What do you think about the radio now that you've had it a few days? I'm gonna order one Friday.

EPA's, sub-trim, 3 pos 3rd, 20 model memory, etc. Plus it only requires 4 AA's to power it. | |

Not sure exactly what Spektrum had in mind for them, but if you want something to use the black discs for that's actually useful, put them concave side up under the front tires of your crawler while you set up the steering end points. The wheels won't drag on the floor so you can see exactly how far the steering servo is moving and you don't have to try to hold the crawler in one hand and adjust the radio with the other. |
