Biggest issues with the cheaper radios are range and reliability. Fly sky makes epic examples of this. You can buy 4 radios of the same model same day from the same shop, some like my gt3-c are fantastic don't glitch but cant go more then 100 yards from the reciever without loosing signal. Next one works fine, the third never programs right, the fourth works perfect for about a year then up and decides it doesn't want to work anymore. It's not the hard and fast rule, just what seems to happen, rather often. Often enough it makes most of us air on the side of caution with larger rigs. Think of it like this you just bought a very expensive, very fast, powerful car. Then you realize you cant afford full coverage insurance, so you go out and get liability insurance. Go out for a drive in the rain and wreck your car into another car, totalling both. Now your out the money for your car, and are facing liability and legal repercussions.
