We all know the pain. You watch an American YouTuber review a brand new foamie, check the price tag, and think, "Hey, that’s not bad." Then you look at your local hobby shop website outside the US, and your jaw hits the floor.
To track how badly international pilots get hit by the "geography tax," we need a universal constant. Forget Big Macs. Welcome to the Timber Evo Index (TEI).

Very proud of this pic and I like the way I edited this one.
These are mine⬆️
No prize, no money just a nice wholesome post. Share your best 3 RC pics and I will announce the winner!
Would appreciate plenty of tips and will answer all your questions. I am using the TX16S MK3 MAX and an ER6 and will explain the entire radio setup too!
Pic is of my Xfly Twin 40mm cat.
I am relatively experienced. This is my current hangar. I have had a Timber before and might just get another one. Was also looking at the Freewing 64mm f22 and the Durafly tundra V3. Nothing bigger than 4s please as 6s batteries are too much.
I have the Xfly F14 Tomcat twin 40mm. Eflite mini apprentice. XK A300 staggerwing. Unknown brand 3s/4s 70mm goshawk. FMS T28 V4. I use the RadioMaster TX16S MK3 MAX (Black)
I would say that spektrum is the only option for beginners.
Third edf after habu ss and a f14 tomcat.
Got one for $100 brand new
Was daydreaming today and my first thought is what will a TX16S MK10 look like🤣. But just in general what will the hobby be like?
I've been flying for a while, and I genuinely don't understand why Spektrum is still so popular.
Compared to radios like the RadioMaster TX16S, Boxer, Futaba, Jeti, or even some FlySky systems, Spektrum seems expensive for what you get. Other brands often offer better gimbals, more features, protocol support, customization, and value.
If you fly Spektrum, what keeps you with the ecosystem? Is it just Horizon Hobby BNF compatibility, or are there other reasons I'm missing?
I'm interested in hearing from long-time Spektrum users as well as people who switched away from it. What made you stay or leave?
I am now in the "I can fly most things and need to pick a niche to obsess over" phase. Whats your faborite plane ever and why? What radio system do you use.
