Spektrum 6i for TREX 600?

Just wondering - is there anything wrong with using a Spektrum 6i for a TREX 600? Thing is, I already have the 6i that came with my Blade 400 and would love to not have to buy another Controller.

Re: Spektrum 6i for TREX 600?

The 6i will work perfectly for a 600 as long as you're not going to go nitro or gas with a governer (you need an extra channel for that), if you have gotten used to the feel and balance of a certain Tx it's not a bad idea to stick to the same model for added confidence.

I actually posted the same question on a different board and got good response from "most" of the people who responded, there was a few people who said that the 6i was a cheap plastic clunky thing that would make other fliers think you don't know what your doing, my thought was, hell, it's a 2.4 ghz that "I" like and I dont care about bling any other fashion type statements I'd be making while I'm flying.

hope this helps
