if you read my post again you will realise that i had mentioned the fact we  are not getting servos with the towerhobbies deal . even if they  did offer ,it is still more a  expensive deal that rcd deal . but considering that towerhobbies doesn't offer them i feel that the rcd deal is real vfm.

the deal would be better still if  rcd could offer the package without the servos .

Wat about the FUTABA 6EX FASST system? I think its not available in RCD n rotor..Full range means wat is the distance covered?

What is the specific question/concern about the 6EX FASST ?

Full range is somewhere around 600m to 1000m (possibly more).  Parkflyer range is around 300m.

I think to buy tat tx..is it good?

It is a good radio, but at the 6 channel level, the Spektrum DX6i has better features.  If you are in this for the long term and a one time investment, a 7 channel radio is a good idea.

but Spetrum doesn't have fail safe option..

6 Channel becomes almost necessary if you plan to fly CCPM Helis later. So an extra channel is always good.

Look for used 7-9 Channel FM transmitters which 'usually' sell cheap and convert them to 2.4Ghz using 3rd party module like those from Assan and Corona etc.

Not sure where you came across that one, but it does have failsafe.

7 channels are needed for a governor on nitro helis, and in general, the level of software features are fairly significant between 6 and 7 channel radios (more mixing options, more switches, timer options etc). For a one time investment, the extra 5K is well worth it (going from 6 to 7 channels).
 

Most of the today's Computer Radios , including the latest 2.4G, have Fail safe. The problem is there are lot many reports the Fail safe not working at the moment of need. There has been just  too many reports of such DSM2 receivers (Spektrum). Search and read on to arrive at any conclusion.

can i use futaba servos with spektrum?

in 7ch which one is good futaba or spektrum? btw most of the indian stores(almost all) have max 6ch tx only..whr can i buy?

yes you can use any servo with any receiver
servo only requirement is that the receive must be able to give
sufficient current to  the servo  which is in milliamps

It is mostly a personal choice.  My suggestion on this was posted earlier in this same thread.

The big disadvantage with Futaba was the price of park flyer receivers, but that has changed lately.  In general, FASST is considered technically better (FHSS versus DSSS). There was a heat issue with Futaba receivers, which has also since been fixed.  In terms of advantages for Futaba 7C, things like spring loaded trainer switch, a rotary switch, throttle activated timer etc are useful.  Spektrum's model-match is a good thing that Futaba lacks.  Accessing the menu items is easier on the Futaba. 

Overall, you cannot go wrong with either.  While you are at it, take a look at the Airtronics SD8 too... in terms of "discovered and fixed radio issues", they have the cleanest record.

Hobby King is coming up with Al-cheapo  Clones 6-channel DSM2 receivers for as little as $15 for Jr/Spektrum. such cheap receiver for Futaba is yet to hit the market.

Isn't Model match a hassle if you juggle same receiver with different Models like I do ? If ones uses these cheaper Cloned Rx, only then having a separate Rx for each model becomes viable.

But then who told R/C is a economical hobby ? Huhhhh

What about this radio?
http://cgi.ebay.in/RCFORALL-KDS-2-4-Ghz-7-CHANNEL-COMPUTERISED-RADIO-/110548957606?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item19bd3b39a6

buy it if you want to start with 2.4Ghz
NICEEEE deal

It is very good choice in terms of affordability, and also if you are testing the waters (if you are unsure about being in RC in the long term).  The main disadvantage is the small size display.  Having a bigger display helps to see the trim settings for all the 4 controls in one screen, and it also helps with ease of programming.

If you have the money, and you are in the hobby for the long term, go for one with a bigger display, otherwise this is a good choice.

BTW, I am surprised that nobody else has responded on this thread ! It would help at least to reassure the person posing the question, so that the opinions are not just one sided / personal

If you are on a very tight budget, not sure if going to continue in R/C for long and fully sure would never enter Nitro/Gasser, this Radio is a decent start. The aspects  like  reliability and support of Receivers (in the long run) are the few issue with these Tx.

Anwar, I think Sai recently added this Radio. I searched his site some time back for similar thread and only the 4Ch /Rs4200 set was listed. One good thing, Sai is offering few stuff on 0% EMI !! Kudos Sai Sir!

Just to clarify, between Futaba and Spectrum, the Spectrum is a better choice at 6 channel level, and Futaba is a better choice at 7 channel level (IMHO).

So then,I will go with this.A dyeah,I am almost certain that I will never go into nitro.Thanks a lot guys.I guess the small display would not be much of a problem.I will be getting it along with my multiplex easy star.Mr.Sai has been very helpful.But I will get mine somewhere in mid July brcause there is no stock.

nd yeah,the e is one  ore thing.I WILL STICK TO RC.

I'll be in RC for a long term and my main interest is planes(both nitro n electric),in future i'll go to helis also..So is 6ch enough or 7ch is must for a life time investment..Wat about the binding problem in spektrum n heat problem in futaba now? Have they rectified?

The big question is your budget.  If you have the funds, I would suggest getting the Futaba 7channel.

Both issues are fixed, just make sure you don't get stuff from old stock.  The Spektrum issue was solved a long time back, and the Futaba issue (which is fairly uncommon BTW, and is more of a "feel safe" thing) affected only the previous series of FS receivers.  If you are getting an FS series receiver, ask the seller to verify that there is a "dot" next to the antennas (as seen here : http://www.rcindia.org/radios-and-receivers/are-you-still-skeptical-about-2-4ghz-radio-systems/msg14206/#msg14206)
