Default Which Airtronics radio suits me best?

Tossing up between the MX Sport and the MX-3FG.

I want to use it with my Micro T (brushless) and 1/8th MT.

I know the MX-3FG is compatable with analog servos, is the MX Sport?

All I really want to know is if the MX Sport is compatable with analog receivers? Anyone?

I want to use this in my Micro T.

I too am interested in both of these radios. I have called Airtronics tech support a couple of times to ask about the differences, and other than a couple advanced programming capabilities, the MX-Sport has all of the functionality of the MX-3FG. So for me (and due to the sub-$100 price), MX-Sport FTW! Incidentally, tech support told me that either radio will work with analog servos, as well (I did not ask about other receivers, though). Good luck in your purchase.

Well, I just ended up with the MX-3FG. Turns out I also needed a $10 switch (unrelated to the new radio) and the 3FG already had it in the box, so for an extra $20, I got a slightly more capable radio.

Thanks mate.

I ended up buying the MX-Sport.

I got it today.

Can't wait to see how it goes.
