First off let me start by saying, HI!
I am a Instrumentation and Electrical technician in the oil field in North Eastern Utah. I am very excited! I finally am making the plunge and am getting into the RC hobby!
I think one of my goals it to fly FPV racing quads, but that will be down the line a little bit. So to start off I want to buy a Nano QX to start practicing flying a quadcopter. I also want to build an FT simple storch with my two sons. (5 and 3 years old.)
My issue is that I am not sure what transmitter I should get. I am torn... I am debating between two different transmitters:
Spektrum DX6

or
FrSky Taranis X9D
http://www.alofthobbies.com/frsky-taranis-plus-x8r-combo.html
I like the Taranis due to it being modular, and uber programmable.
I like the Spektrum due to it being so widely used and pretty much plug and play with everything I am interested in. (and the wireless buddy boxing.)
What are the general thoughts of people around here?
Thank you in advance for the advice!
