I wish they were still in the RC business.

As it is my primary is a futaba 4PL. Can't be beat for the price.

I have the flysky as well, it just doesn't feel robust enough to hold up over the long run and is not near as user friendly as the 4pl.

Previously a dx3 but it had shitty range, now dx3s. I have bought the hk-gt2 to sell with cars. Very simple but like Josh said - they work flawlessly.

Been running a Airtronics 3ch Receiver FHSS for 3 years now with no issues... got a Turnigy 1450mAh 3S 11.1v Transmitter Lipo for it which saves on batteries nicely...

How many models will that handle? Or, is it just a basic radio like say the old traxxas TQ? I know its 2.4g, Just asking if it's a single model or if it can handle multiple without re-binding

Im not sure how many models it will handle, maybe just one without rebinding? But for the price i just bought one for each vehicle, that way if someone wants to drive one of my rigs they can. Here is a link to them. Shipping is decently fast, and sometimes its free. http://www.hobbypartz.com/rccarradios.html

Futaba 4 PKS.

DX3S Love it...simple to program. My only gripe is the backlighting.

Semi Pro 01.19.2012 11:20 PM

still using the DX3R but im looking to upgrade soon

Backlit dx3s. Love the telemetry and I already had bunch of spek receivers sooo. Also run a life 2s with diodes and poof no more aa's. Although the alkaline batteries did last forever in it it seemed to go dead at inopertune times.

I run the Futaba 4pk, you couldnt pay me to use another radio! anyone who uses a 4pk or 4pks knows what im talking about and if you have or havent used one and you dont like it your lying to yourself because you dont want to drop the coin on one.

josh9mille 01.20.2012 12:50 PM

$500 for the initial system and $90 bucks for aditional receivers? That is totally insane. I have used one for about 20 minutes and yes it worked great! Just as good as my 18 dollar system :)

snellemin 01.20.2012 01:09 PM

500 bucks is a bit much for me just to go straight. Now I would consider the Fat Tuba if I also owned boats, crawlers and tanks.
