Help with radio choice, Possible firestorm!

[Jeff H. Snider]

I used an 8013 for a while, but was really displeased by the fact
you can't use one switch for all your high rates.  Rudder, elevator,
and aileron are all on different switches, and no amount of muttering
and searching the net for tips and tricks will put them all onto
one switch.  Aside from that it was a fantastic tx.

Fortunately in 402 (which I'm now flying) you need to switch only
your rudder, for the stall turns, so an 8103 will work.  I knew I
would end up buying a 10X sooner or later, so I moved right on up
when the opportunity arose to buy one used, and I'm unconditionally
happy with it.  Perhaps the new 9X would suit me equally well, but
I got my 10X before it was announced.

And not coincidentally, I have that 8103 sitting around gathering
dust, if anyone is interested in buying it.
