Best radio???

[Ryden]

Just got a rock crawler and was wondering what the best radio to run for a crawler with rear steer and dig?? Thanks in advance

[PEDEcrawlerguy]

spektrum DX6i... for the win...

or a Futaba 4pks ( or kps , whatever it is)

[Greatscott]

The is an equation for figuring out the best radio:

More $ = Better Radio

[Timmahh]

any decent 3 cnl radio will work, just Y (maybe revering Y) on the steering for the rear steering and use 3rd chnl for your Dig.


but if you want to do it right, i would suggest a 4chnl 2.4 flavor of radio.

you can do the Futaba 4PK for 480.00 or for 250ish, you can do the Nomadio React, which will do everything the 4PK will do, has onboard telemetery, and imho, is every bit as good a radio as the 4pk, if not better, and cheaper.

If your willing to spend a couple extra bucks, I agree that the Spektrum DX6i is the way to go.

lol if you dont have the money you could just split the front and back steering and get a tq3 radio and just mod it for the dig

I just traded in my DX3R for a Futaba 6EX stick radio. I dont see myself ever swithing back The 6EX is about 200.00 depending on where you shop.

yeah stick radios are kind of best for rock crawling i would say but i just cant break my love for pistols

I believe this is the route I will be taking too, I'll upgrade later. (just to get me on the rocks quicker)

I love to run atleast a 5 channel 2.4ghz radio, just like that controls and options to add to it. Like Dx6i and others

I just posted this in a similar thread. IMO this rocks for the price!!!
