The telemetry could be nice on the Airtronics setup but I've never seen anyone actually use it regularly and only heard of a handful of people who do. Not worth the extra $$$.

Also rare is a glowing endorsement for the Radiopost stuff from real racers who do not also have some variation of sponsorship from the company listed in their sigs.
I have heard more positive things about the futaba than any other radio on the market. Just to let you know, the guy who reccomended the radiopost was sponsored by them. Gonna look at a few more posts on here before i see a clear winner. With the radiopost it seems like it has more features than i need or will ever use. The airtronics i would say is kind of out, because of the telemetry that i dont need and the lack of a backlight. All between the radiopost and futaba now.
