Hey everyone,
So I'm in the market for a new TX. I have a Graupner MZ-12 with two receivers now and am looking at two different transmitters...
1.) FrSky Taranis Plus
2.) Graupner MZ-18 (I have no need for the MZ-24, I can't possibly think of a way to use 12 channels!)
So, I did some math on the Taranis and figured out that I'd be spending around $.
Here's my reasoning:
-Taranis Base TX (~$200)
-Receivers (~20 each) x4
-Hall Sensor Gimbals ($45)
-Case ($20)
•All In at $200 after profit from Graupner radio (sell for $150)
Now, if I went with the Graupner, I'd be spending:
-Graupner TX, 2 RX, case, etc ($250 used, great condition)
•Then I'd be in $150 after selling the old Graupner (just the transmitter for $100, broken switch, too)
So it's $200 for Taranis or $150 for Graupner. Do I spend the extra $50 on the Taranis or go with the Graupner?
Keep in mind that I'm already familiar with Graupner's software...
I've put in a few bids on eBay for a used Taranis with no luck. They usually sell for only $10 under retail new.
Thanks for your help!!!
