Any radio in your list is OK. Get the one you can afford or the best deal on!

IMHO The Optic 6 represents best value for $ with the greatest list of features and being the most user friendly.
Email direct for an .xls comparison chart of all features of the Eclipse 7, Optic 6, Futaba 6EXA, Futaba 7CAP, Futaba 9CAP, Futaba 9CAP, RD6000, JR652, JR3810 - this chart has been sent to many people who have confirmed the accuracy. A small online comparison of just the Optic 6, JR XP6102, RD6000 Super, Futaba 7C (rather than 6EXA that has the fewest features of the aforementioned) =

shown is the an added benefit of both the Optic 6 and Eclipse 7 is the large screen and large size of the display letters and numbers - the only TX on which I can read the screen and make adjustments, especially at the field, without searching for my reading glasses.
Manuals for each TX and other information is also available at = Alan's Hobby, Model & RC Web Links

Not comparable to those listed - a separate unique unit. Polks Tracker 3 is 8ch, sold with 6ch RX & one servo only
http://216.86.38.243/POLKS/itemdesc.asp?CartId={54E0BF2D-94D8-4021-8533-237C4CEVERESTB3850C}&ic=PLK13025&eq=&Tp= Jury is still out with regard to perceived value as PLL based RX that I have tested to date have had a short life span (less than 15 months) before failing to reset or recognise TX or similar problems. I have not yet held one of the new Tracker 3 and await the opportunity. regards Alan.
Very nice radio :), now i will make choice to buy optic or mx12.
thanks again Realdo

If you are starting out, maybe a trip to your local field is in order.
If you want to buddy box with an instructor find out what is bein used. I just mention this since the nearest hobby shop always trys t sell the brand they carry. Unfortunately, most guys at our field fl another brand. Then the newbie is constantly seaching for a buddy box or ends up buying one
