Try and get the owners manual. They can be kind of intimadating at first,but are EZ to setup once you get used to the menus.I LOVE my DX3R  |

Check the serial #, here is the spectrum site that explains the issue and what # to look for and were to find them.http://www.spektrumrc.com/Articles/A...ArticleID=1784 Also if it is the SR3100 reciever make sure the antenna has not been cut. here is the link explaining that issue. http://www.spektrumrc.com/Articles/A...ArticleID=1780 Hope it works out for ya. I love mine |

I've had mine over a year now with no issues. I have used it for off road clay track, off road bashing, on road speed car, drifting, and now for crawling. I love how light it is and everything it can be programmed to do. Half of my drift cars tuning is through the radio. If the rx is a 3100 and the antenna has been cut you can get a replacement for $6 on horizon hobby. I had one get sheared in half in a high speed impact and have done that replacement. |

you can ask how the range is..... had mine for about 8 months and went only about 50 yards. I didnt care because all i had was my crawler. got a slash, needed range. (Spektrum is taking care of it tho, sent it in 2 weeks ago, a new unit is on the way back-at least thats what they said) ask him for the serial and check to see if its one of the "defective" ones. |
