Cheap tranny for phoenix

[moyesboy]

What is the cheapest box with sticks that I can use to interface to phoenix?
I need a switch for idle up (just norm and idle up will do), and a throttle hold switch preferably - but I could make do with only the 4 channels.

This is because my 4 year old son is starting to play with my dx7

...and he is no Justin Chi (yet)

Maybe I could use an old wlkera 6ch tx that somone must have lying about?

I managed to pick up an old style DX6 quite cheaply, which works well on the sim. It also has the same stick feel as my DX7, which I find helps to make it more 'real'

I bought an esky 4ch tx from buzzflier for £20. Worked ok, although did require the sticks to be smoothed down so you didnt have to impale your fingers on it every time. No idle up/hold switches though.

Then again, I have yet to get those to work properly on my Futaba T6EX in pheonix anyway.

Give www.fast-lad.co.uk a ring, they may still have some E-Sky TX (minus crystal and aerial) left. I bought two around £4 each and they work great on Phoenix (for the price).

I bet that was considered state of the art when you started flying!!
