I may be changing myself. I was in my LHS and talking with the owner and he put a 8FG in my hands.............big mistake!!!
Actually, the radio fit my hands perfectly and I didn't feel like I was reaching to move the sticks. Especially with right rudder and left cyclic. It was less work to flip the switches as well. I also like the weight and balance. One of the drawbacks for me is it doesn't have model match so extra care is needed to make sure the right aircraft is loaded. I'm looking at the 14SG also. I don't need that many channels but it has telemetry, stick calibrations, voice alerts, complete switch assignability, and the list goes on.
It is even more tempting that a guy at my club has both and offered me great deals on either with the Rx.....
