COMMENTS:  Though the VFO Pogo is basically a four channel airplane,
           It does require mixing capabilities that you will not find on
           most four channel radios. For that reason you need a six or
           seven channel radio with electronic mixes, or the use of
           connectors to link the two rudder halves and elevator halves.
           The choice of radio is dependent on the brand of radio you
           use and its capabilities. The FutabaŽ 7C seven
           channel radio system is the minimum radio requirement
           within the Futaba line of radios. Other brands may offer you
           the required mixes in a six channel radio.

                                                                   jxs 10/09/09
