What's up folks,
I used to fly about 10 years ago but just got out of the habit, short of time. I am wanting to get back into it. I still have all my gear and was wondering is a Futaba FF6 outdated now. I am thinking of getting the Bixler from Hobbyking, to start off with and then progress back to my engine models. From what I can see the FF6 may not work with the Bixler ARF version. Not sure if the 35mhz FF6 transmitter is good enough as they are all 2.4ghz now. Can anybody confirm if it would work? Could I just swap the supplied receiver with my own receivers? Will the connectors supplied with the Bixler connect to my older receiver? I know there are cheap radio sets on the website but would rather use my existing transmitter but not sure if the Bixler hardware will suit my radio.
Cheers for any help that could be given, my knowledge is definitly outdated.
