Looking for a Tx and Rx for a 1:12 Tamar, will have twin props / esc, bow thruster, working transom door and Y boat garage flaps, Moving radio mast.

Would this be any good?

I bought a 9X a while ago, it looked excellent value. However, it has one big drawback (for me at least) - although it says it has an 8 model memory, you cannot bind 8 receivers to it. You bind one, everything works fine, bind a second and the first is lost.... It can only be bound to one Rx at a time.
If you are only ever going to use this for a single model, this doesn't matter. If you expect to use the same Tx for two or more models, buy something else. I bought one of these (https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-tgy-i6-mode-2-afhds-transmitter-and-6ch-receiver.html?queryID=353b5476fc911e4f68828a0920b7048e&objectID=45922&indexName=hbk_live_magento_en_us_products) which does the job just fine.

Thanks for the information! I'll use for several models probably so I'll look at the radio you recommended.
