| No one has a 10C in hand yet. So the opinions here are just speculation.
The 10C is 2048 in FASST mode, contrary to the posting here. The x9093 is 2048 with a 9+ Channel rx. Absolutely no reason at all to favor one or the other.
The 10C is a jump similar to the 9303 over the 9C. It takes all the major functions and just goes a shade further. It's the advantage of coming to market later.
Where spektrum/jr is really shining right now is on releasing new and innovative products. The 9100ar, 7100, 7100r, 6300, 5023 reg, New 10A reg. All of these products address the niches for Heli, GS, F3A, and many of the higher end (serious?) sides of the hobby. Futaba pretty much says here is the big rx or the small one. Take em or leave em (oversimplified slightly).
If Futaba had their act together on rx's, they were a little more proactive and innnovative, and brought their costs in line. I'd dump my x9303 for a 10C in a second. But they have a long way to go.
Here's a link to the 10C features: http://2.4gigahertz.com/systems/futk9250.html
Here's the 9303 features (not terribly thorough): http://www.horizonhobby.com/Product...?ProdID=JRP2925
If the 10C had been around months ago I'd have bought it. Heck if the 12FG had been released on time (October) I'd have bought it. In the meantime I own a x9303 and Horizon has been kind enough to give me $400 in rx's. Not a bad deal at all.
