Ive got a FlySky GT2 for each of my vehicles. Couldnt beat the price of 18 bucks shipped each. They work flawlessly. They come with the smallest reciever i have ever seen. I would not hesitate to buy one again.


Built Ford tough, with Chevy stuff.

I use a Flysky GT3-B. Great 3 channel 2.4GHz radio. Got it for $35 from Hobbypartz, though I think they went up to $40. I also bought a 3s 2200mah lipo so I didn't have to use AA's in it. It will display the voltage of the pack on the screen so I know when to charge it.
My only complaint is that there is a bit of lag at long distances, though that happens to my GT2 also.

I run the hk-310 http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...d%5FRadio.html

I really think the gt3b looks cheap with the plastic chrome knobs and gawdy large screen.

People love their futabas (they have to, they paid more for them than my first car cost) and this radio has fhss just like futabas.

If you don't set epa's they have a 3 channel model with no computer functions for even cheaper, and a cheap non-computer 2 channel model. Receivers are under $10
