So Who's Going to Get a Nomadio Sensor... - 09.03.2006, 09:13 PM

Now that it's ultra cheap?

At $269 you really can't go wrong IMO. I haven't purchased a new radio system for a couple of years now, and it seems like my MX-3 is biting the dust (decreased range, verified with two receivers and two crystal sets). My money will either go to this or to a battery setup for my 1/8 buggy, but it's looking like it'll go to this new radio because it's so cheap!

Is that really a full system for $269? It's $459 at Tower... that's a killer deal.

I would love to have real time temps displayed on my radio.

This deal is cheaper than getting the full eagle tree setup...

Can the nomadio run on the spektrum rx? I have them and don't want to go thru the hassle of getting all new rx again.

I don't think so...I think you have to use the trancievers.

With the latest beta software from Nomadio, you can use Spektrum receivers, but you need to plug your radio into a computer to make the change to DSM (Nomadio calls it "Da Slow Mode" because Horizon/Spektrum trademarked the 'DSM' acronym). You also need to plug in again when you want to switch back to "Nomadio" mode.
As I mentioned, it's only with their beta software and it's a non-supported configuration, so you're on your own when using it, but several people have posted on Nomadio's forum saying it works just fine.

For those who have the nomadio. Do you think it is worth the money?
How do you like them?
