For what youl spend on the servonaught and a cheep radio you could buy yourself a good radio and a Cross sound unit. The cross sound unit is about $80 and sound just like the servonaught SMX. Cross also has a nice light system to and sometimes you can get a deal on both the sound and light unit together.

Just some food for thought.

Yeah, and it must not be too bad because people are flying with them. So if they can be trusted in planes, they're good enough for surface use.
