Scott, I have a Futaba 12FG, and while it does not have sliders in the center of the radio, near the main sticks, it does have a set of sliders along the sides of the radio, where you can easily move them with your thumbs, or index fingers from below. The sliders actually pivot at a central point (kind of like a knob, but they are more like double ended short sticks), and that is why your index fingers can adjust them from below, or your thumbs from above. Hard to explain, but they are comfortable to operated, and you can assign them to any channel you like using the programming features. They aren't self-centering, but they do have a neutral point. This radio is also 2.4 giga-hertz out of the box. Might be worth looking into. If you would like some pictures, I could get you some, to help you better understand those adjustable sliders/sticks.
