    the main difference for helis is really the governor screen.

    the case feel and quality of the gimbles is much much better.

      ah

      Well been offered one for 100 pounds...

      I do admit i'd prefer a more solid feel in my hands as the 7c feels naff after a FF8

        I would go with the FF9 if it were me, it is a much better radio than the FF7, far more functionally rich, and really nice to fly a heli with.

        One thing you dont mention is if it is the older FF9C or the newer FF9C Super?

        Cheers,
        Pete.

            I have had both the older FF9C in the past and I have a newer FF9C Super now for training. When I got the first one I was able to just sit down a program it without even picking up the manual, it is that easy to work with.

            The extra channels will certainly help with your future camera work too.

            Cheers,
            Pete.
