My first RC was a 10-channel reed system. Bang-bang, you manually pulsed the sticks to flop the control surface in either direction. Circa 1965. Weighed a ton. 'Pulse' the sticks to get 'proportional' control. 'Reed' refers to the tuned strips that vibrated in response to a particular audio tone sent by the transmitter. 2 channels per surface.
