Hi Darren

I have a Futaba 6ex transmitter plus battery and charger I could let you have for £60 inc. postage. That has a 6 model memory.

I'm in Didcot but I have family in Swindon and may be visiting them this weekend or next so you could collect and save on the postage.

The Radio can easily be switched between modes, at the moment it is throttle on the left stick. I'm in no great rush to sell it.

I used to be a member of the Mid Thames club but I took up full size Gliding 7-8 years ago which now occupies most of my weekends so I don't play with the boats at the moment but still get the enjoyment of making them.
