Radio Requirements Radios: Hobbies & Helis & its distributors carry various lines of helicopter radios. Any radio that supports EMS/CCPM Mixing will work fine. We recommend using an eight-channel or better radio, although a six-channel radio is all that is required. Servos: This is the single most important function of the helicopter.
