looking into buying a new radio.

Nomadio React getting outdated? IMO all other radios are playing catch-up.

Sure, the RXs are expensive, but that's because they aren't just simple RXs. They are transceivers, where they communicate with the TX (which is also a transceiver). No other surface radio on the market has this feature that I am aware of. Spektrum comes close, but their telemetry system is separate from the radio.

I totally agree. It is what i use and love it.

I run a tq3 with a custom 3rd channel switch I found at radio shack. It is a much better radio than anything else listed. It has a cushy steering wheel, and a special shape on the handle that fits my hand like a glove. It also has these special crystal thingys, not sure what they are, but they sound expensive. Expensive sounding stuff always makes products better! Plus it is a cool grey color, that makes it work better too. It even has an adjustable length antenna, so if you are short, you can still get it to broadcast height.

I agree.

BTW, after the past weekend I think even less of the Spektrum stuff and yes even the dx3r. 3 dragsters lost signal, which resulted in major damage. It was with 2 nitro and 1 electric vehicle. The DX3R looks nice and finally all digital throughout like Airtronics and Nomadio(and believe that both run @100hz frame rate), but if it looses signal within 2 seconds.......pffff what a waste of money. My airtronics has not let me down yet.

I'll be getting a DX3R since it's backwards compatible with all my current receivers.

I won't try to sway your decision, but the Nomadio React has that feature as well .
