ground radio question

[Greywolf74]

If I were looking to upgrade my Futaba 4PL to something a little more current, what would you guys suggest? Budget wise id like to stay at or under $300.

Is the MT4 still a good transmitter? Is there a newer version of it out? I know that Futaba updated the 4PL with the 4PLS but I can't remember if the MT4 was ever updated. Anyways I'm open to your guys thoughts

Unless you are needing any of the new features and the 4PL is working fine, why bother to upgrade?

I'm still using a 4PK despite Futaba offering several upgraded options over the years. It ain't broke so I haven't fixed it.

I will admit being enticed by the new 4PX though.

I agree with Robmob. The newer models look pretty neat but haven't given me any reason to upgrade my Futaba 4PL. Love that thing!

I'm also pretty stoked about the 4PX, I was just about to do the 4PL, since I suddenly need 4 channels, but amain sent out an email about pre-ordering the 4PX, an I'm starting to think that if I just save a few more bucks I can have a go at the latest model. Plus 30% faster sounds interesting, not that I do anything that requires 30% faster.

I suppose your right...I guess I just liked all the bells and whistles when I upgraded from teh DX6i to the DX8 and was thinking of upgrading my 4PL but I suppose its not important. I just wish my 4PL was backlight though lol.

The 4PLS is back lighted and it has telemetry. I have the 4PLS and I like it so far, been going thru the manual & checking out the features.

I don't think so, but there is a 4PX http://www.futaba-rc.com/systems/futk4905-4px/index.html. It's the replacement for the 4 PKS
