i have one of the these radios,
they are rubbish, be ok for bashing , but for racing, hopeless,
i got heaps of interference when i was on the drives stand , when 10 other people are on 2.4 also
the steering feeling is terrible all blocky , its not smooth at all

I found the same radio at landseaair site, you say it's rubbish, how about anyone else? Looking for a cheap reliable easy to use radio, Right now i'm looking at the airtronics MX3 2.4 or the traxxas 2.4

the hobbyking radio is about as simple and easy to use as it gets. it comes pre-bound from the factory and is has epa and trim knobs. it it as simple as it gets.

another note: it doesn't look nearly as bad in person IMO. it looks like shit on the website, but i actually like the color scheme in person. also, this radio doesn't feel cheap like i expected it to. it feels more solid than my HPI and traxxas radios. the feel and quality of the materials is similar to my airtronics mx-3. my JR radio still feels more solid though.
