Nice! First thing you might notice these days is that almost everyone has gone to 2.4GHz transmitters, so no more big aerials and no more peg boards! Of course the old FM gear still works as well as it ever did so no overriding reason to change right away.
So you still have those models?

Here's a few of my older models I had

Yeh still have the Magnatilla and Heli.. The Spitfire need the retracts rebuilding as they broke the mountings on the 1st flight and has never flown since. I repaired the wing but never got to it afterwards.

And this is the Hexa i'm building. Yeh I could still use the JR i have the heli set up on, Why waste the radio it's not worth much these days but it's a good one.

Your Tx most likely has a module bay in the back.. yes?
In that case you could easily put a 2.4GHz DSMX module in it. That would allow you to use Spektrum and Spektrum compatible receivers and would do away with the requirement for the big long antenna on the receiver (which is difficult to accommodate on a multi rotor). Only problem is they all seem to be out of stock at the moment: OrangeRX DSMX DSM2 Compatible 2.4Ghz Transmitter Module V1.2 (JR/Turnigy/Taranis compatible)
