do not do as well.. Like precision controls..

G+_Larry Carbaugh Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ Is this the one you use? My wife get upset with me if I have more TX then I need and ask why I have to have so many, that why I asked what do I really need to get the job done.

G+_Larry Carbaugh Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 Brent Burzycki that is a beautiful unit, but it is out of my price range for right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Brent Burzycki Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Ha... Its out of most of our price ranges...and I think I would need 12 hands to control 18 channels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
