Back when I started, in the 70's my first radio was 110 bucks about $475 in today's dollars. This radio system is many ordinals better than that base four channel, non computer system. Just a few years ago a 2100 3s LiPo was around $75. Now we get them for around $15. Brushless motors, ESC's and ARF's and BNF's now cheap... I don't think they have any issues at this price point. They have systems for less and more. Budgets are different as you point out but the hobby is really a deal at this day and time... IMHO we are very lucky to have better values today than I have ever seen in all my years of the hobby. Mike |

Our adds say "Telemetry for All". You can buy our $99 mz-10 5ch radio which provides telemetry notifications through audio tones or you can expand it with our Bluetooth module and get full graphics and voice telemetry on your SmartPhone. Our $149 mz-12 6ch has build in voice telemetry as well as LCD screen that shows telemetry. The radio has mixers, flight modes, wing mixers and a lot of more software features all well below $300. Even better, 300 bucks will get you 3 mz-10 or 2 mz-12 now how is that for a deal for the masses... |

Hey Donk...Don't be lazy. Get off yer "a$$"
 As far as prices and value concerns, Mr Graupner USA gave a great run down of the range of radios available from Graupner. If you really want added value on a lower priced radio set, Graupner has programmable receivers and servos. You can program mixing and end points in the receiver and servos. This will allow you, for example, to run a full house 6 channel sailplane with a 4 channel transmitter. How's that for value? Full telemetry features and HOTT technology for all receivers from the 2 channel model to the 16 channel model. Some receivers have built in varios and gyros too without the need for add-on sensors. Don't forget the ability to bind one transmitter to two receivers at a time for great channel expandibility. In my mind a better value is hard to find out there these days. In addition to the new MZ series radios the MX and MC series should not be over looked. They may not have the flashy color touch screen but they do have the traditional programming and feature set that Graupner has been using for many years and is tried and true. The MX-20 was used by Benedict Fiegl to win the 2012 F3J championship with the GR-12L receiver. All with HOTT technology and full telemetry. |

Yes you can add it also to the MX-20. It has its own BT module that can be placed inside the radio. It will give you BT headset or SmartPhone connection to be used with our telemetry App.

Well I have joined the MZ-24 club. It's all your fault Mike. Looking forward to learning the system and utilizing more reasonably priced telemetry.
