At least three of us at Datchet are experimenting with receivers that come with Radiomaster. It’s interesting to compare with the regular Futaba Receivers.

You’ll notice that the Radiomaster unit has only channels one to three that we need. The first implication seems to be a substantial physical size reduction.

The next thing that caught my attention was the absence of dangly wire radio antennae. I know, I know – we shall see how it goes and report back!!

Like the Tour de France cyclists, we are in a sport which recognises the sum of marginal gains. If you’re in a weight sensitive class like Marblehead, you might also be intrigued by the weight comparison:-

Interesting!
