TheKodakman I always flew on 72 27 MHz was a flying frequency down south ..it was only used in cheap model cars an wat not ..I still fly my old whimpy oldtimer with my futaba am fg series radios my most advanced is only FM 72 MHz I haven moved to 2.4 yet but I think I'm gonna convert my old stuff to 2.4 too
Does anyone remember "Galloping Ghost"? It was a very early attempt to make single channel (Bang - bang) RC work as proportional control of both rudder and elevator. I had a "Matador" that I attempted to convert to this, it was comical becase basically both the rudder and elevtor "wobbled" either side of neutral causing the model to wobbly around. The wings of my Matador finally gave up and broke in two...

Ppl today have it so good with the fancy 2.4 set ups but back in the day it was a simpler time an more rewarding in many ways
