Transmitter selection advice needed

As my tank family is growing I would like one 2.4ghz transmitter that I can use for all tanks.
I don't really want to spend a huge amount on a Futaba type.
I'm looking at up to £50, I'm bidding on a 6CH 2.4GHZ Radio-link 6EX at present, does anyone know if this will do the job before I commit to buy?

Elmod in two and thought I'd be the first to have a look at the SLU package which should arrive next week. I'm going to build a STuG III and put the SLU in it.

if youve got the full prop elmod the tx needs to have a three way prop switch on the 5th or 6th channel or if your using the elmod with the heng long boards the tx you are looking at will be fine

Hi ice
Have full prop elmod eco and have no idea what you are talking about? can you dumb it down a bit for me and suggest a transmiter model that will do the job. I've just got into the 2.4ghz game and no very little except for the mammoth task I encountered when trying to bond my jamara with my first elmod.
Thanks,
Mic..

I don't want to get one until I've done some more research. Can you guys out there let me know what your using for mutiple tanks? What is the most cost effective 2.4 ghz transmitter for use with elmod tanks and can you use any 2.4 reciever or do they need to be the same brand as the tx?
