Transmitters

So I'm thinking its time to upgrade my Transmitter to one of the 2.4gHz variety.

What is my best option? I would like to not spend an arm and a leg on it but want one that has everything I need. I'm hoping to race 10 scale pan car in April so ill be needing 2 receivers and money left over to afford the pan car.

I would look into a DX2 or a DX3 the older models should cheaper
to buy

Thats a shame I offered you my DX2 a while ago for cheap.

Sorry Jon, I didnt have much money then and hadnt come up with the idea to race 1/10 pan as well.

So in surfing the web i came across the Spectrum Dx2S. Opinions?

two receivers

Danny · December 30, 2009, 07:15:59 PM

only problem with the Dx3e is that it only has 1 model memory.

Gorden · December 30, 2009, 07:19:03 PM

opps did see that. Maybe keep a eye on E-bay

BCbud · December 30, 2009, 07:22:44 PM

I was looking at that one. Sounds pretty good with 5 model mem. and telemetry. I do not see anywhere saying it comes with a reciever though, just specs for servo???
Remember + freight, exchange and posible duties at the border ontop of asking price. I just recived my charger today and it cost the seller $32.00 US to ship it to me from Tacoma WA priority post!!!

Seems like there are quite a few available on E Bay, wish I knew a bit more what I was looking for though.

Falcon · December 30, 2009, 07:33:41 PM

That one gord posted looks good. If you decide to buy on ebay just watch the shipping prices. People tend to inflate shipping. RC mush,mart or market would be better. I know you were a little broke before. No biggy.
